The reason this topis started is that my neighbor Joe,who uis about 65 now was telling me that many years ago where he lived, the lake was the hang out for everyone. He was dating some girl and her ex was in the crowd at the lake. Joe and this guy began arguing and then it turned physical. Joe said "that guy beat my ass for 2 hours" . He said he he didn't go back to the lake for 3 weeks and when he returned someone came up to him and told him that the guy that had beat him so bad was in the crowd. Joe said he bought a long neck bottle of Budweiser and walked up behind the guy and POW! He said beer and blood flew everywhere. I said "Did you kick his ass Joe?" He said "No, that Son Of A Bltch turned around and beat my ass again" He just told me this story 20 minutes ago and I'm still laughing lmao, that is great

....my logic know thou...is even if you win you loose...the problem you was gighting over is still there...so whats use of seeing who can swing the faster, harder fists...talk it out...but i still have to much pride to totally back down.... people who never act on their feelings only bottle them up for long periods of time until it seriously affects their mental stability. Better to let it rip, get the aggression out, and be done with it. I am high strung though, as anyone on here knows. I don't go looking for trouble, but I hate people who deliberately start trouble, or insult people over the internet. The majority of these people wont do these things in person, or they wouldbe making frequent tips to the er I agree, some people tend to say things on here they would never say in person.

Joking around is one thing, but you can always tell a person who has never gotten a good azz whoopin in their life. They tend to be completely disrespectful of others. I am not condoning violence, but dear lord give some thought to what you say to another person when you are typing. To insult a persons mother, or just flat out calling them a name is a serious sign of disrespect to yourself more than the person you are insulting

I am not usually a fighter... but will defend me and mine!! My last boyfriend thought he'd try man handling me and found his ass on the ground in a hurry. He didnt know that i was trained years ago when I worked with mentally challenged adults, in MANDT. I cant say I won... noone does with abuse. But he surely learned, I wont go down without a fight.

Interesting topic, I do not like to fight, I haven't in a long time, but i do think being in the right has an affect on the outcome. I have whipped a few and had a few whip me, and over all it is stupid and solves nothing. I will do what i have to for friends and family so long as they are in the right. I will tell you this story though.. When i was thirteen (and thats been a while back lol) I was picking on a boy that rode our bus. I got off the bus in his yard, and he beat the crap out of me and i deserved it. I was wrong to pick on him. Bottom line it was my fault. And when my dad found out i got a whipping for it...as it should be. I learned a lesson that day, and it was about being a man. My grandfather told me this... You stand up for what you believe, you fight if you have to, steer clear of it when you can and if you lose, let it be. wise words i think.

My grandfather would tell me "Danny give it up son ya ain't never going to win" lol he was right. Now a days if someone wants to fight you don't know if a gun is going to be used or a knife etc.

If someone tells me they plan to whip me, I am not one to wait and play the defensive role. My Dad taught me to hit first, hit hard and only need to hit once. The advice has always kept me from getting whipped. I was jumped one day by three boys on the way home from school. One of them who was much larger than me beat me up. After that my Dad gave me the previous advice. A few months later that same kid, Jack conspired with his friend Nicki to yank my shorts off during gym class and throw me through the small door naked into the girls side of the gym. I hit Jack like my Dad told me to. I aimed for the back of his head allowing his nose to be the primary target. Jack hit the floor of the gym rather hard and as he regained his senses he uttered lots of threats and curses. (Which over the next two years he never acted on) Nickie stood in disbelief that the school bully had been Kayoed by the class weakling as did the other gym students. From that day forward nobody in my school picked on me. The problem had been severe as was indicated by the improvement in my grades. I went from a C-D F student to an A-B student almost overnight As an adult I had to defend a woman from her wife beater husband. My ex wife had offered to take her to a safe house and we were in their house when he came home unexpectedly. Angry, he went for the rifle in his closet and as he came through the bedroom door I was waiting for him. Grabbing the barrel of the gun I swung it over his head and pinned him with it. Then I propeled him back through his bedroom and plunged us both headfirst into the bathtub where if the gun discharged it would do the least damage. I gave him every peaceful opportunity to let go of the gun before I took it from him with my fists. I really do hate fighting but there was lots of blood that day and none of it was mine. I did walk away with the gun and his wife and 4 kids were taken to the safe house. The County Sherriff's deputy arrived 45 minutes later and asked why I had not just killed him and saved them the trouble. It was a redneck county to be sure! Later on Tom and I became friends and I became sort of a mentor to him. He was thankful I did not let him do something very stupid that night

Now a days if someone wants to fight you don't know if a gun is going to be used or a knife etc. It is sad that you are right on with the last sentence. I think a lot of this is because of the people in charge taking away a normal part of growing up. When I was in school if you got in a fight you went to the principals office, got a swat or two, and went back to class. Now you get expelled, even if you didn't start it and were defending yourself. You cannot take away a persons right to self defence no matter where you are. They even banned playing tag in some schools because it was too violent.

I was talking to my neighbors just now and some how we got on the subject of fighting. I told them that every person that has ever said they were going to beat my ass ....did it. I have never won one single fight in my whole life. I haven't been in a fight in 20 years. Have you ever been in a fight and if so how long ago and who won and do you remember why? Be honest...hell look at my record. I remember causing more damage to the other person, but both of us really lost. Just being that out of control after nearly 2 decades of not getting into any fights with anyone whether I won or not was not exactly a sign of intelligence. Have you noticed that gun and lawyer can be interchanged and mean the same thing?

Last year I walked in a bar with a friend during the Spring Bike rally here in Myrtle Beach. We walk up to 3 guys that my friend knew and he introduces me to them. I start talking about something off the wall and these guys are laughing like hell. Then one of them says "I got to buy you a beer man" When he turned around is when I see the back of his vest says "Hells Angels" all 3 of them were. Damn I'm glad I made those guys laugh
