I think the do not fight back advice is some of the best advice ever given on this list. I've put myself in many a dodgy situation in my youth. I've been in dangerous parts of Philly, NYC, Miami. Often drunk, or more. One time I decided to escape the city, and spent a summer living in Ithaca NY, and spend my time drawing comics/swimming in gorges. Around 7pm, on a tuesday, in a town full of Phish fans... I got mugged. A couple of high school kids jumped my friends and I. I figured being a badass from a real city that I could intimidate my attacker. I pushed him in the chest and almost knocked him down, and yelled "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" He beat me unconsciousÂwith a baseball bat. I don't remember much of the beating, but apparently it was pretty brutal. It took me months to recover.
Stories where people intimidate thieves are very inspiring, but dont take the chance. People who use weapons on other people suck.
