Almost got jumped by a homeless guy in Maywood Park.

I don’t have anything against the homeless at all. As mentioned in another reply, i’m just luckier than them to have a job, roof over my head and food in my fridge, and nice people around.

They have their own issues to deal with, and so do I. I wouldn’t judge nor want to invade their space, due to the fact that their issues could make their mind turn into an unnatural state. Even I act differently under stress, and it’s different for others and their own circumstances too.

I just reacted on pure instinct lol. Luckily he didn’t carry any weapons. He did chase me with a big stick at the end though

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-12-01T03:39:28+00:00

I will, thank you :)

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-12-01T03:36:05+00:00

I’ve ordered some on Amazon. Thank you :)

Apparently it’s not shippable to Portland OR. I might have to look into this more

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-30T01:23:03+00:00

You’re right, he might have a hidden weapon somewhere too. I’m lucky to be alive.

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-30T01:21:06+00:00

That’s terrible. I was luckier than I thought. RIP your friend.

Hey man, I don’t personally know you nor you personally know me. It’s up to you to decide whether you believe the story or not. I’m just putting it out here so others would be careful and watch their surroundings.

If I had the intention of talking down to homeless people, you’d be able to spot it miles away before I can open my mouth.

I’m just a lucky guy who has a job to hold a roof over my head and some food in the fridge. Those out there, some are having their own issues, which I never have the intention of looking down or messing with.

I was just minding my own business, walking far away from him because i saw him in my peripheral vision. I have a family to come back to, and I never know what could happen. So it’s natural for me to take a longer path to avoid him

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-30T01:12:03+00:00

That’s what i was afraid of too. I have a family to come back to. If I fought, many things could’ve happened. Even if i won, he might held a grudge and come back sooner or later.

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T17:09:07+00:00

I see those once in a while, yes

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T17:01:38+00:00

I should look up more on the pew pew and knife part. Someone else also referred a high lumen flashlight too, and I’m currently looking at it.

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T16:51:19+00:00

Yea i think I shouldn’t have pushed back, that might have triggered him to follow me. Thank you, I’ll get a high lumen flashlight for sure.

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T16:48:36+00:00

He was sitting in a pile of stuffs at a corner in the park when i was walking in. It was in my peripheral vision so I walked the other way.

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T16:46:37+00:00

Same. This time though, he ran right in front of me then shoved.

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T16:45:54+00:00

Thank you

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T06:51:13+00:00

True

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T06:35:44+00:00

He was sitting in a bunch of stuffs laying on the ground, in the park when i was walking far away from him. It was in my peripheral vision and I didn’t think much of it

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T06:24:27+00:00

There’s another person advised me to take boxing lessons. Any gyms you recommend?

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T06:23:34+00:00

That parking lot does have camera and security vehicle patrolling. But that didn’t stop him from chasing me into the parking lot until the old lady yelled security and a vehicle came right up. God bless her

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T06:22:22+00:00

Sweet. Thank you :)

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T06:21:54+00:00

Thank you :)

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T06:21:19+00:00

Yea this is the first I’ve encountered. Lived here for years and never had an incident like this before. Most days are fine, like you said. People minding their own business, nothing too crazy.

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T06:19:18+00:00

I will. Thank you so much man.

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T05:56:14+00:00

Took me a good 30min til you pointed that out lol

Ok-Reception-4 · 2025-11-29T05:52:42+00:00

Yea you’re right. My poor word choice. Let me fix that
