I'm black, but I laughed for a good minute when I read this.

Why does that matter? The OP is asking for advice, and you just want to know what race the muggers were...

:facepalm2:

Oh come now, are people really that sad to find someone? Or have I misjudged the retardedness of this country?


We saw from the london riots that a high percentage of the youth of today will do anything for a meal so im sure they would be on there way to his house

Sorry to hear

Personally I would change locks ASAP and just keep weapons around the house for the time being incase anything happens obv god forbit that happens.


Shut up! ^^^



Op it's not likely they'll be after your house, but if it makes you feel safer then get the locks changed. Are you renting? If so maybe you can ask the landlord.

As for the mugging, it's bad thing to go through, but don't let it put you off going about your daily business. Their just *******s with nothing better in their life, the fact that they stoop so low means their life is probably pretty ****, they're just pathetic.

Aww that sounds terrifying, poor you! My experience was a lot less scary and self-inflicted since I was drunk, am female and was walking 5 miles home but still not great... Small mercies with your 3DS!



No sympathy.
Oh that's awful, :frown:

Change your locks to be safe.

yes I do infact, kind of follows the "pick on your own size" rule.

What?
Being drunk does not justify a person being mugged.

Well tbh, if you live far from where you were mugged then I cannot see them doing anymore. Just remember to keep your stuff out of sight in public, especially in dodgy areas during early mornings. Try not to talk alone again as well.

STAY SAVE

I didn't say it did.

The OP knew that she would have to walk, in the dark, 5 miles. The OP should also know the local statistics for crime, and then take precautions to avoid becoming a statistic. One precaution, believe it or not, would be not getting drunk.

It's not rocket science.

No, the person who gets drunk is the idiot.

Rep-hunter.
It's a long shot but try going to iCloud.com and type in your details and see if you can find your iPhone. You/ they might have turned on the feature. Worth a shot I suppose?

www.iCloud.com

You need to put in your Apple ID and password.

Your iPhone can be jailbroken and usable again (depending on a lot of technical things which I won't bore you with here), but they'll need to wipe off everything from the phone so don't worry about that.

Yes that's worrying! Still, it's been over 24 hours now so I'm hoping that, if anything was going to happen, it would have done before now...

Not a feasible option but thanks anyway!

Yeah, I know. They were Asian, not that it makes any difference - so am I!

Thanks and yes I rent my flat in London - have only been there 2 months though and never spoken to the landlord so not sure he's going to be too happy!

Yeah I know, maybe I'll just be more cautious in future!

Think that's skewed logic but each to their own!
