 Thank you, ITW, for once again not being able to resist the urge to talk about me.Anyways, inferno, I don't know what the laws are in Canada, but look them up, or sit down with a lawyer and go over them. You want to know what amount of force you're allowed to use to defend yourself under what circumstances, as well as what you can use to defend yourself with. When you get mugged, there are a few possible outcomes. You can either (A) give the mugger your money, or (A) not give the mugger your money, and defend yourself using force. In either situation, you have the ability to (a) succeed or (b) fail. In situation "Aa," you give the mugger your money, and you go home in one piece. In situation "Ab," you give the mugger your money, and you go home in a box. In situation "Ba," you defend yourself, you go home in one piece, but the mugger goes home in a box. In situation "Bb," you still go home in a box. In three out of the four possible outcomes, someone dies. In two out of the four outcomes, you die. So, what would I do? I don't know. It depends.I'd recommend that you do some research into all applicable laws, and it wouldn't be a bad idea to do some research into concealed weapon carry. In my state, it's legal to carry a concealed weapon (some require proper licensing, others don't). | ||

The next day, I saw him in class and asked him what he did with my watch. He said, "I don't have it. I gave it back to you!" I knew he was lying and I was thinking of fighting him even though he's a fucking football player & wrestler. To my great relief and enjoyment. The idiot wore the watch the next class we had together. I confronted him and he asked me if he could buy it for $5. I just said, "Fuck you", got my watch back and went my way. | ||

No, you can turn your back on them and let them knock the shit out of you while they swipe that mp3 player youre so bravely blasting. Theres a difference between being brave, and being stupid. Next time avoid them or call the cops, instead of thinking that your balls will save your ass. | ||

First they tried to sell us some weed, when we declined they pulled up small bat and "kindly" asked us to give them our money. I gave them my cigarettes, said "here you go, dra åt helvete" (fuck off in swedish) then kept on walking.. No biggie. My friends got away without giving them anything aswell. | ||

Right now, muggers are more or less gone (and bandits are either dead or integrated into the government machine), and the thing you have to be aware of are pickpocketers. Here comes the first russian rule: Whenever someone smiles at you, check your wallet. However, I've had an incident recently with a subway robber (a guy who grasps a woman's purse and runs out of the train like mad right before the doors close), he was doing his job but the girl he robbed was fast enough to run out of the train before it departed. I stood in his way and just acted as an obsactle. He didn't expect resistance, apparently, so, even though he was like 1,5x larger than me, he just stood there with hands loose while I was taking the purse back. He realized how stupid he was about 10 seconds later, broke free and ran away. These fuckers don't expect resistance, physical prowess hardly matters. That's unless we're talking about crazy marijuana niggers in Harlem, the best thing you can do in that case is indeed comply and hope for the best. | ||

I believe him  To the OP, I don't think turn on the music louder and pretend not to hear is a good idea. You must be aware of what is happening around you in case you must start tu run/defend yourself. Just pretend you do not hear, but actually you must be very aware. I get mugged everywhere I go to, with different outcomes, from being a hero to being beaten up. I have a magnet or something for that. | ||

Most of them don't want to fight, and are actually weak from my experience they just look for somebody who would give them money without any trouble. People had tried to mug me only couple of times, I once give money when I was like 14. It depends on who try to mug you most will give up after some talking I never fight whit any of them I just told them that I don't have money and I got little aggressive (verbally) when they want to search I give them reason to justify of giving up (no reason to got in trouble whit he he may not even have any money, we better look for somebody else), reason don't have to be very logic any is better then none. I never meet anybody that try to mug that I would be really afraid of. I laugh in face of 2 of them and just walk away becouse they were smaller them me and looked weak, they did nothing, they didn't even say anything after I start laughing. | ||

Compare to muggers in china this is nothing. i came across ppl that would shout stuff like "stop or i fucking kill you" and they would search your underwear for money -_- those assholes are much harder to deal with.. Muggers in China are likely physically pathetic and you clobber them if they attempt anything silly. Basically, I ignore them for as long as it's practically safe. I don't respond physically unless absolutely necessary, but I would sooner punch a mugger than submit to threats. Substitute mugger with mother for the above paragraph and you get a fairly decent summary of my family life. My own experiences with mugging: None. Although some related experiences occurred. In Kingston I was assaulted by a crazy man, not over money but over my "disrespect to him," or some such thing. In Prague I was approached by a woman who told me she would give me a blowjob on the street for 200 Crowns, and then tried to reach into my pocket for my wallet. | ||

sure, if everyone went around punching their mothers, life would be easy. but most of us refrain, moltke. In the end you deal with mothers the way you deal with tigers: you avoid fighting, but if it's either you or her, you try your utmost to make it her. | ||

Short answer: They've told us for 70 years that the capitalists were pigs, and then they said: hey! let's all become capitalists! Long answer: I am sorry but I am studying and I don't have the time nor the skills to make an appropriate presentation.

Would be a very interesting subject though and I would like to discuss it maybe in another thread. Speaking on the experience, I've been bullied a few times by random older kids on the streets when I was a kid, but that can be hardly classified as mugging. However, one of my friends has been abit less lucky - he ran into the wrong guy and was basically hunted for about a week. Another one of my friends was an eye-witness of a different thing in the higher classes - he was sitting with his friends, drinking beer (ah, the sweet times when drinking in public places was not prohibited and noone cared if you're 18 or not) and saw two girls coming by. They've thrown some pretty rude comments about the girls' appearance, the girls went by. Later he went for a piss and to by cigarettes and when he returned, he saw his friends lying on the ground in puddles of blood. When he was away, a black Cherokee stopped near the place, two guys with baseball bats came out and pretty much fucked everyone. Probably not bandits, but still says something about the mindsets of the time. Murder has been reported near my house twice, there was a time I heard gunshots. And of course the neverending TV reports on businessmen blowing up in their cars or, even more commonly, shot down by a killer when nearing the doors of their flats. Businessman was a very dangerous profession back then, keke. There was a widespread joke about school juniors: - Hey, Misha, what are you gonna become when you grow up? - A killer. Well, that may sound overexaggerated, but 1990's in Russia were pretty wild. | ||

"Hey man, you got any money?" "Uh, no." "C'mon man, we just need a little bit." At this point one of them stepped in front of me with his hand in his sweater pocket. "Hand it over man, I'm packin'" "No, that's your finger." "No way man, I'm serious. Hand it over." "How about... no. And that's definitely your finger" "C'mon man, don't make me do dis." He never took his finger out of his pocket, which wasn't even a large enough pocket to conceal a gun in anyway. I reached into my pocket and grabbed some change (pennies nickels and dimes) maybe around fifty cents. I clenched it in my fist and then threw it into the street. An then, OMG they ran into the street and chased after all the coins! So worth the fifty or so cents. | ||

"No way man, I'm serious. Hand it over." "How about... no. And that's definitely your finger" "C'mon man, don't make me do dis." He never took his finger out of his pocket, which wasn't even a large enough pocket to conceal a gun in anyway. I reached into my pocket and grabbed some change (pennies nickels and dimes) maybe around fifty cents. I clenched it in my fist and then threw it into the street. An then, OMG they ran into the street and chased after all the coins! So worth the fifty or so cents. LOLLLLLL thats still pretty brave of u hahahaha | ||

I heard one of them said "stop" when i walked into them, but i kept walking and act like i didnt hear anything. I thought that was probably the smartest thing to do. Compare to muggers in china this is nothing. i came across ppl that would shout stuff like "stop or i fucking kill you" and they would search your underwear for money -_- those assholes are much harder to deal with.. Got any experience to share? You should have closed your eyes too.... maybe say something along the lines of "Theres no place like home, theres no place like home." | ||

Got any experience to share? Playing music is one of the highest risk things you can do if you want to get mugged. That is why they always tell women in urban areas not to listen to music when walking because it makes them more vulnerable. You were lucky because you saw them right away, but if they had run after you, you wouldn't have heard a thing. They weren't really dangerous. About pulling a knife, stupid idea unless you are highly trained. When your adrenaline kicks in, you lose all fine motor control (like your fingers) and are basically reduced to your limbs. You are not going to be bruce lee, you are just going to flail about with it and probably get stabbed with your own shit. | ||

Only time I ever almost got mugged is when I was leaving this campus in a really bad area(jane/finch) and some nigger starting walking behind me and goes "come here man get over here." At this point I already knew something was up so I walked close to the road and turned around and yelled in his face"WHAT?". My plan was if he had a knife to bolt accross the street.. but he pussied out and goes "nevermind man" and walked away. If he had a gun I guess I would have given him some money. But I would have tried to follow him after while calling the cops. | ||

Do you have any first-hand or second-hand experiences of this phenomenon? Curious, as a matter of history. Even though you say you have never been victimized, I assume you saw things which made you conscious of this fact. Bascially I am interested in the issue of social cohesion in the stage of political breakdown of the Soviet state. Well Moltke, this phenomenon happened here also. After 89, the criminal rate was sky high. People were not used to this stuff and the coruption of the police started, the police got afraid of interfering with mafias etc. Before 89, it was kind of simple (over here at least). You were never afraid of going alone at night, even with money on sight. The works thing that could happen to you was either meet with militia (that's how it was called) and waste 10min on answering questions and fullfiling a declaration of what you were doing there, either meet some gypsie who would beat you, take your money, you go to the police, get called at the station the second day, you recognise the gypsie which either get beat up like hell and into jail for some years or beat to death. As a social behaviour before 89 people were actually acting like a community, acting in the name of common sence and good education. If you're really interested by all of this, just pm me, i'd love to share you my thoughts as a sociologist. | ||

3 months ago, i got beat up by 2 guys stealing my mobile phone (actually, just half, rofl). I was talking at phone on the street when 2 guys coming from behind hit me down, then a little fight (meaning i got beat up bad for not letting the phone go and trying to get up) and finally one managed to pluck the phone out of my hand... a part of it remaning in my hand, that's how hard i was holding it . | ||

First, be a good witness. If you're getting mugged, hand over your stuff, and at the same time take note of their appearance. How tall are they? If you're a bad judge of height, like myself, take note of whether they're taller or shorter than you are, and that way you have something to compare it to. How heavy are they? How do they carry themselves? What is their hair color and style? What kind of clothing do they wear? Second, you need to train yourself to be more aware of your surroundings. A lot of people that get mugged get mugged simply because they weren't very intelligent, or they weren't paying any attention. Remember the diner scene from The Bourne Identity, where Bourne is describing his heightened sense of awareness? That's the type of things I'm referring to. You should know what is going on around you at all times. If you see any suspicious people, change your course of direction. If they change theirs to intercept yours, take out your fucking phone and call 911 immediately. Third, know how to defend yourself. This means you need to know how to throw a punch, and what areas of the body to aim for. I've never been in a fight, nor do I ever intend to, nor have I ever had any formal training other than my dad and some former friends showing me how to throw a punch and do a few simple blocks, throws, etc. Hitting the nose, joint of the jaw, or the temple is your best bet. Some people have suggested carrying a weapon on you at all times. That's a bad idea, generally. First, not all weapons are legal in all parts of any given area. Second, if you don't know how to use said weapon, it's more of a danger to yourself than it is to your aggressor. So, don't carry a knife for self-defense unless you know how to use it. In order to use a knife on an aggressor, you have to be close enough to cut them, obviously. This means they're close enough to take it from you, and use it against you. I'm sure you know where I'm going with this. If you want to carry a gun, well, you need to check your state laws. The laws vary by state, and to the best of my knowledge very few other countries allow the carrying of a concealed weapon. Again, you'd better know how to use your weapon. I think it might be a better idea to learn how to use everyday objects that won't get you in trouble to your advantage. For example, some women carry around a brush with a sturdy handle to it to use to strike. Just be creative. Or, you can just buy something meant for self-defense. Cold Steel's Sharkie and Koga are potentially very dangerous, as is Monadnock's Autolock Jr. Again, I want to stress that you need to assess the situation before you act. Note: I'm not a lawyer. None of this is legal advice, etc. I'm not an expert on this stuff; this is my own personal opinions on the subject. | ||
