    Thumbs down drive bys

    Hey hey everyone...The thread title, looking down the barrel of a gun(even though my story has nothing to do with that particular thread) made me want to post this little life story... One night after my Iaido class, i had to take the bus home...my dojo is in a reletivly good part of the town but i had to walk to the "ghetto" which is where the only bus that goes from oshawa (the town i was in) to my town...so its about 11 at night or so I'm by myself waiting patiently for the bus to come when I hear the thudding of a bass drum coming from nearby, as it gets louder I see that its a car pumping out some rap tunes i thaught nothing of it at the time, but as it passes where im standing, the car slows way down and the windows roll down...at this point my heart starts to beat a little faster, the passenger reaches over the driver sticks out a hand gun pointed right at me...now my heart is really racing...but the driver pushes the gunmans arm back in the car...and then they drive off...a few minutes later I could have sworn I heard gunshots coming from the direction they drove off in...I dunno but I think could have been a target for a random drive by shooting. Scary stuff if i do say so myself. So I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience.
    Cheers

    The last drive-by we had here made the news for nine months (and still does):

    Geez, please be careful. After such an experience I think I'd be in Mega-Zanshin mode whenever in that neighborhood!

    It would have been funnier if they had then proceeded to say "Ah, sorry, wrong guy. Go about yer business." ...then maybe threw you a book of coupons or something. I don't know.
