View Full Version : Ever been mugged?

Apparently there is a good likely hood that I'm going to be mugged at some point. I didn't do anything wrong, except I hung out with someone who I guess I shouldn't have and these two guys want jump me. Which is an honorable thing to do.
What's the best way to prepare for a potential assault?

You're right. They're not robbing me. So, this thread is a failure from the get go. But anyway.
Any prevention of not getting jumped? Or, anything I can do to better myself in case something were to happen?

Brass knucks in your back pocket.
I have to find where to get them. Aren't they illegal?
I also have a blade. Not a switchblade, but a decent knife. I've carried that on me before. Thankfully nothing came of it.

Unless you walk around with a knife ready to use at an instant, it's probably not going to do you any good, when someone is attacking you in a planned way. Get some high grade pepper spray, find out some info on the two guys, and hire that guy from Three O'Clock High to be your backup for a while.

These guys are fucking idiots. Big guys, but big and dumb. The one looks like he's missing a chromosome. I heard them drive by my friends house while I was there to see if I was there. And apparently they told my friend they were gonna come by and fight me.
Personally, I'd rather just be peaceful. But if someone is coming at me then all bets are off.
I have family who are fire fighters in my town and my brother works at the port. I think I'm in good company.

Most tactical or butterfly blades are fine if you are defending yourself, and I don't think knucks are illegal in Jersey, unless you are under 18.

I know that switch blades are illegal, but the others are pretty much all fine.
And I'll need to get myself some knucks. Just seems like a good thing to have. I looked on line and you can get them pretty cheap. Though, I'd rather buy them at some store than online.

1. If you cant fight, brass knuckles arent going to do you any good. Especially 2 on 1.
2. Carrying a knife is for pussies. And again, if its 2 on 1, and they see it, its not gonna help. Plus if you kill one, youll have all kinds of extra aggrivation you dont need.
Youve got 2 choices. Either go out and get some pepper spray or a taser to carry for protection, or go get your friends/brothers, and go look for them.
Go on the offensive. "You were looking for me, here I am. Now what?" Or you can go after them seperately, one on one, and kick the shit out of each of them. If you can actually fight that is.

Get a bat :
Hah for real. The only thing that scares me about carrying weapons like a bat or knife is if your dumb ass loses it to the enemy its going to be the thing that ends up kicking/killing your ass. Imagine if that dude in the vid lost the bat early, instead of being the G he was. He would of been a dead man.
I have had some dudes set me up, 3 of them, 1 of me with no friends, before back when I was in high school and got cold cocked, luckily I escaped like the dude in the vid in my car before they could do any real damage. I consider myself pretty lucky for that scenario. They never tried shit when we were on even playing fields.
If dudes got to jump you without your friends around you know they are pussies, they wont fuck with you on even terms is what I have found. Just be weary of your situations for the next couple weeks. If a girl that normally wouldn't call you late at night does and wants to 'meet up', avoid the urge, thats how they got me.

It's because I've been hanging out with this girl. just hanging out and stuff. She's not seeing either of these guys, but apparently they are very threatened by the thought of me hanging out with her. Weird, I know.
So my friend who I was with was the girl I was hanging out when they drove by. She kind of got freaked out a little bit. I didn't, because whatever.
And yeah, these guys are idiots. Really. I went to school with one of them and he was always an idiot. A tall mother fucker who I was always friends with, but he was always an idiot. Now he's in a metal band with this other fuck who prides himself in looking like white trash.

Avoid what nonsense? By hanging out with a person? I really don't see the nonsense in that. Not once have I said anything to these people that would warrant any kind of retaliation.
And honestly, why should I have to change who I hang out with just because two punks feel like they can threaten and intimidate me? I'm not just going to shy away and say, 'oh well, at least I avoided confrontation'. There has been nothing on my part that should make anyone want to attack me in anyway.

Missy, going to the cops wouldnt have done shit for your brother. They cant do anything. And they wont do anything. The most youre going to get is the advice to buy some pepper spray and stop being a pussy.
And yes, if you walk around constantly being afraid of being beaten up, youre a pussy. And if you stop seeing this girl because you afraid of these meatheads, youre a pussy.
Youve gotten the advice Keith. Either start carrying a weapon that will help you (taser, pepperspray, etc.) and stop being afraid with the knowledge that when these guys make their move they are in for a big unfortunate surprise, oooorrrrrr.....
Get some friends and take the fight to them. Just go to the guys house. Dont get crazy. Tell him youre going to keep seeing this girl and if hes got a problem with it then nows the time to do something. He will either pussy out (like most bullies do, especially with no help around) or hell come at you. Then its up to you to defend yourself. Either way it will most likely be over after that. Besides, theres nothing to be ashamed about if you get beat up anyway. You cant win every fight. But its better and safer then waiting to be jumped.
This whole "go to the police" bullshit over something you overheard is just pussy crybaby shit. It is. Im sorry if people disagree but its the truth. Sometime you have to be a fucking man and fight. Has the world become so fucking feminized that even the rumor of a threat from another guy has people telling a grown man to go to the police? Thats fucking pathetic.

Go ahead and try to be Mr. Macho, it's not going to work out well for your when it's 4 against one. My brother got jumped and his entire face was smashed in. Can't really defend yourself against a group of people very well. And then the cops will ask you "well why didn't you report the threats?" and the dumbasses will get off easy.
Dunno, I live my life like an adult now, not a 16 year old, and I'm not going to pretend your regular person is tough enough to defend themselves against a group of people, weapon or no weapon... especially when you're not trained to use a weapon. Or maybe you'll get the first hit in, and then you'll be the one getting sued and your ass arrested when they claim self defense... but wait, they threatened you ahead of time! Nope, no report.
But hey, enjoy having your face smashed in, at least you won't look like a "pussy". This is Jersey Shore shit.

It 100% would have done shit for him, even if he still ended up getting jumped. They threatened him for months and then finally jumped him... so guess what happened when we told that to the cops? "there was no report, this wasn't premeditated". If there HAD been a report, the charges would have been greater and he could have gotten a longer restraining order.

Besides, theres nothing to be ashamed about if you get beat up anyway. You cant win every fight. But its better and safer then waiting to be jumped.
This whole "go to the police" bullshit over something you overheard is just pussy crybaby shit. It is. Im sorry if people disagree but its the truth. Sometime you have to be a fucking man and fight. Has the world become so fucking feminized that even the rumor of a threat from another guy has people telling a grown man to go to the police? Thats fucking pathetic.
It's the adult thing to do. I can tell you right now I wouldn't risk my job over this shit, and if I got arrested, I would be. I wouldn't risk my health over it either. It's not worth it.

It 100% would have done shit for him, even if he still ended up getting jumped. They threatened him for months and then finally jumped him... so guess what happened when we told that to the cops? "there was no report, this wasn't premeditated". If there HAD been a report, the charges would have been greater and he could have gotten a longer restraining order.

And your brothers face still wouldve been smashed in, so yea, reporting it to the cops is worthless. Who gives a fuck if the guys get an extra year in jail? They beat your brothers ass!
Im not trying to argue with you, Im really not, but Im sorry sometimes violence IS the answer. What do you think Ive never been jumped before? Where I grew up that shit happened all the time, with warning or without.
If your brother knew in advance that a group of kids wanted to jump him, then he shouldve been prepared for it. Now I dont know how old he was, but if hes at least an adult, its not hard to prepare for. I dont give a fuck if its 8 on 1, if youve got pepper spray, and start spraying when they come at you...you dont get beat up. I bartend and bounce at a real dive now and Ive seen cops clear groups of 20 or more with pepper spray.
I just dont agree with the whole "just go to the cop/teacher/parent" attitude of dealing with things. Deal with them yourself. In my house, if a kid does something wrong, and another one tells on them, they both get punished. One for what they did and the other for ratting on them.
To each their own. Keithy asked for advice and thats my advice. My advice is how to avoid getting jumped, not how to get a better punishment after it happens. Its worked for me. Im 34 years old, grew up 2 blocks from the Washington Ave. projects, bounced in bars all over Philly and have been in more fights then I can remember. I never started a fight and Ive never had my face smashed in. Because Im a street smart kid that was taught to be aware of whats going on around me and be prepared for anything.
Crying to the cops that someones threatening me is just a pussy move and as a man my pride would never allow me to do it. Maybe because youre a female thats why you dont get it.

I do, he does, my entire family does. It made it harder to prosecute... I dunno, I don't believe in this street justice crap... if someone brutally attacks someone else, I expect them to be punished accordingly and go to jail.

Violence isn't always the answer for everyone and every situation. Some people are not fighters.

He was still in high school, 17. He is not a fighter, he got attacked simply because he's gay. He got gay bashed, basically. Even if he DID get pepperspray, #1 - he could have gotten expelled, #2 - he could have sprayed them first and been arrested/sued #3 - it wouldn't have done shit since they jumped him from behind as he was getting off a bus.

We obviously have different advice to give to him and he can take each and make his own decision. However, knowing Keithy from his posts here over the years, he has MS and I doubt is in prime shape to defend himself against a beating. Not everyone is able to be a fighter.

How is "violence the answer" here? It's obvious keithy has no idea how to handle himself in a fight! Anyone feeding him bullshit to "handle it like a man" is just setting him up for a severe beating if these guys genuinely do want to kick the shit out of him, or worse! This isn't the movies and he isn't going to suddenly learn how to fight off more than one guy trying to take him down or now how to use a weapon! Why are some of you acting like you've never read keithy's posts? Does he strike you in any way as someone who has a chance in a situation like this? Of course not! And telling him to have some kind of weapon on him just makes it worse because odds are it's just going to end up in the hands of his attackers if this goes down! The bottom line is that sometimes the smart thing to do is to avoid a fight!

1. I dont know Keith like that. I didnt know he had MS and I didnt know he cant fight.
But I did say the weapons I suggested were ones someone could use even if they didnt know how to fight. Mace and tasers arent for hand to hand combat, they are quick ways for people to disable their opponent, which is why they are usually recommended for women who fear attack. Thats why I pretty much shot down brass knucks or using a knife.
2. That being said, I took Keiths question as to how to avoid getting the shit beat out of him, and I really believe going to the cops doesnt do that. All they will do is roll their eyes and maybe file a report. Keith still has to catch a beating for that to help him at all.
I dont know your whole situation Keith. But if you physically cant fight and these guys are threatening you, my next question would be, dont you have any friends??? I mean, if this were one of my friends those 2 clowns would have 5 guys waiting for them the next time they went out. Not to fight, but just to let them know that if it didnt end immediately, thats what they would have to deal with.

I absolutely do. And I dont believe for a second Im overconfident about the effect I have on them. And if you disagree with the way I raise my kids, you can say it the way you just did. Like a respectful person. Not like a condescending cock the way he did. And when I referred to my kids originally, I wasnt talking to him anyway.
Ive got my own beliefs when it comes to raising my kids. Alot of them definitely arent popular these days but I really dont care because I believe most people these days raise their kids wrong. They overly baby them and treat them like they are made of glass. They dont hit their kids or teach them consequences. What results are weak adults who dont know how to handle problems. People that feel everything should just fall into place for them and then crumble when it doesnt work out that way. Kids that live with their parents until they are 30 because they are scared shitless of responsibility. My job as a parent is to make sure my kids can survive on their own. And I absolutely believe what Im doing will make that happen.

So what's the deal? You sort this thing out?
If you need to settle it, you can do your own personal 12 o'clock High. Tell the dude to meet you at Echo Lake Baseball field Sat. Aug. 28th at 1:00 p.m. (since we know that people arrive late) and finish this business once and for all. We all know he probably won't come by himself to meet you (after all what good is beating someone up if no one is there to see it). Him and his boy will be in for a rude awakening........but then you're talking about Ronfez.net a bunch of internet tough guys hiding behind their keyboards.......or are we? We got you back Keithy....plus we got bats just in case it's going to be a rumble.
"Hey did you hear, Keithy_19 beat up what's his face. He didn't want to fight him but he left him with no choice."
