My friends and I were discussing this issue last night while walking to the car. The most recent crime alerts occurred on streets and places nearby to the campus. I have walked through them during the day, but never alone at night. That's like the number one rule of staying safe (Walk in packs). We discussed having a gun on hand. My friend, Mort, claimed that he would pack heat even if it's illegal. I responded, "It's ILLEGAL. If we start carrying hand guns, then the bad guys will start carrying semis." He then said, "That's not the point, all we need to do is show the gun, and they would usually leave us alone. But if they tried threatening me or my family, that fucker is getting a bullet right between his eyes." Valid point Mort, but imagine if someone saw you around campus with that. Wouldn't you instantly be thrown in jail? But then again, it's not hard to have a gun. You just gotta be smart about it. It's stupid how the government doesn't allow us to defend ourselves...
"no guns. not even BBs or pellet guns"
"knives are acceptable, but not bigger than your pinky."
"pepper spray is cool, but only in the mini cans."
Well, in a world with rules, we came up with a way to hopefully scare the offender before you get hurt. If you feel a breath on you, if you see a second shadow behind you (i've actually thought my own shadow was that of someone elses), if you're walkin alone, if a group of people starts saying things like,
"What's good niglet?"
"You in the wrong part of town ni**a"
"Gimme your money"
or if a gun is pointed at you, YOU START ACTING CRAZY. say you like raping people with gonorrhea. or you'll bite their dick off (mort). or you will rip their eyes out. or youll sew their ass shut and keep feeding them. or chop their dick into pieces and roast them. slice their nipples off and have a pepperoni lovers pizza. chop off every finger and toe and use it as candles for you kid's birthday. pull a rambo and rip off their neck. rip their head off and play soccer. pop out their balls and call them jelly belly beans. take their clothes and donate them to the salvation army. shove a knife in their ear. make a slit in the palm of your hand and slap them in the face. tell them youll buy them coffee.
you should at least walk with keys in your hands at the ready to shank any mofo to jump you. you have to be prepared for the worst.
And we're not being racists when we question the loitering black people on the streets late at night. Don't get me wrong, there are a ton of friendly homeless people, but you gotta admit that the majority of them are questionable. I mean, every crime alert that I have received since I've been at UIC has been of a black male, 18-20, white tee, blue jeans, 5' 6". I had a crime alert where all four offenders had that same description. REALLY!?
I don't think it's hard to tell the difference between good and bad people. The way they're dressed, the way they walk/talk, mannerisms and such...
just watch your back...
