How To Defend Yourself From Attackers

By Nui Big Kahuna

It's college spring break season now, and my daughter is back home from school for a week or two. While on break, she's enjoying her time on partying, and just this weekend, she went to the city with her friends to a very raffish club in a very unraffish area of the city.

They went into this area and had no problem getting in. They boogied until the early hours before they decided to hit home. My daughter and her group took their car, and headed out. But the other group they were with encountered a bit of trouble.

On their way to get their car, a flashy Lexus, a couple of junkies from Southeast approached them. They struck the male of the group and the girls were appalled with what happened but couldn't do anything as fear was crawling all over them, and that's what those junkies love, once they see fear they can easily control their victim. Then a few minutes after, the junkies took all their money from five of them and the junkies just suddenly disappeared.

Not any one of these kids can identify who victimized them, all they know was that their attackers were wearing dark clothes and baseball hats. And they couldn't say which direction all those junkies came from and which way they fled after assaulting them.

These kids are only 21 years of age, its the age when you're in the height of partying here and there. They are not aware of the places or areas that where crimes and assulting usually occurs. They drive an attention-getting car so they can party it up, without giving much thought that they are susceptible to any troubles.

But if those junkies had chosen to attack the group with my daughter, then it would have been a different story.

My daughter is vigilant and wise. She always carries with her a mini stun gun and a 4 ounce Wildfire Pepper spray. If those crooks had attacked her group, they would have received a prize they would not forget. My daughter would never hesitate a second before choosing which among her weapons to deploy first.

But the rest of her friends are the happy go lucky type. They think the security blanket of Mommy and Daddy's money and big house in the suburbs is going to protect them.

By taking your Dad's ride out for clubbing in an unsafe area, you have just given those junkies the opportunity to grab and assault you with no sweat, as you are showing them you're a vulnerable dumbass whom they can easily overpower.

And what would you think if you're the guy who gets smacked by these crooks in front of four women? Ain't it a shame?
