Have you been a victim of crime? Poll.
Re: Have you been a victim of crime? Poll.
Just curious, was this near Miradouru de Santa Catarina/Adamastor? They seemed pretty coordinated and testy on that hill.Dario wrote: ↑Sun Jul 24, 2022 3:11 am Other story of the NDE kind.
Was attacked by a crack gang in lisbon. Getting choked on the pavement between parked cars, watching at a tire from under the chassis, thinking: this is how it all ends now? Fucking pathetic!
Before i passed out. Came to soon after with the gang gone & my lovely Nokia 8310 but not my wallet! There's a reason for that which i'd rather not divulge.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Twice. Once in Vietnam and once in Laos. Both occasions were entirely my own fault.

But I've stayed in quite tame places, like Kampot, and various islands.
Plus I look dirt poor and fucked up, I don't see why anyone would ever consider robbing me or similar.
Maybe give me a dollar lol

It was in Intendente, close to Praca Martim Moniz. And well coordinated.rabbitoh wrote: ↑Sun Jul 24, 2022 6:07 amJust curious, was this near Miradouru de Santa Catarina/Adamastor?

Re: Have you been a victim of crime? Poll.
- Somebody took my "bins" (lol, love that word) in Singapore airport. My fault anyway for leaving them unattended.
- An Australian guy ( a so-called mate) borrowed money from me in Thailand and I never saw it again. I know who he is, and hope that maybe one day karma will get him (I can't be bothered - this was over 30 years ago.)
- I lost a camera in Sihanoukville under the same conditions as the "bins" - left it on a table for a minute or two of inattention. Completely my fault. (The idiot tax).
There's probably more. I'll think about it.
