Being in college park we have to worry about this stuff when we go out. Its not fun to worry about and it sucks walking through an area when you sure as hell know you shouldn't be. The other week someone got robbed on our campus mall. That is in the f...ing middle of campus. MOst of the muggings happen a few miles off campus and if you are out there you seriously probably will be robbed if you are alone.

Being that we have muggings every once in a while the school sends out messages where they are and stuff and the description. No one is ever found. It is scary when you hear a gun is involved. Last year there was a saturday night where a group of high schoolers from the area went around robbing quite a few people. The police here cracked down on their ass. Every f...ing street corner was full of cops. They found 4 of them who used fake guns in the robberies. I was going from one place to another that night and we were in a group of like 25 people. Other than that i never hear of anyone getting caught after the incidents .


One of my friends carries a knife on him when going out to shady places. I tell him that if he uses that thing, he will be the one that is killed. I mean he is a pretty big guy but he doesn't have the mindset that these loonies have. They prey on people and beat the shit out of them for 40 bucks. They can easily kill you if you put them in a position to. However, they don't want to hurt you really. Be cooperative and they will be done in a minute. Its not worth 100 bucks.

Last night i was about 5 miles off campus. That was not a real good idea. It was shady as hell. My friend and I got a ride back with some girls and were gentlemen and walked them home after we parked. The thing is you can get robbed walking back on campus after you park at 3 AM.

Staying in groups is key. Also run across a area if you are really sketched out. Good exercise and who the hell is going to rob a guy that is already running. They are looking for drunk people that can't barely stand.
Yeah I just talked to a detective, and he told me this kind of stuff happens all the time, also a good amount of people do not report it.

He was asking for info, because they want to pursue this case. They have cameras in the garage and they could find this guy. Only problem is what if he is in a gang, I dont know where he lives and what he does. I could be putting myself in a lot more danger than just letting this whole thing go.

The detective said if caught he could get 20 years+. That is crazy, but I dont know if I would pursue that.
