Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
I exited my ESL gig at 8:30 p.m. on Church Ave. and Flatbush Ave. I got a new part-time job there, rough area, I got tons of experience in these neighborhoods but this place is beyond special.
Two tall dudes about 40 yrs old shoulder me as I stepped up on the curb, spins me around, first guy grabs my elbow, second guy smashes a whiskey bottle to the ground, liquid is flowing everywhere, and he yells " motherfucker you just broke my bottle!". I said " you dudes slammed into ME!" I THEN pull out if first guy's grip and he says "you gotta pay my friend for that booze bitch! You knocked it out his hand, bitch"
I said " hell no! WTF?! You guys did it, or if was an accident". They said "look at this shit, $120 bottle of VSOP" ..... I SAID "I DON'T PLAY THIS SHIT, I GOT NOTHING ANYWAY, BROKE AS ALL HELL"
first guy gets down on his hands and knees and lunges at me, I jumped right, hit myself into a railing, and the 2nd guy says to the first "fuck that shit, hold up, he gotta pay", I took 3 steps into the traffic, luckily nothing was coming, and the first guy said " don't blow smoke up my ass, I can't bring this back to the liquor store and say it was an accident", so I crossed the street and got THE FUCK OUT OF THERE, WALKED TO THE Q TRAIN, KEPT LOOKING BACK FOR A FEW BLOCKS.
FUCK.
scared me good.

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
Glad you are okay. I know it sounds a bit gay, but buy yourself one of those rape sprays just in case. I don't really need one here as it is so safe, but do have some.

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
Shit, I payed those two guys a few bob to give someone a knock. Sounds to me like they got scared off, I want my bob notes back

Sums you up. What a fucking scumbag you are.

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
Glad you are OK Brock. See Miles sicko boyfriend thinks it's funny. Remember Catholics are not violent, as Miles said when trying not to gagg on reach around Wall's pecker.

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
No, Beanz. You are a fucking scumbag and my advice is genuine. Am I now responsible for Walrus and Brock not getting on now?
If you have issues with me, let's have it out. But as I always warn you, when you sucker punch me you get a verbal kicking back. I will never back down from that. You can either let it go or carry it on. I couldn't care less.
Brock knows me and what I am all about, so you can play on the truce/Walrus division all you like. The union is strong and all my truces are in order.

Rape Spray? In South Korea? Why? in case some 7 stone mascara wearing K-pop fan says boo to you? You are able bodied and apparently male, 9 foot tall and you are afraid of someone jumping out from behind a bush and forcing you to join in a Gangnam Style dance off ? :-X
Pathetic

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
Racist talk right there, Beanz. Young Koreans are probably tougher than many Brits who are unfortunately not in such good shape with the diets there. Most of them here learn martial arts as kids and they tend to dominate such events at the Olympics. They would snap you in two. However, in saying that I feel safe at all times as it is a safe society. Brock will back that up. You never know when you might get into trouble though and should be ready to defend yourself. You don't want to draw blood and so a defensive strategy is better from a legal standpoint. Brock is getting older and though he could take on a post peak GGG he would likely struggle with a couple of 250 pound crack heads. Temporarily blinded he would likely get away.

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
Thx all. First time I felt scared in a long time. Two against one, tall guys both 6 foot 2 or so, I'm about 5 foot 6, only thing kept me from really panicking was that they were about 45 years old, and high or drunk. Big black American dudes in a 100% Haitian/West African/Jamaican neighborhood. I stuck out like a sore thumb with my dress shirt and tie. Fuck, what violent scammers, working as a pair. He got in my face like Mike Tyson would do, 'motherfucker don't blow smoke up my ass, you owe me yo!!!" I stared him up as he was 8 inches taller than me, poker faced, shouting " what?! Hell no, I don't play this shit" and walked into oncoming traffic to GTF OUTTA THERE

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
Son of a bitch, any you dudes visiting NYC, I'mma tell ya, stay the FUCK put of Flatbush, Brooklyn, especially at night.

Nah mate. You fucking pigeon hole everything. That is racist you prat. I boxed and did Jiu jitsu from a young age. Smashed my arm at 11 after being thrown and was in traction for 3 months. Both my kids did Taekwondo too. So none of us need rape spray ;D

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
When he got on his hands and knees I would have toe-punted the cunts teeth through the otherside of his cannister then pivoted into a stance to launch a Suzy Q. The other dude would have shit himself and legged it. Trust me.
Remember that for next time, Brock.

Good point Fenster. the thing was when he got down on his hands and knees and lunged at me he was almost directly behind me so by the time that I spun over 90Β° to try to face him, he had already grabbed one of my ankles with his fingers and I spun out of it and smacked my back into a metal railing along the curb side as I was off-balance from that spin. I also strained my left calf muscle in the process but didn't realize it at the time
He then jumped back up and walked away from me. Throwing the Susie Q would have been tough at that moment π

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
I got to be honest. When you said a man got on his hands and knees in front of you I expected the story to go in another direction entirely. Glad you're OK.

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
Ahhhh now it makes sense. They were setting you up for a 'Table Top' https://www.urbandictionary.com/defi...?term=Tabletop
They were going to beat the shit out of you, then rape you. Or kill you then rape you.

I am hoping that your table top idea is not what it was. I think the guy who deliberately smashed the Bottle Into The Ground was trying to imply that by him and I knocking into each other that I had broken his expensive bottle of liquor that I should reimburse him for it. Indeed there was a lot of liquid pouring out of the bag and shards of glass everywhere.

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
You know you could be right because the guy was on his hands and knees also acting like he was at a funeral looking down into his black plastic bag which supposedly contained a VSOP bottle of liquor. I think this is a kind of scam where he is carrying around a broken bottle of liquor for weeks, and he must have a second bottle in the bag filled with water and when she smashes into the ground he shows the other bottle of VSOP as if it has just broken and then demands reimbursement for it

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
Of every crime that happened recently or through the year from petit larceny to murder at each block of the street, you can zoom to the exact block that you wanna visit. Murder is up, rape and assault are WAY up from 2012, which was itself the most violent year since 1995. From my perspective it ain't good. Trains arent safe at night, I took the Q train after this incident and it was really scary and I've taken just about every Subway in New York City in all five boroughs.... If you're only visiting not moving there, I'll say better look for bedstuy, crown heights ....

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
"I'm a young white female and I recently moved to Flatbush. I have not lived in New York before, but my boyfriend assured me the neighborhood was safe. I was told some
like don't walk certain areas, don't play with your phone walking around, don't show off your electronics, don't walk around late at night. But I still don't know if it is a good idea for me to live in this neighborhood and some really scary people, thugs, real ones not wannabe's. But today I was walking and some guy walking past just came right up to me and punched me. I don't know what to do. Is there anything I should avoid or look out for? Is this a alright neighborhood? but I don't see any white girls my age around here. Last week a Haitian guy pulled my hair and pushed me into a doorway, I ran out by kicking his shins."

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
Woah woah woah.....brock, where's the punching? Where's the animal instinct you have that would tear professional boxers apart? You let these guys off the hook a couple of two bit thugs and you let them off the hook.
Don't let them mistake your kindness for weakness...Rocky Marciano wouldn't have stood for that.
Glad you're ok though.
Story kind of reminded me of this

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
Lyle, this time was definitely scary. I've had run-ins before when I was living in Newark New Jersey and East Orange New Jersey and Irvington New Jersey and parts of Jersey City New Jersey. But this was different.
Flatbush Brooklyn is an animal all to itself and all by itself in a totally different League
Lyle I was just razzing you a bit about getting a rise out of the posters.

I don't doubt it was scary, you got that fight or flight juice shooting through your brain probably felt like 18 Red Bulls and 10 cups of coffee all at once.
Just razzing me eh? And how's that working out for you? ;D
I'm glad you were unharmed, but I expected more ferocity from you brock ;D ( just razzing you)

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
Lil Razzmatazz there, Lyle? π. Well I thought it was working out great wink wink.
Yeah there was definitely a drenalin it happened so damn fast those guys were watching me from across the street. There was a covered area where there was construction next to a cemetery and it was a big canopy and really dark over there and no street lights.
There are about 30 or 40 of us in the crosswalk waiting for the light to change it was a long light crossing over Church Avenue. When I got to the other side of the street most of the people turn right but I continued. Over towards the canopy area and that's when they hit me, like linebackers, shouldered me, one into my right shoulder, the other into my left lower abdomen, fucking spun me it did, but I didn't lose my balance.
FFS.

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
I'm sure you miss it, Brock. You are the only one who understands what I am talking about when I say how safe it is.
Anyways, glad you are physically unharmed. You have to carry a spray of some kind. I used to work relief around Manchester and Salford. I would finish at 10pm and it's not nice waiting for a bus in some of those areas either. Perhaps some of the roughest UK areas. I was lucky enough to not experience an armed robbery though or get beaten up. Others less so. It is grim.
Paris, New York, London. RIP.

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
O Miles how I miss the South! Yeosu is beautiful and never took the ferry to Jeju Island but always wanted to. My last boss there grew up there.... when I was working in Daegu, he said how he owns 22 Acres on Jeju Island where he grows those really tasty Mandarin Tangerine type things.
So safe so civil so quiet so calm
Good God what has happened to the West

Re: Almost assaulted tonight in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC
I remember all the parents of my students saying that their kid was going to go to be a CEO of LG or some big Corporation and I used to ask them who's going to fix the cars who are going to be the mechanics who are going to be the baker's who are going to be the recycling people? And they said their parents would kill them if they tried to go into any profession like that. That's the part that's wrong. They don't want to do any blue collar jobs everybody wants to go to the best university and be a CEO of a corporation. You can't run a country like that

You're on the "Angel of Light" list, so you have crossed the ~line~ too many times about "Jewish" dark comments.
I can say it freely, though, bcuz I'm Armenian

Have you ever worked in Salford or in the districts of Manchester? These have some of the most dangerous areas in the country. Maybe you could apply for a job up there. Maybe you could live where my friend did who had his window smashed in and his computer stolen. I work with a person here who went to the same University as me. Had his car broken into 4 times.
I would love to see you go up there with your lip and see how that pans out. ;)

Miles we once had some knob from Moss Side come into a pub on the estate that I grew up on boasting about how hard his manor was. He went to use the bog and someone put a broken bottle in his neck and then stabbed him. I remember the file going across my desk. Most of the class A drug violence down here was from gangs who moved down from Manchester and Liverpool thinking we were a soft touch. I have been robbed and burgled several times, until we could afford our own place I lived in tower blocks and some right shit holes, including a tent in the woods. When I lived in a shared house we were robbed once and when we found the guy who did it, someone kicked his door in and he pulled a gun out. He soon fucked off back to London and nobody was shot, because he was all mouth and no trousers. I have lived and worked in London, Milan etc. You get violence everywhere. My step-son started working nights in a wharehouse in his late teens and still does now at nearly 30. Not once has he moaned about getting on a bus in a rough spot or an industrial estate early hours of the morning.
Nobody is saying you should not use common sense but I learned very early how to defend myself and fight, having a psychopathic ex-marine step dad, an older brother, cousins etc and plenty others who wanted to have a pop. Have not thrown a punch in anger since my mid twenties and am glad to have it behind me.
