I have been attacked, mugged, jumped or whatever you want to call it, twice in my life. Both were racially motivated. The first, I believe, was a gang initiation thing and I was the unlucky sob white guy to be walking by minding my own business. Not too bad, a broken tooth, mildly cracked jaw and a bruised outlook on life at 16. Outnumbered by at least 8-10, I got sucker punched pretty good. The second time it was a brutal attack while in college. Jumped from behind, kicked and punched senseless, probably only alive today due to helpful citizens that came to my rescue. My head look like a head of cauliflower, cuts and lacerations, had bruises all over my body, white shirt was blood red. Over 6 assailants. Both instances were accompanied by racial slurs and such. Someone called campus police and cops but they took over an hour to show up!! Still have occasional aches in my facial area from the injuries after nearly 20 years later. It took weeks if not months for allof my injuries to heal for the most part. I still have emotional scars to this day. I wont be caught off guard again!
