DragonSinger Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Nope. The only time I ever used a move from a martial arts film was an armlock that I did unconsciously because my body was in panic mode. It was a fight with a guy twice my size because I was being lippy, and my brain was like, hurry and do something or you can't talk shit to everybody anymore. Then my body pulled that armlock from whatever movie I watched repeatedly during that month and the guy was on the floor crying. Still didn't think I was a martial arts master because after trying out the armlock with a friend so I consciously knew how to do it, I learned that it's absolutely useless if the other person tenses up in any way. Nowadays, wanting to duke it out with someone is just too much work. Using whatever weapon is available is a way better option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KimopoBotar Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I just carry mace. I've had a lot of almost fights in my line of work, but have successfully avoided actually getting in them. Some unconscious part of me reacts to potential violence by trying to deescalate or intimidate. Which is where mace comes in. People tend to think twice when they see mace. Used to just have a big fixed blade drywall knife clipped to my belt. That helped too. No idea if i could pull off sweet moves like ninja kid there. More than likely I'd just do the "big white boy" thing and tackle em at the waist or legs. Or black out with rage and wake up next to a pulp that used to be a skull. I bottle up a lot of stuff.

I mean I'm 6 feet tall....My sister is just shy of 5.....We sparred during Christmas dinner and I was trying to mimic her Taekwondo.....Every time I took a foot off the ground, she implemented judo....She tipped me over with no effort.....I mean she's a black belt in 3 disciplines....I learned to box because I'm funny and needed to back that up with something because some people don't have a sense of humor.....Anyway, it was this Edited October 30, 2018 by Buddyroe360 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to say probably a little more than half the time it was, but I'd like to add that most homeless folks are decent. Only the real junkies were the problematic ones. In fact, 90% of the time it was junkies, homeless or not. I actually got the mace because an apparently not homeless by still tweaked out junkie tried to get me to fight with him. The rest were just macho type dudes who can't handle being told what to do. Most of them fairly well off and white. The retarded part is that i always explained rules politely unless it was an egregious and obvious desire to cut in line. Some kermit the frog built idiot wanted to fight over me not legally being able to buy more than 50$ of product from a vehicle with out of state plates. He got in my face and i told him to be careful. He wanted to throw down, but i pulled out my mace, and kindly instructed him to return to his vehicle in order to avoid broken legs. He decided to comply. That's just how it goes in recycling. People don't respect the workers and we're often alone or at sites with only two people. It's risky, but I've managed to avoid any fights.
