ok folks! share your tales of horror and heroism!

several years ago my friend and i had a run in with a couple
of inept amatuer mugger-wanabes...
we were walking to the bus stop, coming home, in broad
daylight, (like the early afternoon) on a major, busy city
street...
...these 2 dumbasses a few years older than us came up to us
and told us to to give them our money
trying to be diplomatic, we told them we didn't have any..
then one of them reached for my back pocket (i carry my
wallet in my front pocket), and didn't feel anything
upon his patting my ass, considering it was a busy main
street in broad daylight and they didn't even pretend to be
armed, i said something like "what are you doing?" and
walked away at a normal pace shaking my head.... my friend
(who usually acted much 'tougher' than me) ran away across
the street hehe..

(i felt VERY cool at the time :))

..then a couple years later a hooligan stole my other
friends halloween candy as we were just about to finish the
night.. he was waiting at a corner, asked for the time, and
when my friend chekced his watch, the guy grabbed his
plastic bag and ran away with it so fast he left the handle
in my friends hand..
he fled to a waiting getaway vehichle full of rowdy teens, a
volvo station wagon i believe
BUT the joke was on him! we had just dropped off our heavy
bags of candy at my house and picked up new empty bags to go
for a final stretch around my block, so there was a grand
total of ONE tiny chocolate in the bag ehehe... and it was
poisoned...

i was in paris and my dad crossed the street to look in a
store window. his camcorder was hanging off his back and
this guy walked up and sort of did a double take. and then
on a whim i guess he decided he would snatch the camcorder.
he grabbed at it and i calmly went "hey, dad, that guys
going to mug you" and he turned and looked at the guy. the
guy sort of walked in a circle and then began walking in the
other direction as if nothing had happened.
weird french people.

when I was 12 some older pikey kid grabbed posters out of my
hand and sadi "I won't give them back if you don't give me
some money"

me - "keep, em, I don't really care they were free!" (with a
smirk on my face)

I got hit quite hard in the face...but some security guard
chased him off

my friend had just bought a quater of weed and before he
could put it in his pocket or anything some fucker came and
tried to snatch that shit.

just let go and backed off kinda slowly.

A friend of mine was being followed by some guy in central
London. He started running after her and pulled a knife.
Being a dancer though, she's pretty fit and managed to pick
up enough speed to leave him behind. Close thing though, the
tip of the knife just scratched the back of her neck...

all in the same neighborhood in minneapolis, between the
ages of 13 and 16...

first time me and two buddies were out past dunset,
desperate to find some smoke as we nothing better to do.
dude on bike said he could get some, that we should meet
him, in front of birchwood cafe in ten. when we got there,
there was a different kid, who told us to sit tight. then
after a while he was like alright, lets go into the alley
(you know, the dark secluded one, under the burnt light
post). this is where you stop to sympathize, we were just
plain dumb at that age.

half suspicious, but most hopeful, we followed him into the
alley to meet a group of three or four, and the same number
came in from behind. we pretty much knew we were fucked by
then, but rather than try to escape my buddy with the cash
pulled out his wallet as if we were still gonna make a deal.
dude grabbed the wallet and punched my friend. about half
the group jumped him, the other half jumped other friend of
mine, and i figure they left me alone because i looked half
my age (i'm a fairly little guy, young face). i don't
usually have much in the way of bravery, but i was in shock
and spontaneously jumped on the back of a large fellow who
was pounding my buddy's face to a bloody broken mess. the
guy basically nudged his arm and sent me flying across the
alley, so i went into the cafe and phoned the cops. less
than a hundred was lost, frank's nose was crooked.

second time we were walking down a street in broad daylight,
not a part of the neighborhood known for its crime. dude
was dressed in nothing but various shades of blue, rags and
all, talks some getto to us from beneath a oldschool two
foot afro. pressures us to buy weed from him. we avoid
him, tell him maybe we'd come back once we got our money,
but he saw through it. we were dressed well, my friend had
polo gear on and we all carried coca-cola bottles. smoking
cigarretes.

we kept walking and a little ways down we come face to face
with this guy. "you don't want no drama, em

empty yo pockets," very calmy, professional like while he
gripped a LARGE knife handle in his pocket. we obeyed,
lossing a good load of cigaretts and money, my friends nice
butterfly knife (he wasn't about to try anything with this
guy who was twice our shrimp size). i lost a dime bag. he
said with the same cool voice something like "get along
now."

third time it was me and a single buddy, three girls. as we
walked past mathew's park we noticed 60-80 young men in red,
riding bicycles and playing besketballs. for some reason
these "bloods" (word is the local bloods are not actually
affiliated with the larger known gang, basically posers who
can get away with it cause there are no "real" bloods in
town). we turned around and tried to walk away without
being noticed. we thought we were good, but as we were
passing in front of the 25th street market a group of about
seven of these kids confronted us, bumping into us, asking
us where we were headed. everybody but me just kept walking
and went into the store, but i was so high (at that age and
size i would become incompacitated when i smoked) that i
stood there in a daze. kid put his hand in his crotch under
his shirt like he was holding a gun. not sure if he was
bluffing or not, but without the gun aspect i wouldn't have
actes any different.

they took my wallet, went through everything in it. gave it
back. they left. the store owner came out with a big old
hand gun mumbling something about being upset he didn't
catch the niggers in time. he was in the wrong fucking
neighborhood.

latter i went through my wallet. my few dollars were there.
my subway stamps were gone.

LOL they stole subway stamps.

I walking through a park when I was younger and some chick
came flying out of the woods and grabbed my hat. She then
gave it to some guy that was sitting in the shadows. He said
that I either give him 5 bucks or I dont get my hat back, so
I figited around in my pockets for a second, walk foward and
kicked the guy in the face and ran like a mother fucker.

It was sooo worth getting my had stolen!

oh yeah. my uncle was getting on the subway in NYC and a guy
"accidently" bumped into him. he got on the train, the doors
closed, and he was two hundred dollars and one wallet
lighter.

never been mugged but last weekend i was in chicago and some
dude squirted some shit on my shoes and then told me that he
had to finish the job, so he gave me a shoe shine. then he
said its $8 a shoe. i was like "what the fuck?" got in a
small argument with him, handed him two bucks and left.
thats it. who knows maybe i will be mugged tonight, if so,
i will report it promptly.

lol! if it were passes for a subway ride i'd think i had
lost something of value. the humor is that these were
SubWay stamps--as in the restaurant! i had three of the 12
needed for a free 6" sandwhich with the purchase of a soda.
it was like stealing empty soda cans.
