When in doubt of victory ... use a glass ashtray (work freakin' wonders)  | See, that's why the liberals took your guns away, PD. Bad boy.

No one can gets killed by being punched on the nose. Anyone who followed self-defence lessons knows that. Quote:

All bullying happens when a group of children see some other student funny or weak. They're not jealous, oh god no. In their eyes the victim is a complete moran and they want to make him/her feel it.
And from my point of view the only way out from such situation is standing up for yourself, aka kicking ass. I'dont know how girls handle this kind of things, but from a 10-16 year old boys' point of view talking is major faggotry. Pueri sunt pueri  | Yeah... I was that kind of student in elementary school. Always getting my ass kicked... I can't blame them, though. When I look at pictures of me back in the day, I would have kicked my own ass.
I was the kind of jerk who really believed what teachers were saying :
"The best way to deal with an aggressor is to talk to him." -- Okay... Before or after they break my jaw bone ?
"If you get aggressed in school, report it to the closest teacher." -- Right. And the following day they're gonna be two on me instead of only one. Big deal !
Anyway... It all stoped in Grade 9 (yeah, I know, I'm rather slow to understand things) when I punched a jerk who was at least 30 pounds heavier than me just for teasing me.
Ahhhhh... The good ol' time...
But now that I can defend myself, I realize that kids have no respect for authority. As a security officer, I saw plenty of kids telling me to f*ck off. Unfortunately, like I'm 22 and they're under 18, I can't kick them out for that. (However, I could do it with an adult.)
Wish I was in the US... Just try to tell a cop to f*ck off in the US... You're gonna go back home with a baseball bat stuck into your @ss. Here, you tell a cop to go f*ck himself and he's gonna answer : "Sure, buddy. But first I'm gonna give you your speed ticket."
Okay... May be I'm exagerating a bit...

Country: | I like your story Maestro. Wish our cops were allrighteous like you portray and able to avoid the "victims" of society. Our cops are entirely hamstrung. Just watch the TV show of the same name. They get abused verbally and physically were in any other third world country they would have shot and high fived over the dead Ahole's body. Oh well.

Country: | If we had guns, it'd be a freakin' bloodbath. All these people who complain about U.S gun laws don't seem to realise that if Britain had the same laws, the British population would be slumping by the day. It'd be like Stalingrad in London and nights out would turn into shoot outs!
It's a culture thing, we're violent people here... there's the ones that start the trouble, and the ones that end it. Chavs start it ... me and my chair, ashtray, chain, pipe or just bare knuckles like to end it.

Country: | I would never start a fight, it is just not my thing. The only time I get violent is when I am forced to defend myself or someone messes with my wife or family like the punk on the bus late at night a few years ago.

Well me and my wife were just minding our own business when the punk in the seat in front of us decided to put his arm down the back of his chair and feel up my wifes skirt.
I grabbed has arm and twisted it throwing him out of the seat and dislocating his shoulder. I immediatly stood up, expecting to defend myself from the other 9 punks (that is when it occured to me that I was outnumbered 9 to 1 and was going to get my ass kicked  ), however the other 9 stood up and had seen what ha happened. They apologized to my wife and then me for the actions of there friend and picked him up and took him off the bus and left.
My wife was pretty shaken up though. I think that is the main reason I try and avoid fights and soforth is because of my family.

Country: | As I said, all you need is a lucky-punch/sucker-punch to send you in a box. When you got a family and think about it, it can makes you reconsider the idea of a fight. |

|  Sounds like you made quick work of him. He sure had nerve. Good job protecting your wife.
It was pretty nice of those Punks to realize that their buddy had done a bad thing. Or else they just weren't in the mood for fighting!
Just saw that drunk to the police officers: "One to one." 
Wrong appeal.
And it's funny how girlfriends will fight for their boyfriends when they are in trouble. I saw some other crime arrest where that happened too.
Well, thanks to the police for keeping order. I probably don't appreciate them enough.
I'll try to remember never to get myself into the miserable position those drunks and other get themselves.
Judgement on earth can swift enough, even before you are dead.

Country: | I am glad they were either mature as they acted or where not into the fighting spirit because it would not have been pretty for me since there were 9 of them.

Well its good that these other nine punks were more mature then they appeared, but atleast here in edmonton those types of outcomes are very few and far beetween.
about 3 or 4 monthes ago, there were four teens on an ETS Bus (Edmonton Transit Service), that were loud and obnoxious, using the worst profanity, the bus driver couldnt get them under control from where he was, and one of the other passengers hollerd out "shut the **** Up" to the four teens, and they all jumped him and they beat him to death it took the police and ambulance 45 minutes to respond, now here in Alberta called the Youth Criminal Act, which basically prevents teens from serving life sentences for even murder in the first degree (these guys only got 5 -7 years)
More recently here in Emonton a younger guy got his throat slashed on one of the busses, i really dont know the whole story yet, but basically it was pretty much the same story as before.
There was also a recent incident where 4 "mallrats" between the ages of 14-16 of West Edmont Mall convinced a young 13 year old girl to leave the mall with them to go to a Rave, but they ended up taking her down to one of the golf courses raping her repeatedly and stabbing her to death, when asked them what was there motive by a prosecuter one of their responses was "she was chosen"
Alot of sick people these days

Country: | Yep... Kids know they can't serve a life sentence when they are under 18. And most of them also know that their criminal record will be reseted to 0 when they hit 18.
So, they acts as @ssholes. Sh*t, I even got plastic bottles and trays threw at me by 15-17 years old kids. Of course, they are not brave enough to do it in your face. It always happen when you are not looking.
Just try to attack me when I can see you coming. I swear that you'll get out of the building in an ambulance with several broken bones... No matter if you are 40 or 15. |
