[QUOTE="nola, post: 1188196, member: 11580"] I kept it real once when I was 19 years old in TJ Mexico. A guy snatched my cell phone from my hand when my friend at the time was trying to score some blow "from a guy he knew". I smoked him in the face and that was pretty much my demise after that. I ended up fighting my way out the car "keeping real" because I thought I was a tough guy. While I managed to get out of the car I quickly learned not only was it the guys in the car that were trying to kidnap me..... four guys in a car behind us were also part of their crew. After I was beat and robbed by 6 guys (one with a aluminum bat.) I was left on the side of the road incapacitated with broken ribs, arm and a fractured eye socket. Luckily someone saw everything and helped me get to the boarder crossing. I think if they had not knocked me out they would have killed me. As my friend that was kidnapped later told me they said we killed your friend. My friend complied and ended up stabbed and robbed then released on the street a week later but luckily survived. Note: I was a seasoned boxer and a state wrestling champion that made it to US Nationals and had competed since I was 11. I barely made it out of the car against one guy who I'm sure was not his first merry-go-round. Also when you are not fighting in a controlled environment go ahead and subtract about 85% of your skills. Subtract 100% when you're facing more than a single opponent. I was lucky they didn't stab and shoot me for good measure. Don't put your life on the line for some cash and a passport. You're already lucky you walked away without a scratch on you and a bit of a bruised ego which is better than being dead. You're in South America man, if you fuck around it's not going to be like squaring off with some retard at a western university town watering hole. You never know... that guy might be related to some very dangerous people. Also if you try don't think that guy won't put you out there if you did successfully beat his ass and get your shit back or you'd be foolish. If he meets you again I'd suspect it'll not be unarmed or alone. Then you'll be calling your mom and dad begging them to Western Union your ransom plus still get killed after. You can call the US Consulate there and ask them how many missing peoples reports they get a month and hear for yourself. Now as a combat veteran with lots of random training and experience in my mid 30's, I still walk away from fights in places I'm not a local. This shouldn't be a regular thing unless you're an asshole. Even in Ukraine with this crypto-currency trend two people were kidnapped last time I was in Kiev for crypto-currency ransoms which make it even easier now to not get caught. Only carry photo copies of your passport when going out and keep a side stash of cash somewhere else on you. If you want to be really cautious keep a dummy wallet on you with a little cash in it and some useless shit in it too make the wallet look legit. Hand it over and walk away. You should only get into physical confrontations when your life or physical well-being is actually on the line and you literally have no other options.
