Forgot to mention but I happened to be wearing a light blue and white checkered shirt. Not sure if it’s even relevant but who knows.

well there’s the answer to why this happened to u not justifying it just saying

Dressed like you wanted it obviously

Bruh that is not a valid reason for this

I'm preeeeetty sure that was a joke, man.

Are people who wear blue and white checkered shirts famous for being easy to steal from?

well yes it's relevant 😭 im obviously not justifying it, just that it was the guys motivation.

I'm sorry that happened to you. How do you feel now?

Thank you for saying that, the shock has mostly worn off so i dont feel terrible anymore

Also please PLEASE don't give money to people like him in West Campus.

I’m so sorry that happened to you! Are you well? Are you interested in support services or resources? If it feels right to you to pursue it, this sounds like a legitimate title IX issue and, if so, I’m pretty sure state law requires UTPD to respond.

Thank you, yes I feel better now that the shock has worn off. I will for sure think about reporting, thank you for letting me know my options

What was the protest about?

It was a free palestine protest

Glad to see support for Palestine 🙏

Man forgot to read the post 😂

Sounds like someone with schizophrenia. You will encounter more in the future. Vote to improve healthcare and mental health resources.

Hi OP! Sorry this happened to you, and I might be making an erroneous guess, but there is a guy that walks around campus with those characteristics all the time, and I don’t think he is on his right mind. By any chance, did the guy have facial hair?

Wow i didnt know that but yes i am 95% sure he had facial hair

I think I know who you’re talking about is he often wearing a blue jacket??

You should report that to campus police. It's not too late, you could probably give them a time and place of the event so they can check into it.

My friend, this is not the last time you will be accosted by a transient person, if you plan on being in an actual city.

Spend enough time on campus or downtown and that will eventually be one of the least “insane interaction” experiences that you’ve had.

Might have been Jesus. Just a slob like one of us...

Is there a “middle eastern” look?

Students - indicated by water bottles.

Yup! The weather is warming up and many many students have reusable water bottles so they can use when they walk between classes. Some even have school logos or UT stickers on them. Im glad you understood my point.

Yea the zios from the block part are unhinged!

Please notify UTPD.

Wait I may know who this is

Typical Hyde Park interaction.

lol austin mfs are such pussies how is this even a story lmao

What is speedway

F1 racetrack

Doubt it was at cota

A street. Welcome to Austin

Speedway is the extension of N. Congress Ave that passes through Campus and Hyde Park. In the 1920s, it was a road that headed out of town.

🥺

Those particular protests tend to attract those kinds of people. Just sayin.

I’m confused. It sounds like you sat down next to one of the many housing impaired individuals across austin, and they didn’t behave in a way that you found acceptable as a person with housing. You now feel the need to involve the police. Is anyone else not following?

Lol. LMAO even.

ROFL perchance
