shoot them. If I'm being randomly attacked by a stranger then I'm in fear for my life and I will use reasonable force to stop the threat.
That happened to me by some junkie. You don’t really have time to think and you don’t necessarily respond how you think you would. I luckily wasn’t hurt but also wish I had been more aggressive and taught him a better lesson. I did come out on top of the brief struggle at least.
No one knows what they will do in that situation except the handful of brawlers who are used to getting into fights on a regular basis. For the rest of us, it's a learning experience.
I completely agree with this, but would add, that in today's climate, one should take personal responsibility and at least get into a boxing class. Something with real sparring. Aggressive sparring really makes the difference in a random encounter.

Yes, it's important to train yourself to taking punches to the face. Boxing is the best way to do this. If a single punch to the face paralyzes you, then you are fucked.
I used to train boxers. Day One: put them in a proper high guard; hit them in the face/gloves. I can tell pretty what I need to know about how to train you by the way you react to that punch. Best reaction, IMO, is if they step toward you while keeping the guard. That's pretty much the perfect blend of thought under pressure, aggression, and instinct.
That said, there are sometime people who will be better off with just running/retreating. No judgement...that's just how it is.
aggressive sparring
Agree 100%
I’ve had some training in the past, but there was never enough sparring at speed for it to help much in a real life situation. Real fights happen FAST!
I am afraid of catching AIDS from busting my knuckles on nigger noggin so mostly kicking and choking.
I wouldn't be on the streets
Use whatever I have on my person to stop them from hurting me. I have high adrenaline by nature so usually I am always over-reactive when it comes to potential threats.
I'd probably take a punch or two before I realized what was going on. I'm not used to being attacked and not ready for it. After that, I suppose it would depend on the size of the dog in the fight, and the size of the fight in the dog.
Shoot them if I can get my piece out in time.
Id tell my mom on them, she would know what to do.
I can fight but I will avoid it at all costs.
I ve been stupid before. I once was chilling in my car waiting for a friend when a man randomly punched my window while walking away. I jumped off and picked up a fight with two guys which I totally owned (internet tough guy here).
Another time though, we were calling it a night when a sandwich lands near us. Then an orange hits a female friend. It turns out some Paki (Brighton UK) was throwing shit at us. He walked up and maintained eye contact while a friend of mine was in tough guy mode talking rudely to him.
For some reason, he though I was the one that spoke up and he wanted to fight me.
I was like "No sir, no sorry". Literally in full pussy mode.
I could have easily ripped his jaw off and I wanted to so badly, but I didn t know if he had a knife.
It was laughable how much of a pussy I was. "No sir, good night sir. You are right sir. No, I did not say that sir, you are mistaken"
After a long time he walked away, I called the police and followed the guy. He picked up a fight with another guy and I would have jumped in if things had gotten to serious but the other guy had total control. I warned the guy about the police, the police arrived, the guy walked away and we arrested the motherfucker and I spent the night with my friends giving statements.
Then the police sucked his cock and found him a great flat to live in the center of Brighton where can breed his 6 wives and raise his 12 children with a free income of 600 gbp per child and benefits and NHS and all of that welcome immigrants crap.
Throat punch works every time a guy hopped up on drugs or adrenaline can take multiple blows to the face balls or stomach but nobody keeps fighting after a shot to the Adam’s apple
Stop. Drop. And roll.
Call the cops.
