Attacked for no reason while walking
I am born and raised in Ireland. Me and my friend (20year olds) went to collect our Dominos order. While returning to our parked car, around 10-15 kids (10-15 year olds) crossed roads and came over to our side. We reached our car and were about to get in. We didn't do anything, didn't look at them, say anything etc. completely minded our own business.
A small kid just started kicking my friend multiple times.
He kicked him back like once or twice lightly just to get them off him. Then another one came and smacked him in the eye very hardly. We got in the car quick and left.
I don't know what i could have done, if we react our punch could easily knock them out possibly accidentally Kill them. If we even do start to react theres like 10-15 of them and they could even be carrying a knife. Going to the police is the biggest waste of time as they couldn't give 2 shits. I have no clue how we can live here. This happened in artane. What should we do in these situations.
