cort and I were out and about at the same exact time, around 2 a.m., drunk as skunks. :(

here's the story and a little video in the top right corner that shows my neighborhood if you want to see where I live looks like, hurrrr. (http://cbs2chicago.com/topstories/local_story_318060745.html)


there was also a sexual assault by my work a couple weeks ago. between that and the murder in the alley a couple months ago, I'm beginning to think it's me.

are you a hispanic male now?

sarky, stay on the main thoroughfares, be aware of your surroundings, most importantly, try not to walk alone

I sometimes have to walk alone! not very often though. I should get some mace. or a squirt gun that looks like a real gun, filled with hot sauce.

bring a dog with you

actually to be serious for a moment, i thought of a brilliant self-defense plan that i've never actually bothered to implement but i bet it could work. just fill a thermos with boiling water, and if someone attacks you just splash them with it. ask them to hold still while you unscrew the top and stuff

it's like mace, only inconvenient

I don't have a dog. and when I'm walking alone, I'm coming from work, so I'd have to bring my dog to work, and I'm pretty sure you can't bring a dog on the bus, so I'd have to walk like 4 miles with a dog, and I'd get home even later! BOB, IT'S JUST NOT GOING TO WORK OUT!

nunchucks

or better yet, a mace. not mace, A mace, you know, one of those big heavy flailing things from the middle ages. or maybe that's a flail. i don't know what a mace is.

a gun, buy a gun

no, that's a mace. I was thinking I could just wheel around an iron maiden.

OR RAPIERS FOR THE RAPISTS

can you not go on a self defence course at the weekend? if you get jumped, kick square in between the legs (only works on males) but if he has a knife you really do need to go on a course to find out how to get out of situations....

hope everything is ok

get a butterfly (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSmfK498DjI) knife.

in your spare time, practice with it until you get really fucking good.

as soon as trouble presents itself, whip it out, starting doing your moves and taunting the assailant. use a lot of cusswords and and appear confident and crazy.

motherfucker will flee and look for a less troublesome target.

remember: (lb) slash don't stab.

if you don't want the hassle of securing and mastering a butterfly knife, just punch the assailant in the throat as fast and as hard as you can. you can't fight if you can't breathe. this technique will buy you more than enough time to expedite yo ass out thurr.

if you're thrown up against a wall, grab assailant by the shirt and simply drop to the ground. assailant's face will hit the wall with the full force of your weight. a busted nose is likely and if you're lucky, he'll be unconscious. either way, flee the scene.

HOLY GODDAMN I hate butterfly knives because people always try to whip them around as close to you as possible and Im just like "if you aint bruce lee then get the fuck away from me with that shit asshole"

I used to hear stories like this all the time from my mom when she used to work as a rape cousellor full time

it angers me to my core

holy crap, that chick with the knife is awesome!

thanks for this info bobby...but in all seriousness, I doubt that these tacticts would be my first instinct. Isn't that what they teach in karate....for it to be an instinct for you to make a move and not even have to think about it?

that last one is awesome, I'll have to remember it. I'm pretty strong, so if the guy didn't have a weapon, I'd probably manage to beat the shit out of him. especially since these rapists all seem to be around 5'10", 150 pounds. I usually tend toward fight rather than flight as an instinct. I don't know how to get out of getting a knife put to your throat though, since that's pretty common. reverse head butt? I work in small quarters with sharp objects, so I have pretty good reaction time.

also, I think screaming "I HAVE AIDS I HAVE AIDS!" might help.
