investing on street weaponry
The times are hard. And the MMDA is not helping. Whaddafuck is with all those pink deathtraps? I walk from the MRT north ave station to BLISS every night and that is really one hell of a trap. If someone attempts to mug me (or anyone) there, there virtually is no escape.
Last year, (it was the time of Lent), I lost my phone in a bus. Pretty good move by the thugs. Even after I managed to hold the one who pilfered my phone from my loose pants, I suddenly found myself surrounded by four burly fellows and probably some seated others as well. So what happened was... I let him go, and didn't even get the chance to say goodbye to my poor phone.
Well, actually, when confronted by thugs, the safest (and smartest) option is to give your valuables quickly, but if you're feeling muscular, there's always fighting. So here's a list of some weapons you can carry:
brass knuckles-- these babies are called "asero" on the streets. one hit to the face and you're smashed, clean hit or not. trouble is, it's illegal, and you might get arrested for simply having it with you. so the technique is to throw it away after hitting someone.
nunchuks-- bruce lee style! huwaaaaa! tricky to use. could take a while of training. chances are you'll be hitting your obliques and forehead with this thing if you're not an adept. very legal though, but pretty bulky, and difficult to conceal.
tear gas-- spray it on the face of your attacker, then run like hell. quite expensive. but totally worth it.
electric shocker thingie-- i forgot what it's really called. even more expensive. but quite exhilirating to use. nothing like some high voltage attack.
29-- also called balisong or butterfly knife. very flashy if you know how to flip it about. the hard part is to stick it into someone's chest (or eyeball). might cause some emotional damage if you're not used to killing people.
truck stud-- my weapon of choice. concealable, legal, and easy to use. the only set back is that you still have to use your muscles (a lot) to use it. what you do is hold it in your fist. that's it. it makes your punches a little heavier.
next stop, i'll be listing the stuff muggers just might use on you.
