Wow, how scary! *What would you do?*

[sandragonfly]

thank goodness your boyfriend's mother is okay, thank you god! must be very scary, someone or an event coming out of NOwhere..

I was mugged couple years ago while walking with crayola, (I JUST got him), he had his head turned behind me, as I turned - I was bounced off wired-fence then down on floor. you had to fight! good thing my little purse strap was around my right neck to left waist, he was struggling to take it off. I screamed as hell as I could, and fought, scared the guy off. I guess I looked too skinny. had nothing on me anyway.

sorry the mother was mugg-bruised.

I would have fought back, then called the cops.

Your dating him now?

Sorry to hear that! I hope she is doing alright, that must have been so scary.

If I were in that situation, I would hand over my purse and then run like hell.

How did her attackers get away, without being approached , or, being arrested?


Where were the Police when this Happened? ( I live in a small rural community, so, perhaps I don't have a clue as to how fast these altercations have a way of going un-noticed!!!


I really feel so bad for her!!!!!! She must be tough!!!!!!!!

I have no idea how they got away. We live in a smaller town (about 8,500 ppl) but she wasn't on the street where the dance was, she was on a different one, that is perpendicular to it. I'm assuming that most of the cops were on the street that was closed off, and not the one she was walking on.

She is VERY tuff, who isn't after raising four boys, and training horses for a living, but she is so sweet.

Your dating him now?

Yep. We actually started dating like a month ago, but then we broke up, and now we're back together again.

Mugging is a very scary thing, and it's unfortunately on the rise. I'm really sorry it happened to her and hope the trauma and the bruises heal soon.I'm not sure what I would do if I was mugged. I would want to fight back, but by doing that they are more likely to hurt you. I'd probably scream at the top of my lungs to attract attention, which I've heard often unnerves the attackers, or perhaps I'd tell them I had a knife or something!
