I learned how to fight the old fashioned way. scrapping. where its a race against time to put the other guy down before he puts you down, because you are the only thing standing between them and what they want. but ive been in a couple fights where I had to stop my opponent because they were out of their minds. I couldn't bring myself to hurt them and add to their already massive list of problems. in those situations I walked away pretty banged up. any recommendations on groups, activities, martial arts, or philosophies that can help me in this? over the top violence is all ive known when it comes to such things. there has got to be a middle ground.
