There is if you're a mugger...

Alright, they might be more tolerant of the concept.

Err, I don't recall saying train station, and if I did, my bad. It was simply a bridge overhanging a railroad track with the station nearby, but not within eye or earshot.

Also, Fox News fired someone for refusing to air a fake story a while back. If I recall correctly the tried to take Fox to court but failed. That court ruling allowed them to keep the name Fox News, even though some of their content is "Opinionated Content" or something like that. I think it was in Florida, but it was a bit back.

I'm clearly guestimating on the train speed, but I figured it was going about cruising speed on a bike, so in that ball part. I only threw that number out so people wouldn't assume it was some train going like 60 or some shit, because if that was the case I'd probably have gotten ran over. For industrial trains, they usually don't have much in the way of staff. That and it's at night. Also, I didn't wait for the train to stop, I simply bailed in an area that looked least painful, like I said, it wasn't going fast.

Now see that sounds more believeable. I'm still partially hanging on the skeptic side, but that's a gut feeling and all reasoning backs up your story, soooo I'm gonna deal with indigestion as I take back what I said. Also you're using Fox News as an argument as if they're a news reporting station...it's a personal joke, but I had to laugh.

Anyway please make sure you have told the police of this event then, like I said, maybe next time the others won't gang up on the batman but a human being instead...yikes...

I've been mugged quite a few times (EDIT: I should also say that I live not that far outside of Pittsburgh, which is a large city, so crime is rather plentiful if you're ot careful), and honestly its surprising me cause the people that jump me all know me and what I can do.

No matter whats happened, I've always walked away, and more times then not, I've left broken men behind me. I think the worst mugging I had was four guys, the smallest having to be 185 lbs (I was 155 at the time), tried to jump me. The first one tried to fist fight me, but i wound up broking his arm in three different places. So his friend tried to grab me, while another pulled out a switchblade. I broke the one that was holding me's knees and cracked three ribs. When the one with the knife tried to hit me, I wound up breaking his arm, both legs in the femur and tibia, and cracked his head while he was on the ground. The fourth just stood there and I guess weighed his options, cause he just laid down the knife and walked away.

I ended up coming out of it with a bruised thigh, a small cut on my arm, and sore shoulder.

I got mugged once.

The story:

I was walking home from work. House is about a 10 minute walk, but I don't mind, I enjoy walking.
A few minutes from home, and this (must've been 30 or so) guy comes out holding a knife. Says he wants my money. Preferring not to get into a fight, I hand him my wallet (which never has more than $40 in it at a time). I thought he'd leave me alone. He didn't. He attacked me, went straight for my throat. I decided I am not going to die. He draws the knife closer to my neck, I grab his hand and turn it for his throat. Stabbed him. Didn't stop pushing until the knife stopped against what was either his spine or the concrete below us.

The guy was dead. I never thought that I'd ever kill anything, let alone another person. I turned myself in to the police. I showed them to the body, I was let off because they said it was self-defense, and the man was buried.

Later on I learned who the man was. Name was Keith. Apparently he was homeless, but people around town knew he wasn't right in the head.

I try to tell myself that I was in the right. Other people say I was, but I don't think so. I can't forgive myself for taking another man's life. Still haunts me to this day.

Feels nice to talk about this. Kind of cathartic.

Here's a fun game: one of these stories shows evidence of clinical psychological illness. Which one is it?


Here's my mugging story:

I was walking out of an off licence, and an old homeless guy came up and asked for spare change, and I walked past him, so he got a knife out of his pocket. But he kept it folded up inside his fist, so I knew it was there, but it was discrete. Then he asked for change again, so I gave him all my change. And then he said "bless you sir" and I gave him a dirty look and left. The end.
