I seem to live in an area populated by townies. If you donīt know what
townies are then youīre very lucky. I think the most accurate description I
can give is īpeople who are prejudiced, bigotted, extremely violent and
dress entirely in Kappa / Adidas.ī If you donīt look like them then you
stand a very good chance of being beaten up.
My boyfriend has had his nose broken. (Heīll have to ahve an operation when
heīs eighteen.) A friend was beaten up *in school* and ended up with two
black eyes and numerous other bruises. My best friend and her now
ex-boyfriend were assaulted at the back of a bus while the bus driver did
nothing. They both had to go to hospital for x-rays.
The police donīt do anything. The teachers wonīt do anything. I canīt do
anything, or at least, I donīt know what I can do - thus the purpose of
this topic - suggestions would be very very gladly recieved. If anyone has
any ideas of how incidents like I mentioned above could be avoided then I
would be very grateful to hear them. ____________________

Or something indeed lethal, like Hu Chi Wan (Dance of the Caterpillar) I
made that up... 
But anyway... carry a knife, I guess. Or a baseball bat. Bats are goth as
fuck. 
Carry cans of mace, strapped to you on a grenade vest... Carry grenades, on
your keychain where the mace usually is.
Carry around a -Real- mace... Go medieval on their ass...
But avoidance isnīt really an option... since they LOOK for you... ____________________

| Call the FBI, itīs a form of hate crime. If they wonīt listen, call one of
the major news networks, hell, MTV did a thing on hate crimes against gay
youth in highschools not to long ago (Or at least I think it was MTV) Call
people, they are all toll free numbers and the īalterna-teenī crowd is
getting alot more recognition as an actual group these days. ____________________

buy some mace. that works nicely. be prepared to hit back and wear steal
toe boots. go for the knees, it actually hurts more and incapacitates more.
that is what we did when i was younger.
we still got beat up, but they got hurt too and didnt come after us a
second time.
And i feel for you. it sucks to live with the threat of violence and the
feeling that you cant escape it. ____________________

Oops, Thanks Dev. Hey, then call the BBC. They might carry the story and
expose the Shmeng thatīs flying in your town, it might even get broadened
into a īwhatīs happening in our nationī thing and theyīll check other towns
as well. It could go well. On the other hand, Mace is a sweet defense to
just about everything if you can get it into their blood veins

Yeah, I am in the UK. The police force seems to be oblivious to what the
townies do, the guy who assaulted my friend on the bus had just been
released from prison... you think the cops did anything? It was a *guy* as
well - they seems to have no qualms about hitting girls.
Itīd be great to īget medievalī on them... they wouldnīt know what hit
them! (Literally... they arenīt exactly know for their high IQīs)
Sometimes the girls can be the worst... itīs really annoying to be called a
whore by someone who could be mistake for a hooker if she wore a little
*less* makeup! Very bitchy of me, I know. ____________________

It doesnīt matter how big they are, how tough, and strong and cool...
In the end, meaner than hell beats stronger than shit.
Next time something like that happens, play smart...play vicious, and play
for keeps. ____________________

Be the weiner dog to their meeter maid....the pimple right before prom.
Cops usually wonīt do shit the next time if they didnīt the first, so fight
back! Like the mighty weinerdog, in the wrong circumstance, can be as
terrifying as a pitbull.
If your friends were beaten on a school bus and the driver did nothing,
have them sue the school district. The drivers arenīt blind/deaf/impotent
ferriers of bodies to and fro...they are there to do that and to PROTECT
you. You are THEIR responsibility when you are on their bus, so make them
own up to it.
And the "alternateen" crowd isnīt just being accepted as a bonafide
"group", I even once saw an inkling of thinking theyīre actually
PEOPLE...with RIGHTS! preposterous!
*shakes head* at least itīs good to know that not ALL the assbackwards
retards live in america exclusively... ____________________

One of the more fun and interesting ways of getting rid of people like that
is fucking with their expectations. When someone decides to pick on someone
else, they are expecting one of two things, either kicking them down the
domination totem pole, or getting into a physical altercation...both of
these things they are expecting...so choose option C. Go off the wall and
do something completely random...my favorite is just screaming at the top
of your fucking lungs and then becoming almost comatosely quiet.
All in all though...I hate to say it, but sometimes you have to lower
yourself to their level a certain degree...take the war to them. The
difference between "them" and "Us" is that our brains occasionally juice up
and churn out some nifty shit. Use it...violence doesnīt solve everything,
but creative acts of inhumanity and vicious wrath can solve a hell of a lot
more problems than people realize.

ok know what you have to do? we have the same problem here in wisconsin
*sigh* it may be a bit ..uhhh.. (cant think right now) more subtle.. but
it still happens.. what i did to avoid it (and yes contrary to popular
belief you CAN in fact avoid it..) is intimidate them.. not face to face
but have a good record.. i dont mean be a goody goody cuz thatll only make
it worse but if you get in a fight.. make it a good one.. or defend a
friend to someone you know you can beat or whatever
speaking female to female i know what your going through.. my school has
this thing called senior hell night where every senior who wishes gets to
beat the shit out of someone while there friends hold them back.. no way to
escape it right? wrong. join a group that you wouldnt normally join
(wrestle or do martial arts.. fence something like that) and make it
known..
it works if you let it
good luck with your townie problem
if nothing else give them the EVIL EYE!!!! :evil:
:grin: :grin:

Thanks for all the input.  Let it be known
that I am now investing in a pair of steel toed DMīs. ::Evil grin::
As for fucking with their expectations, like Dolo said, I think that having
a girl actually stand up to them would be a pretty big shock!
Bettie - My friend wasnīt beaten up on the back of a school bus, just a
regular public service bus (with other passengers on it). When her mother
found out they called up the bus company and they told her that the driver
had radioed in about īa disturbanceī (bullshit, he did nothing, not unless
he waited till they were off the bus to do it) and that the company has a
policy of not putting itīs drivers in danger. Meaning they excused him for
doing nothing. Would yelling at the guy to get off the bus have really put
him in *that* much danger???
Anyway, thanks again guys! ____________________

Ah, thought you meant schoolbus...
This is the reason Iīve avoided public transportation at all costs.
This is all bullshit, regardless of what the cops/school/fed system says.
Senior beat night? Fuck that! In the US there is a LAW against hazing of
new initiates to fraternaties or of anyone into any club including
highschool (the mother fucker of ALL clubs in life). Search and see if
such a rule exists in your country.
Self defense in most cases is your only option. So learn to kick the shit
out of things. The problem with martial arts or any other "deadly"
training such as boxing, kickboxing, or karate (and other forms of martial
arts) is that if you assault (in defense or otherwise) anyone without
alerting them of the fact that you are "trained to kill" and you fuck them
up, you can be held libel to their injuries whether or not you instigated
the confrontation. On the lucky side, saying "I have to warn you Iīve been
trained in _________" to most idiots is a direct challenge or a challenge
of their manhood, making them eager to make an ass out of you and your
stupid "karatee" and then you can proceed to bootfuck them without
liability.
You need to do some legal research as to what your country says your rights
are, and what you can do about it and who you can turn to.
Before you kick ass, RESEARCH. Knowledge is your edge, a nice absorbent
brain, and quick wits.
Good luck ____________________

Heh heh, martial arts... I used to do Tae Kwon Do, but I completely sucked
at it! I quit just before my second grading because I had exams to do.
:cry: ::Shrugs:: I think I just wasnīt designed to martially kick arse.
As for finding about about the laws, Im definitely going to look into
that... I really do need to find out some things, such as what constitutes
harassment etc...
Pathetic though it is, I personally have a modicum of protection from the
fact that Iīm dating the guy that the townies think is the īhardestī out of
our group. Thatīs sort of sad really, my only protection being the person
Iīm in love with. At least he gets to be chivalrous! ____________________

yeah, try Shuai Chiao (one of the oldest and easiest to learn forms of
Chinese martial arts). It can be very effective and since the goal of it
is to gain control of your opponent, you can choose to either just disable
them (in an embarrasing way) or to fuck up their world. Most Shaolin Kung
Fu places teach it and itīs pretty simple and useful.
Meat-heads suck and they know it, therefore they always feel they have
something to prove. The problem with using violence, however, is that it
almost always escalates - if you emabrrass some dumb guy by kicking his
arse, heīll want to show you heīs tough by bringing along some friends to
kick your ass, etc, ad nauseum. ____________________

"if you emabrrass some dumb guy by kicking his arse, heīll want to show you

Yeah, I know what you mean. I want to be able to stand up for myself in a
fight, but not to the point where I keep getting in fights because they
know that Iīll fight back. I suppose I need to find a way of showing the
townies that Iīm not going to put up with their shit, without seeimg like
Iīm īasking forī a fight.
Iīve never heard of Shuai Chiao before, I guess Iīll have to look into
that, see if there are actually any places nearby which teach it.
As to having a ībig scary manī on my arm, I guess itīs not such a bad
thing. ;-) It certainly has itīs merits. ____________________
