I was just mugged!

Well, it's better than nothing.

And in any time when you think something like this might happen, make sure you get a good look at the fiends. A good visual description can be a case saver for a lot of people.

i doubt it mrmitchell... there was a couple half a block down who saw the whole thing plus a couple people driving by... i dont think the noise maker would have helped... might have attracted the two cops who were checking out a house a couple blocks up though. i dont know.

noise maker might scare them. maybe not though. if you could have gotten them with spray you would have been safe.

mrmitchell... descriptions are hard at night... all i could say was they was two black males my age and one had a scraggly beard and they wore long tees but that description fits like 90% of the people here. they didnt really have nothing charateristic but i couldnt really tell for sure anyway

[Al B. Sure!]

yeah kid, i looked up in the yellow pages theres several gun dealers

Good luck Albert Speer. Get some self defense equipment it will make you feel safer. Hopefully you won't have to use it. If you get a gun be very carefull.

I'm off to bed.

Damn. You do say they held you up against a lamp post though? Get any information about them that you can. Height, age, clothing, facial features, everything, even large scars on the arm or whatever. The more you know, the better.

[Al B. Sure!]

nah there was nothing notable about them... two black males one with a scraggly beard. that was all i could tell really. why do people always say **** like remember notable things like scars? how many people go around with big notable scars?

Sorry to hear about the mugging. Hope that you are ok.
BUt do they issue conceal gun permits? Otherwise you have to keep the gun at home, so what good would it do you on the street? Also if someone sneaks up on you how can you pull your gun in time? Usually though the drugies are the ones that mug a lot.

[Al B. Sure!]

and it wasnt exactly a lamp-post i dont think... i dont know what it was... i think it was more like one of the bus-stop posts or something cause it seemed slightly different from a normal lamp-post but i dont know.

[Al B. Sure!]

yeah the ad said, "application to carry concealed weapons availible" or something like that so i'm assuming you can in philly.

but yeah these two boys were def druggies... they didnt even want my money at first. i offered my wallet and they still were demanding weed until they finally took it.

Because we hope it works. Sorry

(Usually, though, there's SOMETHING descriptive that sets them apart from the crowd...unless Philly was some bioclone experiment that went horribly wrong)

[Al B. Sure!]

mrmitchell... two young black males one with a scraggly beard and they were wearing the same clothes that every other boy in philly, including me, wears... that description fits everybody

[Al B. Sure!]

i just found out that my one boy had a similiar **** happen to him but he aint say nothing to me for some damn reason...
