Looking at the situation from a very different perspective I have to tell you that I see my old idealistic self coming through in your writing. I have to say that my viewpoint is tempered with the realization that I find myself in agreement with your basic point. Those thugs are products of society. I am sure they are poor, lack intelectual curiosity, have few positive role models, have no a/c and generally live hand to mouth in a quite shitty environment. On the other hand, they have opportunity to better themselves. They have access to a great educational system, world class libraries, all kinds of after school programs, sports, etc. Why is it that few stand outs take advantage of these things and the majority jsut look for trouble? Who knows? All I know at this point in time is that Stefano is correct in his description. If were with you I beleive I could have killed them. Thank God you are OK! Continue to watch your back.

Ma almeno il fatto che tu abbia pernstao e scritto di questa rubata i fa vedere, che tu sia veramente presa dall'esperienza brutta. I would be to. I was, I mean. I would be again. Something like violence caused by boredom, poverty or just lust for a ventile to let out the agressions...whatever it is, it shocked me all the time. Last year I have been on a party in Freiburg, only students, fun and music. Than on the dance platform there was a guy who became obnoxious punshing with his albow, dancing as thuogh he wolod be the only one on the platform. I left. A few hours later, at least three hours, I came back and this guy was still there. I was a bit more drunk, he probably too, so when he started taking his place again jostling and hustling, especially in my direction: I gave hi a Fuckyou-Kiss sending it though teh ait to him. Than I saw black, because he punched me with his forehead on my nose. Well, my fault, because he provoked me and I was stupid to enough to react. What I want to tell is that the motives of the violence can be so diffenrent and so atrocious just because... i was mugged in Berlin three times, and always I am sure the kids did it because of boredom. I dont have such a theory and causality for it as you wrote up there, but what shell we do? Ignorance for the reason for violance or beeing afraid of the violance...trying to stay out of it. Saving your own savety. Sorry, it doesnt make sence, I cant really think of what I am writing. I just want anticipate your feelings and experiences. I just hope you take advantage of your badluck. Tutto ti aiuta. a presto Joachim Liebe Allison, to be honest, all of your argumentation was not easy ti understand for me, some words…peccato.
