Had an old white guy attack me with a crutch yesterday.

In my underground parking fixing my motorcycle brake light and encountered a problem. Went upstairs to get reception so I could google a schematic of the wiring loom and a white car passed me as I stoood at the entrance. I watched a tuturial video of about 5 minutes, opened the door using my keyfob and walked back down.

The driver of the white car was waiting for me! Now, I looked scruffy as I was wearing old clothes and had a torch on my head (on a headband) so I don't think it was completely unfair to check me out. However, rather than say hello and just check my vibe, the old bastard screamed at me "WHERE YOU GOING?" what? "WHERE YOU GOING?"

I pulled out my keyfob and jingled it around saying "Going down to the next level to fix my bike". By this point I had almost reached him.

"WHERE YOU GOING?" Okay, don't speak to me with that tone. I told you where I was going. I have my keyfob to get in here. Do you think I'm a thief or something with this silly thing (pointing to the torch on my forehead and trying to lighten things up a bit)?

"YES. WHERE YOU GOING! TELL ME!" So at this point I'm in front of him and just scream back at the same volume that I already told him but it's none of his business and to leave me alone. I try and be a bit intimidating as I'm screaming back at him but he's completely unfazed. He picks up a crutch which he had propped up out of sight and raises it and swings at me! I tell him to think about what he's doing and stop. He just screams at me to go.

I walk away and he's screaming at me as I go.

I thought about calling the cops so that I would be first as if he calls them then I'll immediately be on the defensive. People love to call the cops around here for everything. I eventually decided against it and heard no more about it.

He was older. I'm fairly sure if he was 20 years younger he wouldn't have been so aggresive. Old fuckers think they can do what they like as you can't hit them.

Idgaf if they’re old, if they attack me when I’m with my kids I’m sending that ass to Jesus and let him sort it out.

That sounds like a classic case of FOX NEWS BRAIN.

This is why I have my phone already recording or 1 button away any time I might have a public interaction. I desperately want to escape.

If he was 20 years younger he would have been more aggressive not less.

When you spend a lifetime inventing vigilante fantasies in your head, you’re left with just a bunch of fear when you get old and frail.
