How could anyone be this mean
I have stated in a different thread that I would not throw the first punch in a fight. I will make an exception for the kind of low life scum that torture animals for fun. Most disgusting people.
Not necessarily towards you, but for any youth that read your post->try to ignore, talk your way out of conflict (IF possible) and walk away if possible (“When all lesser means have failed or cannot be reasonably employed”-{part of the definition of when to use deadly force}), BUT BUT BUT!, don’t ever let them strike first.
this coming from someone that stood up for several friends at age 17 and let the younger, much larger bully get the first punch. Huge life-lesson mistake. He put my nose under my eyeball. I could not see anything but red for 2 eternal minutes of a brutal fight. My nose is still crooked. He quit fighting because I was past the point of fear, or self preservation. I wasn’t going to quit. (Although I put my knee through his forehead and it did not phase him.)
People, if you HAVE to fight, there isn’t any honor anymore (unless among friends and I simply don’t understand that mentality) so don’t fight fair or strike second.
fight for a good reason, fight to win, fight dirty if necessary. There is little logic in mercy when pressed to conflict and beyond confrontation.
