Someone told me that while walking down the street and for no apparent
reason a guy punched him in the face, I asked if he fought back, he said no, if
he called the police he said no .

What would you do?

Instinctively. Someone else might call the police while I defend myself.

I'd punch back alright, then call an ambulance to pick up what was left.

I would look the person in the face and calmly say, "It's on." And it would be on. I may be little, but don't act crazy towards me.

What kind of pansy calls the police? what are they going to do? get the skin from the offender's knuckles off of your face and run a DNA test? cops have better things to do (if only they would do them.....) take care of it yourself

First of all, I'm too old for fights. Besides, someone who would do something like that sounds like a possible crack head or meth freak who might go totally psycho on me and pull out a knife or gun. I don't fool around with druggies and crazies.

It's called self defense if you won't defend yourself nobody else is going to.

The only time I have been punched in the face, I was Charge of Quarters in the Army. I merely wrote the incident in the logbook, as I said I would do before I was hit.

Realistically, if the police aren't already there, calling them will not do a thing for you. Given the opportunity, I would try to avoid the confrontation (in the Army, I did not have that opportunity).

20 to 30 years I would have kicked their ass, but now I'm just to old to fight so I call the Cops, besides what says I hate you more than giving someone a police record and possibly screwing their life up?

That cat would be in the pound 5 mins after it attacked my kid. Clearly the kid was crying because the cat had already scratched or bit him.
Sick little video !!

Go to you tube and watch the whole video, the cat was the aggressor, and if that little flea bag had bit me he would have gotten the smack down.
I agree, the person taking that video must be some sort of sadist. I don't think they deserve to have children or animals if they thought this sort of thing was funny.
