Have you ever been kidnapped, if so, what happened?

Sort of. By a cop😒😒😒 I mean, every time I’m arrested, I consider that kidnapping😂 But this one was crazy because I was eight years old and in second grade.

I was at the school bus stop one morning and another kid who was a couple years older than me was boasting about how good he was at football (he really wasn’t good😂). I made a very innocuous and ultimately good-natured comment along the lines of “that’s because I’m too young to play. As soon as I’m old enough, I’m going to play to! Then we’ll really see who’s better!” (Funny in retrospect because little kids look ridiculous playing football, I’m sure neither of us were any good in the grand scheme of things lmao.)

I don’t know what happened, what I said or how I said it that made him so mad, but the older kid just turned bright red and punched me right in the nose. I was so shocked, not even from physical pain, but I just was so astounded that this kid would respond like that, there was absolutely nothing hostile happening. I felt the blood start pouring and I just lost it. Within a couple seconds, I had him knocked down and straddled and was just beating on him while simultaneously hysterically crying lmfao.

In the midst of that blind rage, I heard skidding tires and then a car door open, then I just got lifted off the ground by the back of my coat, violently. Next thing I know, I was thrown in the back of a police cruiser. The cop doesn’t even check on the kid I just beat up lmfao, left him laying there in a pile with the other shocked kids just standing in stunned silence. I’ll always remember that “oh shit, shit just got REAL” look on their faces as I looked out of the cruiser’s window.

Anyway, what ensued was psychological abuse, as I see it. The cop drove me around the city for what seemed like hours, telling me I was going to jail, that I can’t just go around beating people up. I’m tearfully trying to explain that it was a self-defense situation and that he just came at the wrong time (I mean, DUH, I was covered in my own blood), but he wasn’t having any of it. The guy starts telling me that I’ll never get out of jail, I’ll never see my mom and dad again as theyll
spend the rest of their lives wondering where I disappeared to, I’d never see my friends again, and then he asks if I had any pets, to which I said “yes”, and he said I’d never see them again either. Even at my very young age, I went into fight-or-flight mode and was literally trying to plot how I could steal his gun when I was taken out of the car and shoot him so I could escape.

It all ended, after all those theatrics, with him dropping me off at my school and bringing me straight to the principal, where I got chewed out even more. And I had done nothing wrong but defend myself against a violent attack, but they didn’t believe me.

I learned a lot about police that day: 1) these are not your friends and they do NOT have your best interests in mind; 2) whatever they say becomes fact, and whatever you say becomes a lie, in the eyes of the world, no matter how erroneous it might be to believe so.

On the bright side, when I got home and my mom started going in on me, I told her what happened, and she FLIPPED. I didn’t get to hear it, but I guess she called the principal the next day and ripped him a new asshole, lmfao, Mama Bear was PISSED. I just wish it wasn’t the 80s, we should’ve sued the shit out of the Boston Police Department, I could be living off of them right now if that just happened ten years later than it did😂

Yeah I have, not what people would class as kidnapping lol.

When in Air Force, anyone from another Squadron was at times fair game to being kidnapped.

We would drive over to their site and kidnap one if their engineers, usual drills were park up near stores, then when unsuspecting engineer walked past our vehicle, we would grab them, shove a hood over them then bundle in to vehicle.

Drive off and send a ransom request, usually crate of beer for their release.

i was kidnapped a couple of times.

We also did it on exercises, where playing intruder, you would capture some one or more and then drive off taking them for interrogation.

the only problem was at Endex (end of exercise) remembering that you had people tied up some place and to let them go, often it was Endex +1 or so when you remembered lol.

[SnakeBoop]

Apparently?
My mum told us our dad kidnapped us when we were young as some type of revenge on getting divorced?
But, nowadays I'm inclined to believe that's more bullshit made to stir up sympathy for her and mistrust between our dad.

[Agape93]

Damn

[douride2]

If you count forcibly held for hours against your will as being kidnapped then I have.

[Agape93]

I do indeed count that. You ok?

[douride2]

It happened a very long time ago.

[Agape93]

If you need to talk I'm here.

[Andres77]

I wasn't, my brother was and my cousin was.

Cousin, 12, was gangraped and let go.
He used to hide in the parking lot of a gay bar and ambush guys with a baseball bat for a few years when he was in his late teens.

My brother just started as a janitor at a beauty salon/school. He'd clean up after the school closed each night.
One night he was locking up, a group of men jumped out of the van that was parked just outside and pulled him in. They drove to an isolated area.
My brother pulled a knife and sank the knife in a guy's chest. he got away in the confusion.

[Tiptoetamm]

I can't say that I have. If a taxi driver taking me to the next town before bringing me to my location without my permission kidnapping, than I guess. It wasn't really anything that crazy

[Andres77]

@Tiptoetamm glad you were safe.

[lilyanony1]

That's absolutely awful.
Wtf kind of life is that!!
Jesus!!
In my school a white van was kidnapping girls.
One of the girls was pulled in to the van and the guy didn't lock the van properly.
She literally had to jump free whilst he was still driving.
We weren't allowed to walk home alone.
I had a curfew anyways but my mum was especially worried at that time.
She usually called me at 4 to make sure I was home but now she was stressed.

[Andres77]

@lilyanony1
I try to defend good men against my daughter's militant feminist indoctrination... but these guys still exist.
Me desperately trying to be a good man is the only tangible hope that there are SOME good men out there.

[lilyanony1]

I'm really sorry your relatives experienced this ordeal!

[Andres77]

@lilyanony1 thanks, dear.

[Guy13]

In a manner of speaking. I met a girl and we shared a friend. So I went to her townhome. I think she dropped something in my drinks cause I don’t remember anything. I woke up naked caged in a secured dog box until Sunday. I also did not see the camera that was lodged in and around picture frame 🖼. Does that count❓

[Agape93]

That does count.
The fuck, people are fucked up

[Guy13]

Sometimes especially given I known her friend since grad school (7) years. The freaks friend apparently does not know and I have never told…Guess it could have been worse…like put on Facebook. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Anpu23]

Yes. I think I've told the story enough times now but if not I got into a strangers car ehen I was 13 or so.

[Agape93]

I remember love, you don't have to say anymore

[Hannajenky]

Yes, and my kidnappers force me to check my gag account

[Agape93]

That's horrifying

[CuriousMufuxka]

I have not. Believe there would have been a lot of resistance before I was finally restrained.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

No, thank God it never happened
