  • The other day, a man stole my parking spot, I arrived first. I hunked at him, he showed me the finger. I hunked again, he got out of his car signaling me that he would come at me if I kept going. I just found another spot. After that, I felt humiliated. People laughed at me and said I'm a coward. I felt ashamed of mysefl for many weeks. Today, I know I made the right decision.

  • I love his charming look. Il'd want that every teachers be as him. And of course, his tips are good.

  • Just because u hit first doesnt mean that u nessicarly will win. Some kid started punching and kicking me. Then with 1 blow to the head, I knocked him out. So it is actually up to the fight. I was weaponless he had weapons, the person that knows how to fight and take pain Is the one who wins, not always the person that punches first, even at a high rate.

  • @EdGlaze I've been jumped many many times, I've lost maybe one of em'. Dealing with multiple attackers is much easier than people think. They see their outnumbered and they lose confidence. That's the number one mistake. Number two, is they focus too much on one person, you can't sit there with tunnel vision when there's 4 more people surrounding you. Avoid those two things, and you should be good.

  • Conflict Avoidance 101, which probably coulda summed this up faster, Pay Attention. Be aware of how many attackers, what they have, and where you are. If fighting multiple people, never focus on one person. And if someone is making fun of you, don't walk away, you have to let them know they can't walk on you. If you show them they can, they will. It doesn't have to result in violence, but it shouldn't result in getting pushed around. Show them you don't take shit, they'll leave you alone.

  • i always do this at school... but it sucks... cause they make fun of me the whole year humiliating me allot, then i punch one of them and ofc i am the bad guy... really fuck the system, it sucks

  • Conflict Avoidan 

  • The police will likely not arrive in time

    Under duress or threat it's okay to lie

    View your attacker so you can provide a good description later

    Witnesses may quickly leave so ask for their statements or help

    eXpect that sometimes you will be robbed or assaulted

    Your priority is to survive

    Zero is usually your chance of excaping multiple attackers

  • Once your opponent no longer has the ability to fight, you must stop your attack, but do not let your guard down.

    Preparation, anticipation and training all contribute to a more effective defensive capability

    Quickly decide and act

    Recognize risky situations and avoid them

    Seek cover capable of stopping bullets if escaping armed threats
