Had something similar happen a few years back on Chapel St. that ended with myself prone on all fours receiving a rather hefty boot to the face (apparently, I don't recall).
Suffice it to say, the next time I was in a 'heightened situation', I ended up bearing down on someone with a totally over the top response. Thankfully I pulled away at the last moment.
Personally, I think you have to make a decision not to let this shape you (other than a general awareness I guess). Sure, you can eyeball every half-breed that crosses your path each time you drink, but then you'll be joining the paranoid angry mass that feeds on this kind of violence.
Besides, your face was too pretty.

One of the biggest things I've had to realised is that things are a bit different over here. I know it's not exactly our sort of scene, but how often do you hear of glassings in Melbourne? I think it would almost make the papers provided there wasn't a test match on.
General awareness is about right... and hey, some guys just write hardboiled, I fucking live it, man!
