Heeeey, i live in Whitley, and go walking to Asda at 3am at least once a week, it's not that bad... Lived here pretty much all my life, a lot of the rep comes from back when the Tavern was open. Since it, and the Engineer's Arms, closed down, it's got a lot less "enter and you will be beaten to fuck". Does still happen, but nowhere near like it used to.ultimateownage said:O.T. Nothing bad has ever happened to me; I'm too young and innocent. That doesn't matter if you go into Whitley, though. Whitley will fuck you up.
well rest easy cause you know those kids will fail at lifeScoffy89 said:I have 2 stories relating to this. Though my own personal experience is a bit useless but I suppose it's something.
I was about 17 and two little kids (This may sound kind of pathetic but at least I'm honest) who were about 13, came up to me with bats (one said he had a knife but I think he was bluffing to sound tough or something) and wanted my mp3 player. I told them to get lost but of course they didn't but luckily my friends house was nearby so I got there as quick as I could. A bit of a useless story but it is messed up how people, especially kids, resort to this kind of behaviour. I mean seriously, trying to forcibly take someones stuff because you want it? What is that about?
Also a friend of mine got held up by a junkie with a dirty needle for money. All he had on him was a bit of change so luckily he didn't lose anything valuable.

Yeah, I know Whitley's not that bad. It's still fun to make it sound like it is, though. It's turned into a kind of in-joke at this point.
Only time I got jumped was after leaving a club in Mexico some people followed me and my friends to an after party we of course didn't notice them (drugs plus alcohol = BLAST!)Atheist. said:I was walking home last night and saw a group of people that approached me. They literally stole my shoes and were about to steal my wallet and throw me off this bridge. I got out of their control and managed to jump off it and land on a train.
How fucked up are the times we live in that random people seriously attempt to kill someone for shoes and a damn wallet?
Has anyone else had an experience being mugged, or attempted mugging? I'm fairly proficient in Krav Maga. But taking on five people at once is quite difficult. I managed to submit the big guy, but some other dude repeatedly punched me in the head until I retreated.
I jumped off a 30 foot bridge, on to a train, so about a 20 foot drop. Jumped off, and walked home 4 miles in my socks. Sorry for the profanity, but I seriously think this is messed up.

Yeah, it's kinda like that time when my family was attacked by bears and I had to fight them all off, but one of them had a shotgun and shot me. It hurted like hell, I just wanted support but they criticised me.Atheist. said:Thanks for the disrespect. I suppose I slowly walked/limped home. My bad. I didn't get hit too many times in the head, I blocked most of it. I still took a few good ones. If you've never been in a real fight, why are you criticising me? I just feel like you're being an asshole by basically calling me a liar, when I came here for support. That's fucked up dude.
