Freaked out

By CriminalMistake - 04/05/2009 05:08 - United States

Today, I was leaving a campus parking garage. Suddenly, a huge man appeared behind me and kept saying "HEY!" "STOP!" In a gruff voice. I picked up my pace and so did he. I finally turned to him with a can of mace and threatened to use it. He was trying to return the $5 bill I dropped. FML

Today, I noticed someone leaving the parking garage. She dropped a 5-dollar-bill. I picked it up and tried to return it to her, but when I caught up to her, she turned around and threatened to spray me with mace. FML.

lol at #2 But yeah I once saw an old man drop his glasses without realising, so being a good citizen, I picked them up and ran after him. I got punched by a passer-by who thought I was trying to jump the old man. FML

After reading all these comments from women i think i should never return anything to any women if they drop something. Thanks for the wise lesson!

College women these days and their thoughts and paranoia of RAPE.....

I like #2 lmao. ... You're kind of..dumb..

#35 - Yes. That's what we're saying.

Let him keep it after that. You jumped the gun (or mace) big time.

Fake, similar post was posted about a month ago. Almost verbatim. x_x

dude, really guys? are you really that stupid? 1 in 4 women are raped during their lifetime, and 1 in 6 are raped during their college years. People can be so stupid and uninformed. Women get attacked all the time. A few weeks ago I parked behind a grocery store next to a big white van, and checked to make sure there was no one in it because you always hear those stories about guys who open the side doors of the vans and grab women getting out of their car. I started gathering my stuff in the front seat, then noticed a big guy walking toward the van who had stopped and was staring at me. I looked up at him so he knew I saw him, and he quickly looked down and walked to the van. Thinking he probably realized that he came off as being sketchy, I shrugged it off and stuck some sodas in my pocket for later. As I moved to open the front door, I noticed that there was no one in the front seat of the van. Puzzled for a second, I continued to reach for the handle - then I saw his silhouette through the tinted back windows of the van, crouched and facing the side doors, which were maybe a foot behind my driver's seat. I was like ARE YOU ******* SERIOUS and grabbed my phone and mace and climbed out the passenger seat door (I know, I should've driven away but I panicked) and stared him down as I walked away. Maybe he was looking for something in the back seat, and just happened to crawl through the front seats, and just happened to be facing the side doors, but **** if I was going to wait around and find out. It's a dangerous world, and it's better to be safe than sorry.

#43: I carry mace. The last thing I want to give an attacker is a fair fight, and my life doesn't need the kind of complicated it would get if I stabbed somebody. #29: I never implied that she should stop and have a chat with the guy. And how is "What the hell do you want" more rude than ignoring him and then breaking out the mace? Real criminals aren't ninjas that pop out of the bushes and shove you into a van. They rely on your fear of being rude, and the fact that most people don't want to make a scene. So if you think somebody is playing on that, be rude. Make a scene. Real criminals don't pick just any random person. They look for somebody they think won't or can't assert themselves. Refusing to acknowledge someone makes you looks sheepish. If you can't muster the courage to say "**** off unless you like the taste of mace" and _keep moving_, then you aren't going to be able to actually hurt somebody if you need to get away. I have no idea how you can worry about being raped, but be more worried about being rude.

#43 ..... Dude Dog the Bounty Hunter carries mace. And he's a 70 year old badass with a wife that has the grossest big ******* ever.
