Once those punks started throwing stones, you should've called the police immediately. Chances are, you're not the only victim.

Also, since you're near the tunnel entrance, you should also try to attract the Port Authority cops too.

I bought my own DIY haircut clippers from Marshalls for $25 in November and I'm getting better and better at it. I wear a safety hat / head gear for work anyway so whatever it looks like, idc. I'm getting better with fading. At least I'm not paying $40 for a cut every other week. So buy yourself home clippers.

No, I didn't know that, and I've installed so many locks I should get an honorary locksmith's union card. I just installed one this evening. Unless it's a roommate who's thrown a blind deadbolt, I'm all ears to hear how one gets locked out while actually having the keys to fully functional locks.

I've been harassed and threatened several times on the streets of downtown jersey city, every time by teens. I frankly just stay away from teens now.

I have indeed thought many times about what I could've / should've done, it's somewhat comforting to see many people agree here there's not that much to do.

None of the situations ended in violence so perhaps de-escalation and trying to get away is ultimately the best answer... sorry this happened to you too.
