When I saw the riots strike....

One fine night,I was on casually with my roomates for dinner....I was walking in the middle and two others in the ends.cool was the weather and happilly we were moving down the lane with breeze soothing us around.....we were chatting something ridiculous as ever....loud and joyous....fun as ever.....

As we went past the lane...There was slightly lonely spot...where we a saw drunkard kindof guy came slightly clloser and salluted us...We just shyed away from him...and tried to pass on...

Suddenly,that guy balsted a slap on my friend walking in the left...we were awestruck n ferocious....I just lifted him and he angrily reciprocated him with good slap...man there started the riot....around four or five guys piled in and started attacking him....i tried my best pull him out but he was not ready to pushoff...I told him to run..but no he wanted to fight it out...but they were very powerful to us...four five hard looking guys...no doubt they were ferocious without fear...he was beaten, i tried all my efforts to pull him and run off the sight....other friend ran off the sight(poor dude small boy..)...I don know when...I just survived a kick which was not very powerfull though.....

Then I somehow dragged him away and I pleaded them to leave us in peace....I was shouting "Please boss...leave us leave us...."I did feel embarrassed to call these inhuman dogs with respect...but the situation was like tat...i had pull my friend out of this,before he gets worser....good number of people gathered around and no one had a clue what was happening...even we don't!!!..finally we somehow came out of the fight and things did calmed down....my friend luckily survived with no injury with his shirt torn and lost sandals......Thanks to God.....

Well,my intension from first was to escape....I didn't wanna fight...I felt we have a lot of better things to do,we can't face the police and all shit that follows...If he had ran away after the first slap.....we could have avoided rest of the shots he got and it would have been much better....But it's very obvious human's reaction with a blow to a blow...but I doesnt make sense....we cant fight coz we fear and respect the laws and bound to follow them....

Well,It's around a year since i'm in bangalore...I used to walk around to my friends places even at midnight 2.00 AM...I felt life was peacefull....but u never know.....lifez full of accidents...u never know whats next.....

Few things I would like to share with my experience are
  1. Never try to fight back...if u have a chance to escape even if u find yourself strong enough...coz u never know how many others are behind...
  2. Hold your conciousness and understand the fact that we all can't fight like masters and try to run away...
  3. Be alert even in slightly lonely areas...have a keen watch around
I'm not a coward,coz I didnt run alone which i could have easily done....but I pulled my pal out of danger...facing the danger around....All I feel is if we could have reacted much smarter by escaping from the scene....I wouldn't have been writing this blog....and spending an hour's time... :)

I would like to say the common dialogue...prevention is better than cure....so folks better prevent than trying to fight it out...Its always nice to think about,hear these stories but its real hard to face when u yourself face the grave.....

Life's once,hence play it with care......
