Really scared, what should I do? - Page 3

Yeah well anyway. I sorta made myself out to be a weakling. I'm really not, but I only fight in self defense. The reason I came here, was that he was gonna get 5 of his mates, and really, one guy on five isnt very good odds.

Ever hear of the police? Their job is to make the place safe. Stop crime, and prevent crime. If you think something will happen, alert the police. Have a cop swing around there about the time you get home from school and get after the kids.

No security guards at school? Easier to get than police.

Oh, and I bet everyone telling you to fight him and "kick him in the family jewels" wouldn't do it themselves.

No, I would talk home with a shotgun and a shovel

Hahaha... Maybe at your school. But at my school, the security guards do jack $hit. They actually watch the fights, and then break it up after one guy wins. It is quite sad because they get paid for school safety, even though they don't do squat.

Yeah, you know how those Canadian security guards are...

That's how a lot of them ae trained. I can see why though, if the fight isn't over, they're more likely to keep going and someone will get hurt.

At my school, the biggest guy there was put in a neck brace after breaking up a fight. And one of the female teachers had gotten elbowed in the chest, and got a broken rip which went back and punctured her lung.

Beat the crap out of him, I'd have done it there and then (and said I was acting in self defence). If you dont like that idea, kick him in the nuts and run like the wind.

02-01-2002, 08:04 AM

And what is he suppose to do the next day? Just keep kicking him in the nuts?

Angrist · 02-01-2002, 08:27 AM

No use fighting him if he's going to get his friends.

Ric · 02-01-2002, 08:36 AM

Have you got a big brother. (Or violent big sister) or a tough cousin or something.

Ok the best thing to do is ask the guy what the problem is, if he starts acting violently go tell a teacher (member of the Faculty as you call them) who you know/like and will do something about it. If you are really that worried tell your parents aswell.

Well,If you have a few friends that can hurt someone,or friends that look tough,have them stay near you. Just so that you have some protection,or company on our walk home so they wont jump you. good luck........

Angrist · 02-02-2002, 03:54 AM

I have 2 karatekas as friends

But like Xantar said, they don't like to fight on the street.

Listen Grim, you did anything but make yourself out to be a weakling. You were in a tight situation and you didn't know what to do and you came here looking for an opinion. I'll tell you what I tell my students about bullies because I've had alot of experience with them (The whole Rugby, Hocky, and Soccer team was after me after they found out I was a black belt in grade 9. Oh, and a very large group of Italians

).

Well anyhow, Xantar couldn't be more right. It's all percieved in how calm you are... it's not really something you can fake though as your emotion does shine through your eyes. As he's talking to you, look at his eyes... don't stare hime down, don't try to look tough, just respect what he's saying. While doing this, try to take note of his stance, where are his legs, his hands, is his head lowered ( headbutts anyone? ), look for bulges in his pockets. Most importantly, try to talk your way out first, fight your way out last.

Don't speak to him as if you are a robot (monotone), just speak as you would to a family member. Ask what the cause of the problem is. If he's unwilling to tell you, and he starts trash talking... keep one foot behind you and slowly turn your body to the side to make yourself less of a target. Just be ready to move out of the way. My advice is to never actually hit him as that would leave bruises and such, leaving you prone to assault charges. Shadow Fox's recommendation of the palm-heel strike to the throat is beautiful as it's rare that will leave a mark.

If he threatens to bring friends, you have to make him regret saying that. If you don't get the chance to and you find yourself in one of these five on one situations, and you know there's no way out think of this. You are probably going down, take out the guy who started it all, and the others will more than likely back off. Show them that even in such low odds, you don't give a ****. You'll earn some of their respect, and thats all you need. If one guy turns to your side, he'll stop the others, trust me. Just take out the original weed.

My incident with the Italians was a follows. This young fellow named Corrado wanted to test me (now I don't know what was going through his mind as I had just finished taking down a 6'7" Rugby player, who by the way ended up being a very close friend of mine after the incident), and as I was walking to one of my classes one day, I felt someone push me. I turned and saw him. I asked what he did that for? He said because he felt like it, and I said At least have the decency to let me face you first. He just looked at me with this puzzeled look as if he didn't understand why I wasn't scared or something. He came to push me again and I let his hands touch my chest, barred his hands to me with my forearm, and turned. I threw him smack dab into the lockers, and I saw he was winded. I heard my friend say "Oh ****". I dropped my bag, and wrapped my thumb and index finder around his laranx, and squeezed. I looked to the side and saw all of his friends looking at me. All of them. I stared into his eyes with a really cold look and asked if it was over... and he noded. I let go, grabbed my bag and walked away. I heard him scream that I better watch my back... I didn't answer back, I knew I didn't have to.

From then on, neither him nor his friends ever bothered me again. Well enough about me.

Yadda..Yadda..Yadda....

Interesting thread to say the less..Can't say I agree with many people here..Well my views are...

Weapons are a very dumb move...I don't know if your school is like mines but you can get ccaught before you use the weapon.. which automatically is a crime and you would be arrested...I seen some kid get arrested for having a butter knife on him....

So even if you thought about it..You would most likely get caught before.. and if not and you use it...Your @$$ would be in big trouble..

Kicking in the groin..Well painful will only anger him more and the fact is it won't stop him from bothering you and he should know how to block it next time him meets up with you.....

With a kid like that it doesn't sound like fighting will help you much either.. I mean you...
a)Fight and win..He will find a way to get revenge
b)You fight and lose... He will continue to pick on you because he is stronger

I personally can't offer you the bext advice here...I don't think you have my same situation.. Sometimes being black and tall has it's perks

So um well try to avoid him and see if you can get your friend to talk to him
