Loobyou, Thank you for your message and I am glad that your boy is OK. Being mugged is an awful experience and I am sure we all agree that its lasting effects can be considerably more than being deprived of a phone or cash. Jim seems to suggest that the benefits of your post may be greater than the burden of fear that the post may create. This is a good point but if Jim considers reporting the mugging of a 14 year old as scaremongering, what crime would Jim consider serious enough to warrant such a post? I think we have the right to decide for ourselves what precautions are sensible and that we also have a responsibility to act if we think our children are more likely to get mugged at the location mentioned, your post contributes to this process. Limiting the potential profit to a mugger may help to deter muggings. A good way of doing so is to record your mobile phones IMEI (type *#06#). If mugged, the phone can be de-activated and becomes useless to the mugger if you use the web site here.

The guy in the bar that let you pay good ?cash money? for a beer and then decided to embarrass your friend was out of order and owes you both an apology. I mean your friend was only wearing a garment that had a hood! What would happen if you went in there wearing a Duffle coat I wonder. I think I still have one somewhere and I may test the theory.
