That is what Zimmerman said

Gee, Greg, I used to think you were one of the few bright right
wingers
in this sea of conservative stupidity, but now I am realizing
you are
just as dimwitted as flajim, psychoscotty, herring, and a few
others in
that crowd of intellectually disableds.

Are you really saying the only way you could deal with this was
to get
in a fist fight?
How would you have dealt with it if this guy was not such an
easy guy
to beat up?

I realize I don't have the frontline combat experience of you
and some
of the other right-wingers here, so perhaps I should've waited
for the
guy to really beat the crap out of that woman. I was not
intending to
trade punches with the fellow. I simply walked over to where they
were
and asked him to stop. He responded by taking a swing at me and he
missed. My reflexes took over and I hit him as hard as i could.
End of
fight. I don't know whether he was easy to beat up or not... I
landed a
Lucky punch.

My point and the same thing I said about Zimmerman is you should
have
never got close enough to him to allow him to take a swing at
you. It
is basic self defense 101. If you were going to try to talk this guy
down, you can do it from 10 feet away, 20 is better.
If your intent was to get in a fight from the beginning, then you
should just go hit the guy. In the end you are not on much firmer
ground is you just provoked the fight

Perhaps you would've stood your ground and shot him. You seem
trigger-happy.

All I ever said about this is you could have been shot, other
than to
point out that if your "lucky punch" turned out to be fatal, you
have
as good a chance of going to jail as if you shot him.

I know a guy who did 7 years in Maryland for a "lucky punch" in what
most people would say was a more justifiable situation
(attempting to
remove an unwelcome person from his home)

I hope you get better soon.

Your depth of knowledge is beyond amazing Greg. Now you are an
expert
on the proper manner in which to come to the aid of a woman and child
being physically abused by a guy.

"Excuse me sir, (from 20 feet away) not to interrupt, but would you
mind
refraining from slapping them around? I have an iPhone here and I
know
how to use it."

Not being a military trained combat warrior like Greg, Herring,
FlaGrim,
et al, I'm not afraid to play my hand. As I have long suspected, they
are heavily armed...pussies.

Hows your "hand" feel today. I'll bey you wished you'd used
your vocabulary to assault the guy instead of your mighty fist. ;-)

I am sure the love birds had kissed and made up before Harry even saw
his first doctor.
Of all the things I might be tempted to intervene in, a domestic
dispute would be the last one and I certainly would not get in a fight
over it. I didn't always feel that way but after being neck deep in a
bunch of them, a lot of times involving the same couples, I am not
really that interested in kicking that tar baby.
I lived in a white trash and black folks apartment building (Dennis
Grove in PG county) for 4 years and I have seen plenty.

I can understand your feelings although you have absolutely no idea how
the couple (assuming they were a couple) resolved or didn't resolve the
issue in Harry's encounter.

Thinking about it though, it might have been better if Harry had asked
the woman if she was in danger or needed assistance before addressing
the guy. Then again, I wasn't there and all you can do is speculate on
what the fluid situation was.

This is all a fragment of Harry,s figmintation. sic'

Shhhhh, it's funny watching them invent the story as they go along... :)
