Self Defense?

[Jer]

I would rather get asskicked (punching and kicking) and have other guy face criminal+civil action than I kick someone's ass and face both action.

If my family is in danger, it is a different story.

What you seem to forget is that a fight could also end in someone losing their life. What if you start throwing blows and someone pulls a knife or another form of weapon? What happens if he overpowers you and takes your firearm and then kills you and anyone else who dares challenge him? What if you don't have your firearm and he pops you once and you fall and hit the back of your head and die or the same thing in reverse? Don't think this is possible? My wife watched a kid that they used to go out partying with in Lincoln die in this exact fashion. They left a bar at closing and some dude started shit with him. He wasn't a consenting party to a fight so he tried removing himself from the situation and instead the dude chased him down, punched him one time in the face. He fell backwards and struck the back of his head on the sidewalk and never woke up.

This isn't boxing. There are no rules, no referee to make sure things are fair and no agreement to follow specific rules.

Whether you believe it or not every fight is a fight for your life. If you're willing to gamble your life on it then good for you. I'm not and criminal law supports my decision to protect myself with up to and including deadly force. There is nothing cowardly about refusing to be a victim to some meat head or thug who thinks he has something to prove just like there's nothing manly about proving you can fight. It's stupid.

Uhh. What I meant in asskicking as few punch or kick, not a fight.
Ii was saying is maybe few kicks and punch doesn't need to be esclated into a full figjt thatvit is not worth all the trouble.

Is this a joke? Do you really think YOU have control over that in a fight? Isn't getting/giving a few kicks or punches the same thing as a fight? I'm lost at how you seem to think there is different degrees of fighting and that you can administer punches or kicks to someone and then choose to deescalate the situation whenever YOU feel it's time. That shit doesn't fly in the real world son. Again, if this was an organized fight with a referee and rules maybe you could ask that the rules include a safe word or something but it doesn't work that way in the real world.

Watch out for people in wheelcahirs. They will whip your ass with a beater stick and then go out to Chillies with their Mother#@$%ing boyz afterwords.

I agree with Jer. He makes some good points here.

It takes an extra 2 seconds to spell check and proof read your two sentences homeboy. Is English your first language?
