Now i agree with his having a go , and pointing out to people you are entitled to use self defence to defend yourself (not sadly as he believes to defend others thats a differnet matter ).

But not on the decline of capital punishment in schools for lack of discipline (anyone of my generation wasnt caned for instance !!!).

However as right minded people do we believe its ok to have a pop at those who assult and attack others ?? Should we all learn martial arts to combat the rising knife attackers ???

Discuss :D

it's a difficult one, and a situation i've not really found myself in... although i've seen a fair few people getting their heads kicked in, and i don't think i would ever go over and get involved. if it was a woman, or a family member or mate then i would hope i would... but who knows, both adrenalin and fear can do funny things

Hmmm, like Jon says if it was a loved one, a mate then I'd imagine I'd see red and nothing would stop me - a stranger however..... I dunno. Like to think I would.

Girl, or kid of either gender, get the hell out of my way so I can beat the snot out of him. Guy, I may leave. Depends if I like him or not, or if I think he can handle himself.

think the problem with society these days is more people would prefer to get some footage for youtube than actually try to help anyone

Think people are feared of getting arrested themselves, or in the culture at the moment is being carrying knives
