@lozhell man you would get f***ed in court unless your had OJs lawyer.. Thanks for your input

[lozhell]

So wrong and incorrected information, I suggest you read understanding reasonable force by Mark Dawes which covers the use of a preemptive strike. Mark Dawes is the techincal director at the national federation of protection and safety and is one of a few expert witness's on reasonable force to the house of commons. The book is up to date with English law including the corporation manslaughter act.

@lozhell Have you ever worked doors?? Have you any qualification to teach any form of combat?? After you answer these questions reconsider how you will be treated if you do a .. preemptive strike by the police and or judge.. been there done it regardless after any training they say you should know how to deal with it without violence i personally have been prosecuted.

Today society does allow you to use a pre-emptive strike, you can use a pre-emptive strike, protect yourself and others and property,, but reasonable force does apply...so let look at Mark way,,,you cant hit until you have been hit..so we have guy about to carve you up with a blade...now if you hit him first no court in the land would find you guilty....hey but now rewind lets let the guy start slashi ng with the stanley...now your arms are f*cked due to blocking,.

Going over old ground here but look at what your saying it isnt pre-emptive it is defence! Do you understand what the law states as pre-emptive where you live?

Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6!

I'm sure we're all lining up to take legal advice from "faggothater999"

Mark Miller is an idiot to come on here poisoning peoples minds. Yes you can get done if you strike first WITHOUT REASON! However, if somebody is being combative towards you then you CAN LEGALLY strike first. It happened to me in March 2010. A guy threaten to take my head off and got in my face, so I struck him with my elbow and actually caused quite a lot of damage. I got arrested but did not end up getting prosecuted.

[FHSmithJR]

The possibility of prosecution is always present. Obviously, you don't go around preemptively striking people that are not intending you harm. I would rather risk prosecution for defending myself than death from not. As a teenager in the military, I was mugged twice. Waking up in the hospital is bad, not waking up is worse.

@Jackosbilly spitting, pointing your finger into there chest or bumping up against them are all forms of assault, (in the US) get them to do that to you first them knock them the fuck out in self defense.

@lozhell first person i've seen in ages who said they were educated in Tradition JJ rather than Brazillian, a shock to my system ha ha

Please can you define "pre-emptive strike"?

It is within the bounds of the legal definition of reasonable force to strike someone before they hit or attempt to hit you. The circumstances are key as is the type and frequency of hits you get in before he does. You need to have a reasonable fear of being assaulted in order to hit first. Of course, what you consider to be reasonable and what a jury does some 9 or 12 months later, may be different. BUT hitting first can be legally reasonable.

[CNCTEMATIC]

View from a lawyer: there is a panopoly of situations in which striking a person before you have been struck would be reasonable force in self defence. You may have a narrower conception of what constitutes a "pre-emptive strike", but the absolute ban stated in your video is too broad. peace
