This is not military combat it is urban warfare and I have had more
than my share of getting in the middle of wife/girlfriend spats
with
their abusive partner. It is usually an unrewarding encounter
because
they seldom change anything. I have been in physical encounters but
simply talking it out works out better for everyone involved.
As I have long suspected, they
are heavily armed...pussies.
You seem to be more heavily armed than anyone else here.
Greg, no offense, but you seem to think you are the only person on
the
planet who has any experience with violence, police, lawyers,
lawsuits
or domestic spats.
I have had more than my share of experience but I am older and wiser
now. I am also not so insecure that I can't admit it.
Why is the idea of NOT starting a fist fight being seen as wrong
here?
You keep saying we are not in the 1800s but you support vigilantes.
The discussion was about the action Harry took when coming upon a guy
physically abusing a woman and a child.
For the 5th or 6th time ... according to Harry's account he did *not*
start a fist fight. He approached the guy and asked him to stop. The
guy took a swing at Harry. Harry swung back.
I don't call that "starting" a fist fight.
He did strike the first blow on the boney little guy.
sigh
In fact, the boney little guy never even landed a punch.
Come on. Are you telling me that if someone takes a swing at you and
misses, you'd just stand there like a doofus until he connected?
It's called self defense.
It depends. The little fella might have been intimidated by the size and
girth of Krause. Krause was obviously invading his space. The little guy
was probably analyzing his fight or flight options and decided that his
first move was to strike out at the large fat man who was invading his
space. The large fat man mustered all of his strength to swing at the
little guy and struck him god knows where, breaking several bones in his
wrist? hand? arm? No mention was made of what happened after, other than
Krause was rushed to the hospital in severe pain.
If you analyze Harry's story you'll realize it's like Swiss cheese.
You must be bored to be involving yourself in this nonsense.
