    I was coming off the subway when 2 guys attempted to mug me. Not knowing what else to do I pretended to be an immigrant with a poor grasp on English.

    Amazingly this worked and they left me alone but this shook me up

    Mug you?

    Does that mean they tried to steal something from you?

    Wow great idea to get out it.

    I hope you know, it is never worth your personal safety to fight back. Even me at 6 foot 3 and knows how to pacify, I would still give up my goods rather than risk someone getting hurt.

    But I would also make note of features such as tattoo's, eye color, height, clothes etc so the police can track the offender(s) down.

    I'm glad your okay! Good thinking on your part with regards to language. Did you report the attempted mugging to police? So the police are aware and hopefully catch these creeps.

    The part I left out is that someone behind me didn't like the attempted mugging and let the would be muggers know. Physically. A big guy. He held them for police apparently from what I was told after

    Good for you! I would never have had the presence of mind to think of something like that!
    So glad you're OK and they got caught!
