I know a black belt that was being hassled by a homeless man.
Certainly the blackblet could have kicked his ass, but he chose to walk way.
I couldn't believe it and I asked him "why?"
His reply was the he could have used violence but was it worth risking the the small chance of getting cut or stabbed by this homeless guy?
In the end he was right.

You never know what you have when you get in with it with another man.
If someone picked a fight with me and cornered me....and I thought my life was in danger....they would get a plastic shank in the throat. Thats violence that I never want to get to.
Walking away is saying its ok to say those kind of things. Things like that are not ok, and people who say them need to be taught a lesson in life. Simple as that. Im not a violent person, i dont like fighting, but if anything is said about my family they've got a fight weather they like it or not. Family loyalty.
