I was mugged

lixxus · 2 Aug 2009 at 21:49

u should have reported it straight away to be honest. the police would have came and driven you about to see if you could spot them

regarding crime figures and reporting it that is all nonsense. well in london, my mate has told me that they sometimes put black,asians or arabs down as white, because the proportion of white to black is uneven, so they have to window dress the figures

Most certainly one of my mates was hit round the head with a baseball bat for a few quid. Ended up in a comma for a few days. And though technically fine. He is not right in the head any-more and is a heavy cannabis users as a result.

Didn't he go to the doctor for diazepam? Although I am guilty myself of self medicating for anxiety, cannabis is probably the last thing I would use for panic attacks due to it's anxiogenesis and long term damage.

You know more than 20 people who have been mugged? I hope that for your sake that you are exaggerating! How depressing if true...

east london, what do you expect nothing less to be honest.

so just a few moments ago as i was waiting for my mates i got approached by a group of 4-5 males and females. They ask for some fags but after telling them i dont have any they start asking for my phone. Knowing that im on contract and have not got any insurance i could not let it go. Anyway soon after they get me in the stomach and at that moment a couple see this take place. Another member of the group Chases after then and the guy continues hitting me. One last punch to the head and they run off with my headphones which i just purchased hours ago.

Just thought that i should tell you =3

Glad you're ok eyyaz. The "have you got a spear fag mate/lighter" seems to be the opening line to any mugging I have heard of. Hopefully they will get whats coming to them, you know what they say he who lives by the sword dies by the sword.

yeah or they ask for the time.

anyone that ask you for anything on a london road or anywhere for that matter. tell them to **** off. sounds shreud but aye it will save you. if you do get mugged at knife point . throw you wallet or possession at a distance so it gives u plenty of time to run away
.
im serious. even if they ask you for the time, they most likely want to steal your watch, or they know who dont have a watch and are going to pull out your mobile.

problem is some people are nieve and friendly and want to be helpful. but no sorry. as soon as you step out your house and are going shepards bush,hammersmith,grove anywhere in east. dont stop for anyone. and i dont need to mention south of the river. dont go there unless u have to

If someone stopped to ask me something when I was in and around the Manor House area, I'd have bricked it

well the iphone mobileme services allows u to track your phone and remotely wipe it off its data

also windows mobile "myphone" service still in beta will allow you to do the same when its fullly released.

lool. thats just like throwing it on the floor and saying "o well looks like no ones going to have it"

if he felt they didnt pose a threat to him. and could only possibly dish out a few beats...then thats his rationale

im sure he would have gave it up if they had a knife at him, because his life hopefully is more than the phone

eyyaz · 2 Aug 2009 at 22:19

Still, police havent showed up for those youths throwing the fire extinguisher :rolleyes:

Is Hoxton (near Old Street) a good area of London? I'm moving there for a year in September, and this thread doesn't fill me with confidence
