I was going to say this in another thread but I didn't want to take the attention away from the murdered couple.
I never used to think twice about going hiking anywhere alone but I do now and it sorta pisses me off a little that I have to stop and ask myself if I'm going to be safe. Many people think bad shit will never happen to them, it happens to other people. I'm not that person, I know it can happen to me or those I care about.
Have you ever been the victim of a random crime, either violent or not? I don't like the word victim but I had to use it for lack of a better one.

I was walking to my high school with a friend at night on a major street for a football game and a man walking toward us waited till the last minute and grabbed my boob. My friend had to physically restrain me from going after the creep. I didn't report it though.
I was raped in the dorms when I was in the Air Force, I didn't report that one either. I told a bunch of people though and the guy was a pariah after that.
I don't know if those are the kind of crimes to which you were referring but I agree, you need to be careful. Too many fucked up people (particularly men) that prey on physically weaker folks.

That's so awful. My God.
This is not the first time I have seen a female military person say that. Recently, a woman testified on Capital Hill to that. I think she may have been a politician. It was right around the time the Me Too movement was making headlines everyday. Damn it I wish I could remember who it was. She also said she didn't tell anyone. Apparently that's a common theme among woman who have been raped. :(

It pisses me off that can happen and no reprimend to the perpetrator. I'm sorry you had to go through that Rootilda. As Duchess said it is too common. Coming from a military family I know.
Not sure about random crime...I'll have to think about it. Kind of hung up on the word random.
The only thing I can think of is when my sister and I were driving on the highway one night and a window got shot out-it was definitely a bullet and not a rock or pebble.
Neither of us were injured, the window was shattered, before the days of tempered glass that held together-I mean at least in her vehicle. It was scary. And random.

I've been flashed and treated to a beat-off show in public, in broad daylight, twice. Once in my teens and once in my early 20s. I reported them both and one was caught (he'd apparently done the same to several other girls who'd also reported him and his truck).
I was peeped at my apartment complex near Cal State Fullerton for about a week by a very creepy and very skinny old man who I believe lived there too. He kept coming on to my patio and looking through the blinds in the mornings when I was getting ready for work. I could see his form in the mirror reflection.
One morning while he was peeping away, I acted like I was just going into the kitchen to get coffee, went out the front door instead, and was able to chase him down. I threatened to call the police if I ever saw him doing that to me or anyone else again. I never saw him after that.

The very first brand new car I bought was stolen from outside my sister's condo in Anaheim only a couple of days after I purchased it. I was going to college at night and all my books were in the hatchback. That really sucked. I reported it right away and it was found abandoned in a field in Santa Ana about 10 days later. I got the car back with about 700 extra miles on it and it ran fine, but the books and everything inside it were gone.
And, the truck that I have now was broken into twice in the same month on the street in SF. The first time, everything was rifled through, but nothing that I know of was stolen and the assholes left a hammer in my backseat (I still have it). I didn't report it. The second time, the thieves took everything in the truck, including my GPS and my registration which was in the glove compartment. I reported it, but never heard back from police.
Fortunately, I have not been the victim of a violent crime or assault. I'm really sorry that you had to endure that Rootilda.

That really sucks, I have not locked my vehicles at my house in over 20 yrs. I would be laying a trap.

I've gotten the old beat off show a few times. Once when I was 12 years old walking home from school by some gross fat guy in a truck. I never told my parents because it was embarrassing and disgusting. And then a couple other times as an adult from guys asking for directions. WTF. Other than that and some kids physically attacking me in school, nothing really.

I was going to a halloween party wearing Blackface in Upstate New York just minding my business, as I walked by this apartment complex window this extremely ugly woman was playing with her gross hairy nipples and looking right at me.

It sounds bad now to say I never reported it but women in the military in the late 70s already had a bunch of shit we had to put up with and I knew they'd just accuse me of being a slut, it was all my fault, you don't want to ruin his career, blah blah fucking blah. My friend's dad actually told me that there were four reasons why women went into the military... too ugly to get a man, they were whores, they were whores looking for husbands and they were dykes. I'm not sure where I fit into his assessment.

Well, you're very lucky that Clang didn't blind you with a can of Nair when you had your face pressed up against the window screen like that Biggie.

I don't know if Clang made up that story or not, but it cracks me up.

Quite the opposite, when I want to last that memory serves me well.

So what kind are you mostly into these days Clang?
Hipsters and thongs work best for my body. I like boyshorts too though.
I think you could probably pull off boyshorts without scarring Biggie too badly.
Butt, if you feel like going full-on 'string'...........it ain't no crime.
