I agree, unfortunately you rarely get to choose whether you have to fight or not, just as you don't get to choose against how many
In my experience, a jab is best suited to fend off a first attack. Heck, you can handle one or more adversaries with almost just that. While being at ease with boxing in general and the jab in particular, adding a blade to it renders it as one of the most if not the most devastating alternative to handguns
A particularly efficient and vastly underrated mix is boxing + judo
That being said, there will be a time when .gov pretends to pay the police while cops pretend to do their job. It's coming, it's almost a mathematical certainty at this point.

Yes, but sometimes people get a sense of overconfidence and choose confrontation when they could have escaped the situation. I've seen that with people training stupid things like Aikido/Karate/Taekwondo who never faced an opponent going with full force at them, let alone an armed one.
Yeah again I agree, confrontation needs to be avoided but again it's not always possible
>Aikido/Karate/Taekwondo
Honestly, in that bag, depending on the practitioner of course and the "school", karate has the best going for it. Aikido is bordering on scifi, and taekwondo tends to be too... How could I put that... Too fancy/not rustic/straight to the point enough. When it comes to kicks, your typical mae geri karate kick that looks like anything but fancy shit is actually pretty effective https://youtu.be/pyATeSZXg_g?t=117 you have your shoes IRL
