I'm sorry, after several days of this, I can't help but throw in a reference to the story of Sir Trude, a (female) SCA knight who was the subject (not victim!) of an attempted mugging in NYC while walking home from an event in full chainmail and carrying a broadsword. Rather than retell the story, I'll just include a link to the filksong written about the event by Ioseph of Locksley, entitled http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/susan/sf ... eyrsix.htm]"I'll See Your Six!".
