24. What was it like to be held up at gunpoint? discuss
Angry. That's what I felt above all else.
It was in my first week that I moved here to Costa Rica, and I was walking home from the office to my apt (like a 3-5 min walk). As I was almost at my house, a car screeched up and out jumped two guys with guns to either side of my head. They wanted the laptop.
These guys were scrawny colombians I would have loved to beat the hell out of them both, but I couldn't risk it since Colombians don't usually give a fuck about killing people and probably weren't bluffing. I gave up my laptop and was angry for awhile, but then I cooled off. I can't help but think though, that they might not have even had bullets, as lots of people here seem to mug others with empty guns.
Can't take the chance though I guess.
