Ok, so my University sends out e-mails whenever a crime is reported by a student to alert the rest of the student body etc. this is not the safest city in the world so it typically is a few people getting held up at gunpoint and robbed or such like. We got one a few days ago however that made me sit back and go

Um. What?

I guess you don't expect people to be talking to you at 6am but still what?

Down here everybody talks to everybody else on the streets! It's a politeness thing! I mean if it was 3am maybe but 6am? that's getting up and jogging/going to work time. The only crime here is this girl's presence in an institution of higher education.

L. o. l. I can't even. Yeah that sounds super terrifying. I hope no one walks up to me one morning and says hey. *eyeroll* So much stupidity.

and if your response to people speaking to you on the street is to throw your valuables at them, I think you have lost the right to report said valuables as stolen.

Hee, I read this out loud to my youngest brother (who's at an urban campus) and he LOLed. Like, I can understand maybe being jumpy about being approached by a strange dude if nobody else is around, but why on earth would you throw your wallet at him?
