When is it alright to hit a man?

Oranage2

So as the title suggests when is it alright to actually get into a scuffle?

I havent been in a fight for probably 5 years but every night in town young fellas are knocking the head off each other -

So when is it alright to actually fight somebody else?








Also women hitting woman can be discussed too.

Self defence.

ItsAWindUp

If he insults your honour.

Arnold Layne

When he steals your pint or girlfriend; in that order

Biggins

When its life threatening self defence - same applies to females if they attack with intention to kill.
End of story.

In defence of your live, your families life and well being and in defence of your home would be the first things which comes to my mind.

I'd say there is more stupid reason's for fighting than valid tbh.

Free ball.

2230hrs to 0430hrs from friday to monday only

When they look at you funny.

"When is it alright to kick a man in the balls?" might be a more interesting one.

Or if you think they are lookin at your bird .... also if they disrespect your bird by not looking at her

Iang87

when you're willing to be hit back. Be it male, female or mary harney

hidinginthebush

In self-defense or in the defense of someone else unable to defend themself would be my trigger points. Oh and my dogs, don't hurt my dogs

On occasion a pre-emptive strike maybe required, to offset a potential outbreak of hostilities.

and also when they ignore you after you say "what're you lookin at?".

It gets murky when it's your property that is being.... threatened (?).

If there is someone downstairs stealing your stuff is it better to frighten them off rather than sneak up and smack with a club?

Ain't that the truth.

Dudess

Self defence, whether your attacker is male or female.

Logical Fallacy

Self defence really, or in defence of someone else who is being attacked.

I'd also say when someone is talking **** and they have had two warnings to shut the **** up, the third warning should be a good smack in the chops.

When the blood is up and you have a few pints. its not your fault its the drink.

I was in a chipper in Cavan one night after the niteclub had finished.

There was scuffle behind me, a shout of "you're worse than Hitler" and one guy trys to high kick the other on the head.

So if a guy is worse then Hitler it's ok!

castletownman

When they tea-bag your drum kit. Of course.

Should it escalate to a full-blown fight in your front yard, then it is also okay to use a bike as a weapon.

Just don't say "let's get it on", lest you are accused of attempted rape.

gurramok

In boxing, judo, karate and when being a member of the Dutch national soccer team :P

Whenever someone wants to fight you or is really disrespectful or has done something bad to you. Provided that you're bigger than them.

St.Spodo

When he's wearing chinos and a low-cut t-shirt.

Sneak up and whack em with a club/knife/whatever. No mercy for scumbags robbing your house. Too many horror stories.

Brennaldo II

Just like all other worldwide fights.. when they have a different religion, absolutely infuriates me, I mean how dare they..

HLecter

When you've given fair warning, and said 'queens-bury' rules.

I don't believe violence against anyone is ever a good thing BUT when it comes to defending yourself, your loved ones and your own I think it's understandable within reason.

Accepted protocol in Finglas is to approach your assailant, remove your glove, strike him roughly across the cheek with it and cry out "Have at you Sir!".

Exactly, why give up the element of surprise?
