between 1:15 & 3:45 a.m., every single day. At the end of the week, you receive 500k. Would you do it?



The walks must cover a distance of at least three blocks, so you can't just pace back & forth or try to pull some slick s*** like that.

Don't need the skills and composer to use them under severe stress. As long as you have them that's all important. If you kill someone for asking you for the time, that's on them.

I also like the addition of the blade, like in your head you're Solid Snake lol. In this setting, if you didn't get the jump with the gun, that blade isn't gonna cone into play. Especially untrained.

Detroit is a fucking great place.

I was born and raised in Detroit for the first 15 years of my life. It COMPLETELY depends on what part of the city you're in, as there are still very dangerous areas. You sound like someone who watched a documentary on Detroit's historical richness and just drew a conclusion from there.

These are tons of assumptions you have made and it honestly makes me chuckle.

You have a lot to unpack based on this huge wall to my one sentence.

I remember walking couple of blocks for hotdogs at night and seemed fine. That was downtown though, sure there are less safe places to be doing that.

I think the only mistake you made, TC, is specifically mentioning Detroit instead of just saying "the hood". Because although there are definitely scary parts of Detroit (and it's still considered the most dangerous city in America, according to various sources), people can always say that they'd just stay on the safer side of the city. By saying "the hood", though, you eliminate this safety net and force people to understand that you're talking about a pointblank dangerous neighborhood.

This. Even assuming you had to walk through the hood you can just dress with old clothing and carry nothing of value with you. Even if someone tries to rob you then you have nothing worth stealing.

Alternatively hire some personal security to walk around with you if you really feel insecure.

Yeah. As someone who also grew up in Detroit, I think TC was probably only thinking of his lived experience and not considering that Detroit has come a long way in the past decade or so. Still, there are indeed dangerous parts that you definitely wouldn't want to be in at 1-3 in the fucking morning.

They will try but once they realize I have nothing they will leave me alone. I can stand a few kicks/punches for 500k. I doubt they would be serial killers that would kill just for fun if you arent messing with them and don't have anything valuable. That's a total different scenario.

It's a much bigger risk for a woman to walk alone at night, let alone at early hours of the morning.

As far as "not carrying anything of value so haha jokes on you" a lot of times theyll shoot you anyway for NOT having anything valuable.

Unpack one thing. Are you under the impression that someone who just got a gun and knife for this wpuld be well trained? Or under the impression that Americans in general take gun training as serious as they should? I'm just commenting on how carelessly you said "all you need is a gun and a knife". It implies it's that simple to actually know how and when to use them correctly. Police officers can't even do it correctly. Half the people here would shoot the first person who nodded at them. These are inside men
