How To Deal With Threatening People in Public - Jocko Willink

I have ban powa.....harhar. I've told that poster what is acceptable for this thread, my thread, and if they raise a stink or continue on, then I remove their dumbass post and ban them.

It's really very simple....and I most rarely back down to anyone.

I am an equal opportunity baner....

This guy is awesome and happens to be presenting virtually at my company this week!

Lol Hahahahah(inhale)hahahahaha outstanding!
I am an equal opportunity HAMMER....
There, fixed it for ya.

Good vid, I'll add some stuff:

Use whatever mad skills you have.

Humor:
Q: Where the fuck you think your going?
A: Well I'm a redneck so obviously I'm going home to fuck my cousin.
The nastier the better. Be a little self-deprecating.
Q: You think your funny?
A: My cousin thinks so. She laughs every time I get undressed.

Speed:
Good at running? Then run. Pro-tip, big strong guys are usually crappy at running. If they are a bunch of skinny hyenas and one is breaking away from the pack, lay him out after the first corner. They will all slow down and be more cautious and stick together so you can burn off into the distance while they have to carefully navigate every turn.

Shit:
Shit yourself. No one wants to fight a guy and roll around on the floor with him if that guy just shit himself.

Pick your terrain:
Big crowd of punks? Not so tough in a narrow hallway or doorway where it's first come, first served.

Take a lickin'
Drop right away, then play knocked out after the first couple kicks. Go to your happy place. Avoid scream or shout in pain, they will happily continue whacking on you.
Turtle first, then collapse body with head roll to the side.

Lovey, it's not the first time someone has referred to me in that way, lol.

I was at my THIRD interview for a position in a methadone clinic as an addictions counselor, this one was with all my peers, my to-become fellow counselors. It was a nearly three hour interview (brutal).

None of them save for one wanted to hire me because I didn't have any experience with opiates, because I wasn't an addict (they all were in recovery)....they called me a marshmallow during my interview....harhar, the meanies. Heh, I talked to them about compassion.

None of them wanted me, save for one, my mentor. He told them, after I was released back into the wild , that he wanted me hired, that they were underestimating me, and that I carried a heavy hammer in my pocket book.

I've always enjoyed being underestimated....but that wasn't a good day for it. Fortunately, I had an "angel in the wings."


But really, deep down inside, I'm a softie....and I love to love.


Just don't fuck with me.....

First GLP video I’ve watched in its entirety- 6 years of lyrking

I bet he's in high demand right now....

........


I'm tellin' ya, if we all just started laughing - there's plenty of funny stuff about Humanity, just look at our hoohas - then all the crap would just dissolve.


Is that too much to ask, to laugh instead of fight?.....

Wow, you never know who you are going to meet on this crazy site! Looks like I got lucky again, lol so nice to make your aquaintance, the pleasure is mine!

Well, that's awesome. I'm happy there was nothing in it to pollute your noggin'!....

That's fine..you can listen to these idiots tell you what to do.

Or you can see how it's done.

I already practice that and honed awareness to an art form!

He's right you know!

I recon that shit!

That's a big no neck dude!

I used one of these techniques several years ago. I was walking to the corner store about 1/2 block away in viewing distance from my apartment at that time. As I neared the store parking area, two blacks - one of them large - stepped out of their vehicle and in my direction.

Got that hair standing up feeling, that gut wrench feeling, because their motion in my direction was menacing. Being 5 ft. tall and late 50's, I must have looked vulnerable.
Running wasn't really an option.
I had taken tai chi which isn't a defensive martial art - but what the hell - use it, right? I went into a defensive martial art pose and stared right at both of them. They backed away and went into the store.

Instead of me backing away, I went into the store and alerted the guy behind the counter to watch them. They avoided me, didn't approach the counter, and left.
The next day on the news was a report that the same guys had assaulted and robbed an older woman at a store nearby.

Sometimes just looking like you're a bad ass with skills is all it takes.

Hmmmm, I didn't even watch but less than a minute of that.


You do understand what I'm trying to promote here is staying away from "street fighting," right?


Just stay the hell away from the thugs, m'kay?


My gawd, it only takes two brain cells rubbing together to know it's not a good idea to go into dicey situations.


....Got Brains?

I learned in the street. I also learned discipline from the military. I can handle myself. I'm sure there are many here who can.

If it teaches someone situational awareness it's good. I'm not going to knock it. Some people have no idea.

I'm going to find out if there are any self defense classes in my area....martial arts is out of my body's wheelhouse, but I can learn to defend myself like a pro.

I've always wanted to learn Tai Chi, but there are no classes for that in my town. I've looked. I've tried the discs that are supposed to show one, but...well, I suppose I'm a Tai Chi dunce. Derp.

Stay alert, stay alive!

Zen and the art of Ghetto fighting! Better not bring yo kids!

After society breaks down and the caravans are formed, you will need to know how to defend yourself.

At this point, a lot of residential ammo will be used up so we will be forced to defend ourselves hand to hand.

You being a female better home to have a strong male by your side. Otherwise, you and your daughters will be raped.

I have to get up early for work, 5 am, so I got head out.


I hope you all enjoy the video, there's a lot to learn in it or to be reminded of....


I did find these two gentlemen to be thoughtful in how they deal with threatening people.


That's what is most important, to be prepared...

My tribe will protect their women!

You have zero idea how close to home base you came there...heh, at least I hope you have no clue, because otherwise you'd be being a real ass.

But please, no concern for me. I will be fine....one way or the other.

I was lucky enough to find classes led by a martial arts master who also taught the tai chi exercise. Try looking on YT. All you need is the basic routine that you see on travel shows used by the Asians - the groups in parks getting their exercise. Fantastic for balance, breathing, and strength.
