    Night out? I don’t mind a 15 minute walk but anything above and I’m getting my keys ready for any wanna-be muggers

      I was held at gunpoint 50 feet from my apartment at about 6:00 PM, in south Florida. I also walked for miles through a forest at night under a full moon in Michigan at 2:00AM, without incident. I don’t think the distance or time is as important as where you are walking. The mugger in Florida got a face full of pepper spray and went home crying with his gun.
