On fights outside nightclubs.*

Against all my better judgement, I appear to have heroic instincts. I would much rather have cowardly, or even better, sensible instincts.

^{*Someone got put in hospital by a gang of townies. Upon hearing about this, I promptly went charging off to confront them. The sensible thing to do would have been to grab a camera phone and try to get pictures of them, but I didn't think of this until the adrenaline wore off about 20 minutes later when the stupidity of dashing off towards a gang who'd already decked one person occurred to me.}

my instinct is to find some bloke to defend me.
In this case I ran and found Dave

My instinct would probably be attempt to fight my way out of it if I were really threatened.
Possibly clobbering them with my SLR instead of taking pictures with it X_x

I think I would defend myself if I was directly attacked and I think that I would intervene to defend children (my own especially). Other than that my instinct is to get someone to defend me (my instincts aren't stupid - they know I am small and not very hard)

[kittensandsteam.livejournal.com]

I would definitely defend myself when directly attacked.
I'm just hoping not to find myself in such a situation.

Apparently my brother used to hit me and I didn't fight back. My parents were so concerned about how passive I was that they sent me to Judo lessons.
When I was robbed at knife point I just burst into tears and was shaking, I don't know what would have happened if he had gone for me though, maybe I'd have snapped out of it and actually tried to defend myself at that point.

Well you are a pacisfist really.
I'm sure you'd defend yourself if you really had to mind you.

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]

yes, I guess so. I'd definately defend the little un I know that. No way anyone is hurting my mini me.

I'm still not sure that "The hardest man in a goth glub' is a compliment, you know :)

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]

I dunno, admittedly the make up and pvc doesn't look very butch but I reckon a fair few of them were probably a lot harder than they looked...and that Lee, he was hard as nails he was.

It is a compliment, much better than you not being the hardest man in a goth club in any case :p

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

Was Lee the feller without a shirt on?

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]

aye

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he looked like a fighting man.

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]

the minute they went for him he went all ninja. I think he gave as good as he got.

[vulgarcriminal.livejournal.com]

Lee is nails.

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

He looked to be. Significantly more than, say, me.

Sounds like a Morrissey song ;-)
