Racism is one of many forms of prejudice - so if racism can be funny, so can prejudice.Originally Posted by GepperRankins
You should have told him
The point of this thread is that I went in thinking I was trouble, only to find out that everyone else seemed afraid of me.
It is a rough place, that much is, as far as I know, true. Which in itself has nothing to do with the colour of those that live there.
I looked out of place, so people feared me, I reckon.
I'm not sure why I, alone as I was, could frighten them so.
Most of the dicks who are out to beat people, be they skinheads/nazis/racists (anything but unheard of, here, which is why I made that connection, btw) or something else, run in packs (possibly 'cos they need to pool their IQ in order to walk straight).
In any case, it felt odd, having people seem frightened of me like that.
I was reading the top post and it made me realise, when I'm out with my son and someone walks past, I always usher him away from the path I think another person will take 'cause kids never look where they're going.
A small person can get hurt walking into a big person, maybe the Dad was just looking after his boy rather than being a bit scurred. Don't know if that makes a difference to what you thought.
Glad you got home
Hi sons weren't that small, one was prolly at least thirteen, and the other not much younger. And it definitely wasn't the impression I got, looked more to me as if he was trying to protect them. But maybe.
I really did think I was trouble there for a bit, tho' after having passed through there myself now, I can't say I'm impressed with the scariness. Maybe it's worse in the weekends or something.
Me Dad was forever telling me that if I'm in a spot like that, to walk with my chest puffed out, looking dead ahead, eyes bulging and fists clenched by my sides - as if I'm going somewhere to beat the shit out of someone. That way, apparently, the would-be muggers will leave you alone and beat up an old lady or something.
Never actually tested that theory, however
You might come off looking as you need to use the toilet, possibly, if you do that
Maybe bringing an old lady with you, to use as a decoy, like, might be better.
i think being really nice works better. cause the fags that actually enjoy a good fight don't know what to doOriginally Posted by manker
Snny I conclude from this that you are one scary ugly looking dude.
