If you are picturing a 7 foot tall mass of muscles armed with a shotgun, you might be setting yourself up for a colossal failure. Please watch the whole video:
It is not the size of the dog in a fight but the size of the fight in the dog. This video also tell us that there is no moral boundaries that hold down a predator but only what they want to do and makes them feel good.
“But she is just a petite woman and I am a big man. I can kick her ass five ways from Sunday!” Well, first I know this blog is read by women, so the video will be illustrative, but I want to point out that if instead of pure fists, that Petite Predator were to attack you Mr. Big & Tall with a knife, she would probably get some 10 stab wounds before you realize you were dealing with something else than Tinkerbell.
You cannot predict what your attacker will look like, nor afford to ignore the potential for danger just because they can be initially perceived as less dangerous because of their size.
I know that in this era of political correctness and having to watch what you say and write, the following quote is not the best, but it does reflect a position we must take:
Approach everyone with smile in your face and murder in your heart.
Attributed to Delf. A. Bryce. FBI Agent.
Varmints. Deal with them accordingly.
Future resident of the state prison system.
I’m not a big fan of “murder in your heart”, so I prefer this quote: “Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet.” Gen. James Mattis, USMC
In college I knew a petite, 5′ champion kick boxer.
I would have shot everyone of them dead. There would have been no witnesses and I would have walked away scot-free.
We are out here.
They have NO compunction about trying their damnest to kill you. Why should we not return the favor?
Good god that scenario scares the living daylights out of me, I have kids near-ish those ages; that could just as well be my oldest child with my youngest child at the park.
To make matters worse, being the oldest, she’s a gentle soul who has absolutely no clue how to fight, she has to kid glove just roughhousing for siblings who are younger and slower than her. 🙁
Ten seconds of attempted murder while the cameraman does nothing, the victim walks away, and then the assailant COMES BACK for a second go, and nobody but the kid does anything!?
If I’d been there, I’d at least like to believe she’d have been pinned to the ground by the neck until the police arrived. And if she tried to fight ME…
Well, my hands would already be around her neck.
One of the liveleak channels had the tape fron the beginning. These girls planned the attack and were waiting, camera ready to tape it.
Bad as all that is, I still cannot wrap my mind around the fact that not one of them stopped the attacker after she hit the little boy.
The only brite spot I found is, without any commentary from me, when I showed the video to my 13yr old, who was at least pissed when he saw it. Colorful commentary followed, and for once I let that slide.
Also a reminder that son, who at least has heart in right place, needs more sit awareness lessons so he, in his willingness to help, does not become an additional victim.
Ok, I’m not letting it go.
I have another HUGE problem with this attack.
School is not like when most of us were kids. You started sumthin’ and you were properly trounced for your stupidity. You were picked on, you learned to fight back, or had a buddy willing to dish out a little lesson for you.
Now, we have some utter stupidity called, No Tolerance.
Under NT, even if you are attacked, you are not allowed to defend yourself.
Yes, you read that correctly.
So what we have here folks are an entire generation of future citizens being taught to not fight back.
Well, kids aren’t stupid, and the thugs don’t threathen and abuse you in front of the teachers, so it’s all one kids word against the other.
The good kids are so scared of getting thrown out of school, losing scholarship money, and having ‘disciplinary action’ on their records, they have to make a conscious effort to NOT fight back.
As you can all imagine, what happens to folks when “No matter what, DONT FIGHT BACK” is ingrained into the brain??
