Its hard to fully understand your bodies natural fight or flight instinct until its used.
where: wachovia bank walk up atm
when: 2am
what: my ass getting mugged
I walked up to the atm and left my keys(and mini baton/pepperspray attached to the keys) before i put my card in i heard a guy talking. feeling a little nervous i walk back up to my car and get the pepper spray kubaton. while walking back up to the atm i see him walking towards me. I was at this point pretty much shitting myself. I waited around the corner for what felt like forever with the pepperspray up and ready. As soon as he came around the corner he pulled out a steak knife I let him have it with the spray. I then picked the flight instead of fight. With a knife on me and a mini baton and him blinded by pepper spray i probably could have given him an ok beating, but id rather live without any injuries. Im fine not going from macho man to dead man.
so basically i hauled ass to my car and left. in one piece. i should really try to get to the atm during the day.
