What a complete mischaracterization of what I typed.
The guy is a pussy for not fighting back, winning or losing doesn't matter not fighting back does.
Some old people and some women don't fight back but for a male in the prime of his life to cover up and cower is shameful.
He probably had a different goal that you, I bet his goal was to minimize dmg to face, neck and vital organs and I think he did quite well. The altercation lasted a few seconds and he guessed right that the hoodlums was not there to maul him. He came out unfazed in a 3 vs 1 fight. That is not what I consider being a pussy.
Also the 3 men were in their prime not him. He looked middle age, a bit out of shape and out of his elements. He did just fine if you asked me. Watch a video of those lion vs a horde of hyena fights and you will see the same sort of defense at play. The lions put its tail between its legs and crouches to the ground to covered his soft belly. He does this while looking for an escape route. This poor man did the human version of that and you call him a pussy?
That is what I have a problem with. this is real life not the $#@!ing movies where 1 man can take out a group of people attacking one at a time
So is this actually a question about the NAP's twin, the JAP(Justified Aggression Principle)?

If you wanted some sort of Ideological purity, you'll get none of that from me.

Sure it's real life. Head over to Youtube and type in "old man beats up young punks." Those videos are "not the $#@!ing movies." They are real (old) men not putting up with bull$#@!. But since you mentioned movies and lions see what you can take away from this when you compare it to some of those movies.
The older man didn't want trouble. The young punks pushed. And the old man ended up beating their ass. THAT's called "not being a pussy." I won't let the government enforcers step on my neck. And they have a helluva lot more weight. I'd be damned if I would let some young punks.

Do you really want to start a dueling videos thread?

Anytime you get into a fight with strangers you have no idea what happens next. You might get lucky and the three punks you seek to take out can't fight at all. Or....maybe they can fight just enough to F you up. You can risk whatever you want. But I wouldn't risk anything based on someone else's YouTube fight. Anyway, post away. I love good street fight videos especially when the underdog wins.

[QUOTE=jmdrake;5826839] I don't dispute that anytime you get into a fight with strangers you have no idea what happens next. What I risk is that the punks might go away emboldened if I choose not to stand my ground and pick on someone less capable. Possibly causing far worse harm. I'm not gonna take that risk.
This guy made a few big mistakes. First he let his emotions get the best of him. Second, he took his opponents for granted. He thought he was the cock of the walk. Third, he got jumped by the second guy in.
Billy Badass in the video there thought because he "knew" how to fight that he could handle a couple of punks. I hope he didn't end up dead because of it, he took a couple of solid kicks to the skull.
My point was that once an area becomes crowded enough, there's no effective way to insure self-defense, as people by necessity will be close enough to hit you out of nowhere before you can act, and it's way too easy to get cornered, as this incident highlighted in this thread demonstrates. As soon as population density is high enough that total strangers can get close enough to sucker punch you, that kind of sudden, no-warning ambush attack has no defense.

I don't think this is really an example of no-warning, though. Perhaps there was no explicit declaration of intention, but I think there were probably an ample amount of red flags leading up to the physical violence. Evidently there were enough to prompt a man in the back of the train car to begin recording the event, in fact.
Sure, situations may arise where initiations of violence are almost entirely random, and totally without warning, and unavoidable. But I suspect, relatively speaking, these are a vast minority. Most physical violence tends to be an escalation from some other contentious situation.
Radical in the sense of being in total, root-and-branch opposition to the existing political system and to the State itself. Radical in the sense of having integrated intellectual opposition to the State with a gut hatred of its pervasive and organized system of crime and injustice. Radical in the sense of a deep commitment to the spirit of liberty and anti-statism that integrates reason and emotion, heart and soul. - M. Rothbard
Yea, I went to youtube and I saw a ton of videos of old man in bus beating retarded middle aged man, and a few other old man beat young guy in sparing boxing match. What does it say that I found more unique videos of "Man hit by lightning caught on video" than "old man beats young man"?
The scenario in the OP is 3 fit, young, agile, street fighter type vs lone middle aged, slightly out of shape man. In one case, you only need to land 1 lucky punch on one person, in the OP scenario, you basically have to land 3 punches. There is really no point in fighting back, add in the element of surprise and I don't see how he achieves anything from trying to fight back.
But you countered my post about real life being different from hollywood films by posting a video of the movie "second hand lions". Not saying that its impossible to knock them all out like the old man in the bus did but the odds are not in his favor.
