@WestTennesseeFox starts a side hustle training Bears.

[Orangeslice13]

Mace, nose, throat, nuts and run away

Exactly.
Except never go for the nuts. That’s the first thing the bad guys are looking for. However they never see the eye poke coming.
No pun intended

Thumb to the eye is the first shot.

The best self defense, especially for ladies, is what ever gets you out of the situation. In that regard we taught a lot of judo throws. The thought process being “throw them down and run before they get up” never never never never stand and fight. It was all about getting away.

Seems very smart. My nose might be a little less crooked if I’d taken a class like that 30_something years ago.

The two times I was in that situation

Time 1 - Cast iron skillet to the face. That was it.

Time 2 - Mace to Eyes, elbow to jaw, punch to face, and kick in the nuts for good measure

Absolutely if the opportunity is there but I’d still like it if you we’re running away at some point very early in the confrontation.

Time 1 - I was cornered between wall and stove with abusive stepfather.

Time 2 - I was cornered in a room at a party in college

Both times I needed to fight to get out of the corner before I could run. Both times I broke a bone on the guy's face.

I’m glad you got out of both situations reasonably unharmed

I spent a few hours in jail for the 2nd time. The mace that I used was actually illegal at the time.

That’s stupid.

 

[WestTennesseeFox]

That’s stupid.

That's campus police for you when you defend yourself against the drunk son of millionaire donors.

 

[rocytop2624]

Yes but SCOTUS has set aside the age restrictions in 3 previous cases. That to run and campaign you must be 35 but a grassroots movement that chose to elect someone younger reduces the age required to adulthood (18).

Not sure but I do know you can write in whoever you want. I am going to vote for my son next.

 

[rocytop2624]

That’s stupid.

That's what I said awhile back.

 

[rocytop2624]

Mace, nose, throat, nuts

Poke there eyes our rake them our stabe them with a pen. Just keep a pen or pencile with you. I almost bet you could out run them and yell.

 

[508mikey]

I guess they found her body

 

[WestTennesseeFox]

Found her jogging clothes in a dumpster, horrifying news.

They have found her body.

Was that for the house or senate?

 

[rocytop2624]

They have found her body.

Damn.

 

[WestTennesseeFox]

I guess they found her body

Yeah, I heard about it a couple hours ago; hence the but I didn't want to say out loud until it was reported publicly.

 

[Orangeslice13]

They have found her body.

Give that dude the chair.

 

[rocytop2624]

Give that dude the chair.

He should be raped with a broomstick then cut his Richard off and tie him up and burn him alive.

 

[WestTennesseeFox]

Give that dude the chair.

At some point, Memphis is too dangerous to raise a family.

I am going to have to encourage my grandson, his wife and new baby to get the hell out of this town.

The day before he kidnapped and murdered Eliza, that guy robbed someone at the Malco in Cordova.

I read he stole an employees wallet she left there and spent over $900 on her cards.

Body found during search for abducted Memphis mother Eliza Fletcher, police say

 

[95 Vol Alum]

My sisters are 3&1/3 years younger than me. When they turned 13, some of my “fringe friends” became protective of them. Men and boys who disrespected them would be quietly and gravely threatened with being taken out into the woods, stripped nekkid, and left tied to a tree. Yes, today, you think that the threat rings hollow as it must have then. No, at least three of my friends were quite willing to make good on the threat. It was as troubling as it was reassuring when I left town. I knew my sisters would be looked after, but I didn’t want my friends being prosecuted for their extreme measures.
