I am totally non violent(I fought a lil bit when I was younger but nothing big)...if someone fucked with a friend or my girl tho I'd be on em like white on rice(using lame lil remarks like that as I pummel :P)

seriously tho I feel like violence in most cases is fuckin stupid and pointless...but again if someone I loved was in trouble I would resort to it in a flash

I also love competitive violence...boxing ufc pride fc...fucking LOVE that shit...besides thats not really about hurting someone its about skill...those guys have about as much respect as u can have for another human being as well

I think there's a difference between defending yourself and provoking or starting some sort of violence. For instance, the only time I can imagine I would be inclined to use any sort of 'violence' per-se would be if someone was actually physically harming me. Otherwise, if they were just threatening me or taunting me or anything else, I'd try to find a way around a violent resolution.

What about if you're getting paid to do it legally? I would be an unhappy person without fighting. I love muay thai, that and pharmaceutical sciences are my life.

exactly
but what if the taunters are doing things like disturbing your childrens sleep,threatening them infront of you and when you call the law about it,they say,"we cant do nothing unless we catch them in the act or commit a crime" and as soon as the law leaves they start again?

when i tried to approach them and make friends they laughed and told me to 'get fucked,we not to know you' and started harrassing me and my kids 10 times worse?


what if they threw common courtesy/decency out on the street and stepped on it just to make your life a misery?
when it got to the crucnh,two attacked me with a pipe and i fought for my life and one nearly died
the law accused me of being maliciously violent and the judge found me 'not guilty' so to me,i was judged by my accusers peers and did what any reasonable man/father would have done and i'd do it again if i had too

I see where you are coming from, It is a dedication and you have to want to stay away from having that kind of influence in your life, If you are constantly around situations that make you feel like defending your self or look like a "puss" then you should think about what part of that negative stuff is a must have and remove from your life, That way when you have to use your patience to let some one have theirs even if they don't "deserve" it you will have it and feel good for it. People usually feel like an ass and even if they don't show it they know you are right and don't think of you as a "puss" If anything they will feel like the"puss".

believe me,this took 10 years off my life and i wished it had never happened but it did
my kids have been through hell,so has my wife
the guy with the pipe after hitting my back 20 times went to hit her when she ran out screaming and i had to get in between and drag her in,then they made us mediate with them at the court while i was waitng to be judged as if to keep the peace incase i went away to gaol,
it was a living nightmare
we're in the process of trying to move up north to my family now

thats what made me sick about the cops

they would have shot him dead if he had of been hitting his partner with the pipe if you know what i mean,then they put my fams and me through the ringer as if i shouldnt have defended myself

we cant own guns here,our women cant even use mace,its all illegal

also like to mention that watching pride fc/ufc/boxing is very inspiring for me...to watch someone keep fighting when their nose and hand is broken..barely able to stand from taking numerous blows...to never give up even when in horrible physical pain and risking possible brain damage or maybe even their life...to keep fighting till the end and never be satisfied coming in 2nd...when I watch guys able to do that it gives me great hope that I will be able to overcome the battles I face

I have sooo much respect for competitive fighters...there is no other sport that even compares imo

This is pretty much how I live day to day... at first it took a little work, but its not really that hard :shrug:

In response to some of the other posts... It doesn't mean that you sit in a corner and cower if someone makes an attack against you... there's a difference between being the agressor as opposed to defending yourself...

Theres a phenomenon in Britain known as football Casuals.These people have good jobs,families, etc,but every Satarday they go and fight with whoever their team draws.Its all arranged on mobile phones to try to keep ahead of Dibble.Anyways, they kick the shit out of each other,and put the results on the web.Whats weird,is they all sit down and have a drink, and a laugh about it later, even tho some of them lose eyes/get scarred etc. :confused:Inanswer to the question,i always try to use violence as sparingly as possible. :cool:
