I wasn't sure if you were from the mafia and threatening him, or you were some christian fundamentalist nutjob. The drunk people comment points to christian fundamentalist. (For those not in the know, these extremists say things like alcohol is against "god's law", and therefore anyone who drinks is "evil." They say the same things about not going to their church on Sunday, or any activity their religious leaders don't condone as "wholesome and good.")
I haven't spent lots of time around drunk people, but I am quite certain even I (after having two strokes) could easily evade or beat the shit out of any drunk people who threatened me.
There are plenty of legitimate reasons to be out after midnight. Once, my shift was laid off. It was graveyard shift. When they told us, they kept us in a meeting for an hour, just long enough for me to barely miss the last bus home. I was thirty miles away from home. But then, I'm sure you will come up with a self righteous reason why it was my fault.
I have lived in Idaho and Utah for many years, and being out after dark is safe. I have never (nor do I know anyone who has) been the victim of a crime for being out after dark, well except when christain fundamentalists have made false police reports against me.
Making false police reports is a crime. Essentially you are trying to use the police as a proxy to kidnap someone else. Such a crime should carry stiff prison terms, but nobody ever gets prosecuted, probably because criminals like you always make sure you have "reasonable doubt." Unfortunately, apparently police think being a psychotic asshole who hallucinates crimes creates "reasonable doubt."
