It's one thing for two people to start a fight with each other, but it's not always like that. Normally it's an uneducated knacker like yourself trying to get what he wants through physical violence because he has no actual justification for his actions.

I don't know about you but if I'm walking down the street I don't really want to have to step over a pool of blood and walk past someone kicking the head off another guy. If they want to fight why don't they **** off and find some place out of the way, or better still why not join a boxing club or something and actually put the aggression to something productive for themselves.

Lots of people don't get involved in street fighting because they want to "get" something, they do it because they think it's fun. There are plenty of people who like to see and participate in fights.
