LOL.... true. I always learned that a strong offense, "was" the best defense... when it all comes down to it.

My dad taught me that. He would tell me to do something or else. I always chose or else. LOL

I've always heard that if you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.  |

A fair fight only takes place on the Internet. LOL

Charge! get to it and beat as many as you have to. When I was practicing karate....that was a tactic that worked quite well for me! |

I want to say also it that tactic doesn't mean you don't suffer some for the execution of it.
Winning a fight is not always a cut and dried winner unless it is a fight to the death. Then who lives determines the winner. I almost typed wiener since I am so happy I haven't been in a fight like I am talking about here for a long time.

I like being under-estimated, that means the other guy thinks he's going to have it easy, and has no clue about much it's going to hurt when the train hits him.
(Dirt Diver , this is for you.. you should understand this one)..... a guy I know well, and he's a very muscular/strong guy, and a good guy with a good disposition. He was also a good friend. One day walking along a narrow walkway to our bosses office for a meeting ... and he grabs me (in an attempt to muscle me aside), and purely out of normal reaction... I reacted immediately by putting him in a hold (he wouldn't get out of) and had put his head into the wall. My boss was ticked, because he had to get the wall fixed, and he had to go to the nurses to be checked for a concussion. He told me later, he was never doing anything like that to me again, and asked me to show him how I even did it. I felt bad, because I didn't mean to hurt him, ... I didn't do it nearly as hard as I could have.
Some folks don't get that you should get to the point, where there is no "thinking about it" ..... you just "do it". It's automatic.
My granddaughter realized that when one day.... long story I won't bore you with.... when I pushed her aside and was holding her behind me with one arm and my other was on my gun and it was about out of the holster before I stopped. She told me afterwards, I had no clue you were that fast. I was on 'auto-pilot' . She talked about that for the next 3 days, and how NOW she had no doubts..... that I would protect her no matter what.

Read more: cchkansas.freeforums.net/post/new/192#ixzz2RhNm9eZyThanks for the post and the stories. Your comment above is very true and also - as some people don't get that you should get to that point - other people (your boss and friend for example) don't understand that some people that train are at that point where the automatic response just kicks in. I remember in my early days of karate.....I kept wondering "Why do I have to do these techniques over and over and over again?". Once I really understood the answer to that question, the repetition became more fun and more valuable to me. |

I learned at a young age to just fight by reacting without thinking about it.
Had enough fighting to learn to be good at it.
I loved boxing. I was a very good boxer and could beat guys that out weighed me by a bunch.
I never got hurt boxing. On the street is where I learned to deal with the knives and guns.
I actually prefer getting shot to getting stabbed as funny as that may sound.
