Yeah, I do try to practice situational awareness. Again, I was worried about pick pockets and had my son trailing me by a couple of paces.
I guess I was prepared for the wrong crime. My “intelligence” told me that the problem was not surprise assault from behind but theft. All in all, I probably should have checked up on what the actual problems with down town crime were, and not relied on my prior assessments. My LEO friends have said that the down town situation has changed considerably in the last few months.

Hmmm, what possibly could have caused that?
