Mac Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 I was a bit shocked at boxing, I thought the "in" thing was ThaiBo. Wish you well in it mate, but watch those boobies, a lot of female boxers at some time have problems with unwelcome lumps. ATB Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebluenose Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 i never punch anyone. id let them hit me and get it over with. therefore you can do them for assault and it doesnt give them an excuse to hit you again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no finer feeling than flooring someone who deserves it. Not that I advocate violence, but it does solve a lot of the worlds ills.

Pat Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 You can actually hit first if you feel you are in danger and can justify it in court That no longer applies Down under eh. You cause any damage in any circumstance you are both criminally & civilly liable. Madness. Yes the crim then becomes the victim of crime & they counter sue/charge etc. Have seen it on mnay occasions now & just shake me head in disbelief. One used to be able to plead hey he hit me first, now it dont matter if you hit back harder, your the villain.??? I.e fella breaks in to pub via managers accom etc, Publican chases after, Crim takes a fall & breaks leg.....Then sues ass out off publican....Crazy, crazy. crazy...!!! Home invader get's his nose broken....Home owner charged with assault..etc etc. What are we coming to ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldfishMemory Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 You cant rely on the courts for anything, theres always some twist of fate which sees the innocent party in trouble too. Its back to playground mentality when a teacher brakes up a fight who gets the blame? Not the kid who started it but the kid who wins it and his crime? Being attacked and being in the fortunate position of being able to defend himself! I hate violence but my view is when threatened with voilence hit hard and fast, put them down and keep them down! You may cross the law but your not another knife statistic and given the opportunity again would you choose a day in court and a fine for first offence or the possibility of bleeding to death in a back alley cos some little prick just cut you up?

Personally I would face up to the concequences of my actions by defending myself "vigerously". ATB Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_webby Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 as long as your not the one recieving the pain there is a very thin line with self defence unless your that farmer and just start blowing peoples heads off with a shot gun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 I think the farmer was right for what he did tbh, hed been broken into many times and the police had done fig all when the incident had been reported so he got some protection. Id have done the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thiis country needs to get tough on criminals, burgalars, yob culture. They all know they can get away with a slapped wrist SHORT SHARP SHOCK. send em all to boot camp I personally belive that all 2 or 3 time offenders should be sent for 1 years national service at least, with the offer of a full time army post at the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L_Blue Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 Yeah have some kind of dirty dozen regiment in Iraq, obviously with the ammount of Yobs around it would be more than a dozen. It pisses me off in the media that sometimes yobs are referred to as 'Hoodies' I have had a hoody for ages and just because a bunch of dickheads are wearing them to hide their faces when they nick stuff doesnt mean that anyone who wears one is a gob s h i t e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
