My Faith in Humanity

Just took a tumble. I split up from my friends tonight to go home, but realized I didn't know where any of the bus stops were so I ended up walking 45 minutes to an hour in the rain to somewhere I knew. Right before I got there, a 6' 3" guy grabbed my arm and started roughing me up, asking what I was hiding in my jacket and that he'd seen me steal something. What he'd seen me "steal" were my headphones that I was just hiding in my coat because it was raining. But he wouldn't understand it and kept pulling me by the arm until I showed him. So he grabbed the headphones, said he was police, and that he had to take them from me. Then he followed the cord, reached into my pocket and pulled out my iPod. Said he had to take that too. I told him he wasn't a cop and to show me his badge, he told me he would take me to the other cops. I didn't follow him and he kept trying to pull me around. This whole process was about 5 minutes of him pulling me back and forth and me trying to tell him to let me go. But what really pissed me off was that there were about 15 people not even 20 feet away who just stood there and did nothing. I don't understand how that is possible. Tonight I promised if I ever saw anyone doing anything to someone else, I wouldn't just stand there, and I hope no one else does either. It's pathetic if 15 people can't stand up to 1. Eventually, I pushed him back, grabbed my headphones and iPod, told him I was a student without money and he should steal from someone else, that he should go fuck himself(quietly), and walked off. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to take a picture. Made it back safe and sound.

Sorry this post wasn't that funny or entertaining but I'm just too goddamn pissed off right now.

On a lighter note, The Social Network is a de-lightful film. Check it out.
