On the street, the fear of those walking next to you. In traffic, violence that doesn’t stop. There are people willing to display their most primitive side everywhere and at all times. On social media, insults give a measure of violence that often begins at home, in the relationship between parents and children.
It is unfair to demand security from governments in a state of war that we ourselves created.
This is not a new scenario. If violence is everywhere, including at school, it is necessary to redefine the concept of public security, where the police stop being the main actor and act as a mere supporting actor.

Violence is also a product of divisions, not just political, but of a lack of understanding of how to exercise certain rights. The legislators themselves instrumentalize violence by creating rights that benefit only one side in the battle of the sexes – the side that can do more, including the one that can accuse without proof.
