Yeah, so it was really Sunday moring but whatever. It was about 4:45 in the morning and the party was pretty much dying down and my friend and I were in a room w/ some ladies and we heard some commotion outside so I open the door and theres this black dude there staring right at me. He's like " yo you don't want none of this, you wanna step back into that room." So I'm like "alright, alright, don't really know whats goin on but alright." And I go back dumbfounded and my other friend mike (that lived there) comes back all shaken up and said some guy outside put a gun to his head and took his wallet.

So at this point I panic. I didn't know if I should put my money in my sock or get ready to fight for my life. My legs didnt stop shaking. I was in the room for about another two minutes when I heard my friends swearing. So I walk out and see another one of my friends on the ground out cold bleeding from his mouth. One of the robbers had actually pistoled whipped my buddy.

The guys took two of my friends wallets and another guys phone. I was so pissed. I wanted nothing but sweet revenge but there was nothing I could do. We called the cops and gave descriptions but they didnt really do anything.

two of the robbers were at the party the entire time and we figured they called the third dude( with the gun) when the party had died down. All I can say is I cant wait to turn 21 cuz I'm gonna get a handgun so I don't have to take shit like that again.

_Rant over_

 

[Ninja Scooter]

yes, because the presence of a handgun would have made that situation MUCH smoother.

 

[pollo]

you did the right thing by backing into the room. shit would have scared me as well.

 

[borghe]

ironically if you had a gun you would probably be dead..

I don't get why people don't understand this...

 

[Tuvoc]

It would have made it worse but at least then I wouldn't have had to back down like a bitch. It just sucks being completely helpless.

 

[Escape Goat]

If this happened at Ball State, your friend would have been dead!

 

[borghe]

It would have made it worse but at least then I wouldn't have had to back down like a bitch.

no, you would have just been shot.... like a bitch.

 

[pollo]

It would have made it worse but at least then I wouldn't have had to back down like a bitch.

so you think being a dead failure is better?
honestly given the circumstances i dont think you had much choice but to do what you did

 

[Tuvoc]

It was at OSU. Pretty much at the edge of the campus by all the frat houses.

i think you either watch too much tv/movies or listen to too much rap music.

 

[BigJonsson]

How much cash was in the wallets?
You cancelled your credit cards/debit cards right?

 

[Tuvoc]

Thats the best part. They made off w/ about $6 bucks in cash and by about 6am my friends had cancelled their credit cards.

 

[BigJonsson]

Ugh
Getting beaten for such minimal amounts of money is so stupid

Did your friend try calling his phone?

Stupid, stupid, stupid. If you're going to be in Ohio State, don't fuck around with parties (or hell, being out after dark) unless you're really sure you've got a safe "out."

 

[Tuvoc]

Everyone said the area wasn't that bad. I even went out an hour before all this to get my blanket and pillow from my friends car and didn't worry about it.

I guess down there they favor going into houses to rob people rather than getting them on the street.

 

[BigJonsson]

Can't the Cops trace the cell phones location?

You'd think they'd be trying harder to catch an assault with a weapon

Taking a shit in a colostomy bag for the rest of your life < Backing down like a bitch.

It really is better to be safe in the knowledge that people like the gun dude have rather unenjoyable lives.

Is it really that bad? In '98 a buddy and I used to skate around the OSU campus anywhere between 8pm and 2am. We never had any problems...

Did your friend try calling his phone?

yeah, the guy answered and we found out they were on high st. but after a little bit they realized who was calling and say "Yo, you're a fuckin idiot, we know who dis is." and my friend hung up.

Thats when we figured the cops weren't gonna do much because they didnt seem too interested when we told them they could track the phone because there was a GPS system on the phone.

 

[Matlock]

To tell you the truth, I can't tell you one person I know who went to OSU who didn't get assaulted or raped.

 

[Ristamar]

Ouch.

This is kind of funny. Tuvoc's repsonse(s) anyway. Most people are too scared to pull the trigger. Gotta act fast and disarm the bitch.

I don't know about you, but threatening my life is the ultimate form of disrespect. I remember this one dude I had beef with around my ex-girls block, threatened to kidnap and kill her if I jumped out of line. All because he was jealous of me and wanted to test me...see where my heart was at.

Anyway, once he said that sh!t, I laughed... Not quite the reaction he was expecting. When he asked what was so funny, i grabbed his neck as fasst as I could and blocked off his air. He dropped his weapon (a long ass knife) and begged for me to let go. nDude had some heart though... I'll give him that. He was much smaller than me.

Moral: Think fast and always remain in control no matter how hard it may seem at first.

Just one question: If you were to shoot the criminals, would that be legal? Or would they or their family be able to sue you?

If your life was in danger and you shot them it would be okay. If it wasn't in self defense you could be charged.

 

[shuri]

A taxi driver here was attacked by 6 guys here in Montreal recently. He had a *legal permit* to carry a gun. , he defended himself and wounded two of them

He was horribly beaten up by them before, too. He's the one in court right now because he defended himself.

Moral: OSU sucks

my friend almost got robbed saturday night. i had some friends from sacramento over here this weekend. We went to a bar 3 blocks down from my place and one guy decided to leave early after he starts spilling his drink. So he's walking back the 3 blocks on a well lit usually semi busy street on a saturday night, as he walks near a street corner two guys say "whats up" he says "hey". Then he took a blow to the face. he does his best to get a punch in and a car drives by at that moment and the guys take off. My friend was real lucky cause he had $300 cash on him. and he ends up runnign the two blocks back to my place.

on a side note me and my other friend were getting kicked out of the bar after my friend answered the bartenders question with "ya ill have another you dumb bitch". geez what a crazy night
