What is this neighborhood?
Today, I was out jogging, when I saw a girl fall off her bike and start crying. I ran over to see if she was hurt. Apparently her neighbour thought I was trying to kidnap her, because he ran out with a baseball bat and threatened to beat me to death if I didn't get lost. FML

Awkward situation, but at least both of you only wanted to help the girl! Kudos to both!

I love it when the OP's name is something snarky like that.

You did good op, but it would be nice if people asked questions first before going off the deep end. But its nice to know we still have good semaritans like yourself.

I would have broke that bat over his head...

the neighbor needs to get his facts straight, but no harm no foul right? I'm curious if he thanked you afterwords or did you just jog away.

Who has a baseball bat in England? I thought you guys ridiculed our national pasttime. You guys have to admit, some of the equipment make handy weapons.

A cricket bat works well too

too much wind resistance

#28, when I've seen cricketers try baseball, they use an upside-down grip and get very little power. If the OP is a pedophile, he might be relieved to see his nemesis using an impotent grip.

I never see people play baseball in parks or anything in Britain, so I reckon perdix hit the nail in the head here in that bats are generally owned as weapons... Better than guns though...

I think baseball bats and rounders bats are the same :P

I believe the Canadians have the best sports weapon, the hockey stick. It has less wind resistance and much more reach

I'd love to see OP grab the bat and beat that asshole with it.

I'm sure if you quickly explain the situation he won't hit you that hard.
