A guy I know just got mugged. Walking back from Finnegan's at 3 am, he got jumped on just as he got to his car. Broken nose, three broken teeth, smashed lips, fingers needing stitches, and a concussion. Serious shite this. Plus he had to drive himself to the police station after it was over. Lost his money, watch, camera, phone, and PDA.

Now what's scary is this guy's a rugby player. Not to overglorify them or anything, but rugger buggers don't generally look like they'd roll over and play dead at the first sign of trouble. These are the kind of guys who look like they have their faces stomped on for fun. The stud marks can be a huge hint. And this fellow's no different.

So if a guy like that can be targeted for a spot of after-pub mugging, what about a girl like me who probably weighs half what he does? And without even a single boot stud imprint on my face to scare the would-be predators away. I've walked along that same road past midnight more than a few times now. Alone. And pissed (just a little). So I probably wouldn't notice anything until I woke up twenty minutes later with my blood more outside than in.

Scary shite. Will it be my turn next time? Should I invest in a can of pepper spray? Knowing myself, I'm more likely to spray myself in the face than the bastard attacking me. Maybe a little switchblade? What if I drop it and it's used against me?

There's nothing foolproof! *WAIL*

Or maybe I'm just getting myself worked up over nothing. Maybe it wasn't even a mugging! We'd just played our rival team earlier that day, and everyone knows that Finnegan's is where the Dogs go to get smashed.

Hmmm, highly suspicious this.

He should considered himself rather not so "unlucky" as in.. the muggers didnt take his car as well.. they could even do that if they wanted to.. And for the self-defense bit, try to lay your hand onto one of those electric gun thinggy..

frightening.
I'm scared of that type of thing. I don't know what I would do if I got mugged. I can barely help lift up crowd surfers... I want a can of pepper spray. and a rape whistle.

evil is all around
man, random violence can happen to anyone anywhere. We knew a bloke a couple of years ago who was standing at a Tube platform and had some random nutter come up and bite him. He needed about a dozen shots afterwards. Earlier this year I had some crazy, high bitch attack me in the ladies at a pub the moment I walked in. I had to lock myself in a cublicle. I'm /all/ for legalizing pepper spray. (Although I had some in high school and only succeeding in using it once....on myself.)

quite true
even more reason to have one of the guys walk me to my car then. at least i can divert any unwanted attention to him.
