re: Class of 2019 Recruiting MEGATHREAD: That's a Wrap Edition

So far it sounds like bar fights are between our literal "fighting" men and women of the armed forces and country boys from Chilton and Dale counties looking for an old fashion dustup or hullabaloo. Due to my extensive viewership of Gangland I know to add 1% Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs. And of course a sprinkle of frat boy.

Seriously though my father and brother are both ex-military. I'm so getting a bar fight number from them next time we talk.

I’m a product of the 80s and 90s I thought it was a right of passage to get into a fight drunk.

Me too but I’ve watched Road House more times than I’ve been in fights.

I wonder what TideSaint's barfight stats look like?

Damnit.

In my defense, the 3-4 that I've had the unfortunate experience with have been defending people who couldn't (or wouldn't) defend themselves either out of fear or incapacitation.

I hate seeing people being bullied and I act accordingly whenever I come across it.

It also didn't help that I have 2 younger brothers my father told me to always take up for.

That was a long time ago though.


















Now I beat up little Korean bullies in the schoolyard.

I now honestly believe that Bar Fighting Strategy should be incorporated into Ground Fighting Technique during Basic Training. I feel it is essential to the protection of this country.

Yeah mine was a generalization About the majority of kids who are normal functioning members of society without abuse or psychiatric issues but from experience with two boys one who struggles with social aspects he is paralyzed by the school’s policies. He is a target and always has been. He is viewed as the weak link. He fought back was put in out of school suspension twice in a three month period. Decided he would just take it from now on. Tells the teachers about the constant teasing and bullying. Teachers tell him to just leave it alone or I’m tired of hearing about it. He gets punched at a football game because he accidentally bumped a kid in front of him with his instrument (tuba). I use this as an opportunity to bring him to the school let him voice the incident to his principal. He still gets written up. Guess what that’s zero tolerance. He does not trust the school or it’s facukty. The boy goes to school everyday avoids as many students as he can to avoid the teasing when he can’t he just doesn’t say anything because it won’t matter. So going into this school year I’ve told him I’m not there to help you, the teachers and principals won’t listen to me after numerous meetings that I’ve requested so the new rule is hit him until he cries or a teacher pulls you off. Make it painful enough that he doesn’t want to do it again. This is a direct result of the school failing him. They don’t want to fix the problem just have it vanish like a fart in the wind. If they won’t allow kids to defend themselves then they damn better start protecting them.

Coming in late on this.

I've been in a fight at a bar, but we were all there for a show and I'm not sure how drunk the crowd was. Me, my friend, the other guy and his friend were all sober but it was in a bar so I'm gonna claim it.


The zero tolerance policy in schools is absurd, and as a kid, forced me into mouch more dangerous situations. Firstly, kids need to know how to stand up for themselves and have some experience with physical conflict because there is a decent chance they'll be in a confrontation at some point in their lives. This stuff has to happen when we're kids, before we can really hurt people.

Secondly, zero tolerance forced me to fight off campus. If a kid was fricking with me, I couldn't do anything because if I got suspended, my pops would beat the shite out of me, so I had to schedule fights behind a gas station near school but out of its controlled in environment. We were much more likely to get hurt,jumped ect. Extremely risky.

If schools would look at fights on a case by case basis, they'd be able to contain more of them in a safe environment that will probably break the fight up after 10 seconds any way.
