I fucking hate people sometimes
    #5397968 - 03/14/06 07:03 AM (17 years, 10 months ago)

I was riding the commuter rail to work this morning, and as I was getting off at my stop in downtown Boston some guy bumped in to me in the aisle.  It struck me as strange since the train hadn't lurched or anything, and there was nooone behind him shoving, and I hadn't stopped suddenly or anything.  I make a habit of wrapping the strap of my purse around my wrist so that if anyone tried to grab it, they'd have a hard time...I feel this guy's hand brush against mine, and I look down to him trying to reach in to my bag.  SO I start yelling "This guy's trying to rob me" or some shit, to get people's attention, the guy immediately starts to hustle off the train, so I push him into a seat and some big guy grabs him and stands over him.  I ran off the train because I didn't want to miss my stop, and I was getting off, one of the commuter rail employees was over by him checking his pockets, presumably to see if he had stolen anyone's shit.  :mad:

The human race really dosappoints me sometimes.  Luckily he didn't get anything out of my purse.  My wallet has pictures of my father in it who died when I was 6...I don't care much about the money, but those cannot be replaced.  I once lost my wallet (it fell out of my pocket on the train like 8 years ago) and some kind person found it, called me like 1/2 hour later as I was starting to panick (I had an "if found" card in my wallet) and she BROUGHT the wallet to me at work, all the money still in it.  It was so sweet of her.

Anyways, yeah, so now I'm at work and a bit shaken up.  Fuck thieves  :thumbdown:

Oh well at least that guy helped you out and you didnt get hurt or have anything stolen... when 15 black guys kick you in and steal everything from your pockets in broad daylight while a car park full of witnesses stand there doing absolutely nothing then you'll REALLY start to lose faith in people.

But Liz, you should totally not be carrying around irreplaceable items in your wallet, such as those photos. Any decent photo processing shop will be able to make nice reproductions of them, perhaps even restore them slightly if they are faded or whatever. Then you can keep the originals in a safe place. It doesn't cost that much either.

Fuck thieves.

My shitty train story for the morning: We're packedlike fucking sardines onto the F train and a big black lady in this huge white dress and all these bags squeezes in and is right up against me and the tiny little indie rock girl right next to me. Black lady drops her umbrella, and liek I said, we are all packed like sardines...but I lower myself to the ground, where the umbrealla has fallen flat, and pick it up off the dirty wet floor and bring it back up to her.

Not a single thank you. Not even eye contact. I waited until she was looking in the general direction of myf ace and gave her an overenthusiastic "You're welcome!" and still nothing. Fuck people.

You're right about the pictures, thank you for the suggestion. I have been making an effort to scan all of my old pictures so that they're on the computer and can't be lost forever. I have to remember to take these ones out of my wallet and do the same.

Robot, I hate it when people are unappreciative. This morning on the train before that incident a lady was coughing really bad and I handed her a cough drop. She must have thanked me like 10 times, you would have thought I handed her a $100 bill. It was nice that she was so appreciative, but kind of sad at the same time that it's such a rarity for people to do nice things for eachother that she was THAT shocked, ya know?

You can have my car if you really want it.  I don't use it much anyways :lol:

And Robot, thanks for the quotes, I like them  :thumbup:

I guess I'm going to start carrying a different purse that zips all the way up, and continue to wrap the strap around my wrist, so if someone tries to snatch the whole thing, they're either going to have to take my arm with it, or deal with me.  Neither one is going to end well for them.

Hey hun... that does suck that some guy tried to rob you, but you can definitely seek out a positive way of viewing humanity from such an experience.

I mean, as someone above said, the bystanders could have stood there and done nothing. Humanity had your back, really... and it'd be healthier to focus on that aspect than on the thief.

Same goes for the cough drop lady... there's two sides to it, and you're better off finding the upside. Don't view it as sad... this is how I see that kind of thing:

Living in New England, I've learned to really appreciate others' empathy and hospitality simply because it's not commonplace and expected. If you go down south, EVERYONE puts on a polite face because it's the norm and therefore socially expected. Up here, when someone is gracious or hospitable, it is because they are doing what their heart tells them and not what society deems correct.

I've learned to appreciate the "cold New England shoulder" for it's ability to highlight and draw attention to the diamonds in the rough.  :heart:

You're right.  I often hard a hard time not being cynical about this type of stuff, but yeah, you're right.  I shouldn't look at it negatively, and it IS awesome that people helped as fast as they did.  It's just discouraging that some guy would attempt to do that.  I mean, I don't look like I have a lot of money or look like I have expensive things  :confused: 

Whatever, I'll get over it.  I've calmed down a lot.  Suffer wants to bring me to a police supply store tonight and buy me pepper spray just in case I ever (god forbid) need to use it.  I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but he might insist on it.

I think it is a good idea. If Sam was working in the city, I would probably make her do the same. Either that, or one of those tazer-on-a-leash type dealies, but those require a gun license to carry.

"This Fox Labs pepper spray foam comes out like shaving cream and adheres to the face of your target. It sticks there and burns like crazy. It will block their view if wearing glasses or goggles, making them remove them thereby exposing their eyes. Your aim with Fox Labs Foam pepper Spray has to be a little better than using the fog, but it really stays put and is less likely to blow back on you in windy conditions. It is also less likely to cause cross-contamination indoors due to its focused output."

when it comes right down to it, I'm really never in a situation on the train when I'm not surrounded by people.  I ride the commuter rail during rush hour only, so it's jam packed with witnesses.  Same with the parking lot I park at, I'm never by myself or in any physical danger I don't think.  And honestly, if someone tried to attack me, I could hold my own unless they had a gun...in which case I'd be fucked regardless of whether I have pepper spray or not.  I will not carry a handgun, I don't trust myself with one.  I'd probably shoot myself accidentally or something  :rolleyes:

When I was about 16 some punk ass kid pulled a knife on me outside a train station in east boston, in a really ghetto neighborhood.  He looked all shifty eyed, nervous, and SCARED.  The knife looked more like a box cutter than anything :lol:  He demanded my purse and held the knife out.  I had JUST cashed my check downtown, so there was like $400 in my purse, and I was not about to give it to some kid with a drug habit.  So I told him if he wanted it, to stab me and fucking take it.  It was pretty light out, and while there wasn't anyone specifically watching, if there had been yelling and a big scene, someone would have noticed.  He got freaked out and ran away.  In retrospect I should have just given him the purse, but I really didn't think, after looking at this kid, that he had any intentions of stabbing anyone. 

Anyways, I'll go to the police supply store, maybe get some pepper spray, or maybe buy an asp.  I love asps...they're retractable steel batons, the look like a flashlight handle until you push a button and the baton comes flying out.  Those things can do some serious damage  :thumbup:

    #5398386 - 03/14/06 09:56 AM (17 years, 10 months ago)

S_2 is right.

There's three basic kinds of "pepper spray".

First there are foggers (the spray) These can either deliver a cloud on short distance (say 10ft) or a more directed smaller cone of spray at as longer distance (say 15ft)

As for incapacitation nothing beats a fogger. It gets in their eyes, nostrils, mouth and lungs in one go. The basic problem with foggers is that if you use it in an enclosed space or against the wind, you may be incapacitated as well, as well as bystanders. The ones with a broad cloud require less aim but are notorious for blowback, the cone ones are harder to aim (but like a water pistol - not at all rocket science, really) but also can give blowback and splatter if the assailant is close. I recommend against these types.

Next there is Pepperfoam
Pepperfoam obstructs view and requires some aim, but contrary to spray the foam makes it very visible if you hit him properly. It is less effective than spray against glasses and isnt easily inhaled, but it has very little risk of seriously affecting bystanders or yourself. Pepperfoam is so good in fact that it is used by taxi drivers to take out a specific passenger on the back seat. This can NEVER be done with a fogger. Pepperfoam makes a good defensive spray.

Then there is Peppergel
Peppergel is best. It obstructs view and shoots far like foam, but does better against the wind. Otherwise it is virtually the same as pepperfoam. On a sadistic note it provides a better correctional experience because it almost cannot be removed. Peppergel basically is a thick, very sticky syrup.
All in all I'd say its the best of the three.

Its best to buy the smallest possible unit. A unit is no good if you can't carry it wherever you go, because its too bulky. Also it cannot be used against you when its empty.

The objective of pepperspray is to close the eyes of your opponent so you canm get away. It does so in the first second, but considering some opponents retain memory of where you are so step aside once their eyes are closed.

DO NOT buy teargas - its far less effective than a pepper product. The best would be a pepper gel with an added dye.

Remember that it can take 1 or 2 seconds to reach for a weapon, but that a beastly kick to the shin or knee can be dealt in far less time. It would be best to learn self-defense techniques and reserve the weapon for situations that allow some time to get armed.
If you get taken by surprise, no weapon will make it out of your pocket. Don't get taken by surprise.

What would be funny is if they were much better with a gun and you wound up with three bullets in you before you even fumbled the gun out of the holster :tongue:

heh, got sidetracked by the dirty harry stuff.

i was originally going say that you should definitely go with suffer and get some sort of anti-attacker implement. i'd go with the taser. if a person is close enough to grab you, your purse, etc...it might not be a good idea to spray pepper in such a close proximity to your own face.

Reading your posts about how cold, and impersonal it is up there, mabey the steriotype is correct, that people are more hospitible in the south.

In Austin, people say hi to eachother, hold doors open, people will bum ciggeretes, and let you use there cell phone, if you are in need.
Not all the time of course. There are a lot of assholes, but there seems to be an overall laid back, polite vibe to Austinites.

made me think of this:

http://www.nydailynews.com/front/story/277081p-237316c.html

But what was supposed to be a simple purse-snatching turned deadly when the 28-year-old actress refused to play the victim, McDonald told investigators.

A furious duFresne shoved Fleming after he pistol-whipped Sparks, 29, and grabbed her friend Mary Jane Gibson's purse about 3:15 a.m., McDonald told investigators.

When Fleming pushed back, duFresne refused to back down. "She came back at him," McDonald told police.

Staring at the white-scarved gunman, duFresne then uttered the fateful words, "What are you going to do, shoot us?"

"And he shoots her," McDonald recalled, the sources said.

Well, sucks to be them!!

If he had a gun, it would have been completely different, and I would have been terrified.  Aside from the fact that he was threatening me with something about as intimidating as an exacto blade, he was about 5'5 (I'm 5'10).  I probably could have beat the shit out of this guy.  :rolleyes:

Not with a slit throat.

You should take such situations quite seriously. I read a crime statistic that said a lot (if not most) killers are teenagers.
And looks certainly can decieve.

Some people are very dangerous.

Yeah. In retrospect, it probably wasn't worth standing up to him over $400. But, I guess I got lucky. I did a lot of stuff when I was 16 differently than I would do it now.

I agree! The tear gas seriously fucks with your breathing to where you start to panic, if you don't get some air. That will seriously make someone reconsider their choice of actions.

Liz--Sorry to hear about your fuckwad experience. I hope something good happens for you from a random stranger to balance things out. You can only hope that the person learns something positive from the whole experience and dealing with the repercussions.

:sun:

I think the whole teargas vs. pepper spray thing came about because mace was
marketed as tear gas, mace is almost ineffective, pepper spray dont work in
La, they use it as breath freshener.  :smirk:
