That kind of thing is horrible, especially when nearly all of the time it's avoidable, and usually just caused by idiots who have had too much to drink. Thanks - it was all just so pointless - he was out with some mates, and just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time - got caught up in a fight between a group of strangers, and got king-hit as he was walking away. I ran into his Dad at Xmas time, and his life is ruined pretty much; it happened 3 years ago, and he's still burning with anger (at everything :( ) It really brings home just how unnecessary that kind of loss is.	nofam (9009)

They came around today to take photos of my back where they threw the objects. (The metal thing was a crowbar type thing). Got a nice gash on my sholder and bruises on my back. Hopefully they got worse. All in all though I consider myself lucky.	rob_on_guitar (4196)

645073	2008-03-03 04:28:00	I know you were only joking, but people can and do take offense when their religious choice is made fun. It is best not even to go there. Fair call, point taken. I should have though of that... :o	wratterus (105)
645074	2008-03-03 04:43:00	I was thinking abut starting the church of Morons, But then figured I'd need a point of difference, otherwise I'd just blend in with all the other churches.	Metla (12)

For a single mum, living alone its a very scary world. I try to plan what I would do if ever my home was broken into, whilst my son and I sleep, but I don't think anyone could ever know what you are capable of until it happens. I know I would not sit there and take abuse or watch a family member, especially my son take it, but I don't know how far I would go to protect them. The thought of killing someone, even in self defense, sickens me, I would prefer they suffered for a very very long time but I don't think the legal system will give me that satisfaction. I believe in self defense, when you absolutely need too, but I think people should be bigger than any attacker by knowing when to stop (and possibly how to afflict very painful injuries) I also think that its best to run, not because killing someone would be bad but because the chances of them killing you is too much of a risk. My son is too important a person to leave motherless. There are many different opinions and each have very good reason behind them. :thumbs: Personally, I think you should have run Rob, ran for your life, you have a partner and a child and the risk of not being there for either of them should light a fire under your feet. I don't know if you think it makes you less of a man but I'm guessing being a dad and having a partner makes you enough of one. :D	never-u-mind (6500)

We had a couple of pints and, as the freind had not shown up we decided to move on. A few seconds before I had noticed a couple of guys who were seated, pointing at us. Just as we finished our drinks I also noticed they had got up and moved towards the stairs. Being the suspicious beggar that I am I warned my friend that there might be trouble. There was. Just round the corner these two prats were waiting for us on the stairs, one standing at the top of the stairs one on the botom step. I very politely asked the one on the bottom step who had some sort of grudge to let us pass. He refused to move and made it plain that I was going to get a good Glasgow kicking. As this was between him and myself I asked assole at the top to let my friend pass and he obliged. I politely asked this plonker 3 more times to let me pass. I took one step forward and he took a swing which missed. Tried it again a couple more times...same result. By this time I was seeing red. His last swing was his last swing. Having learned a few tactics from various sources I got him in a hold which will either incapacitie you in about 30 seconds or kill you in less than a minute. Unfortunately I had lost it and would in all probability have killed him unless my mate had not pulled me off. When plonker 1 recovered we bundled them outside the bar and started to walk home. They then started to fight each other. And who was standing just over the road out of site? Mr Plod. They were both cuffed and stuffed in the paddy wagon within a minute. Someone had obviously phoned the police from the bar. Mr plod just gave us a wink as he was cuffing them and bade us a "goodnight gentlemen". What they would get in the paddy wagon and in the cells would, in those days see them in hospital for a few nights with unseen bruising and perhaps a broken rib or three. That's the way it was in those days and it's a pity we have got ourselves to the stage where we are so fearful of retaliating, when not only your own life but that of your family can be in danger.

The police said they decoy people with one or two then the others will rush from behind. Mainly cripps and bloods they rekon.	rob_on_guitar (4196)

Some ideas for your church: 1) drive-thru baptismal font and car wash 2) progressive charity games . . but not BINGO as it's overdone . . . . instead "jacks are better to open" . 3) bottled "Mother of Eternal Punishment" labeled wines and table liquors on sale in the vestibule . 4) charity bazaars with the priest's last limousine being offered . . . . proceeds going for a NEW limousine . 5) fatted calf BBQ's after services . . with laity produced adult beverages . 6) coin changers and credit card POS units in each pew for the collections Ya gotta offer some paybacks too . Might I suggest Eternal Life and a bonus . The promise of eternal life is easy . . . with some simple rules . 1) Thou shalt not age: (all disobedient persons doing so will suffer untimely and ultimate death) 2) Thou shalt not walk in front of a moving train: (pretty self-explaining) . 3) Thou shalt put thine new tires on the rear of thine vehicle . : (pretty obvious too . )	SurferJoe46 (51)
