one Percenter,
I’m a peaceful dude as well!, come on!, this was bit more than a year ago. I walk away from trouble ALWAYS. I agree the use of force is last resort.
The thing is, with the story I told, that I was not going to wait for that bastard to start stalking my woman, if you have read books on the subject on how those bastards (stalkers, rapists, etc…) think… And I did not went after him, he crossed my path one good day (sent by God I guess).
I mean, I’m not going to wait for the punch to hit me (the stalker hurts my girlfriend). He had already initiated his attack on me by what he wrote in the e-mail he sent.
It’s just the same as with the guy who steps infront of you and hides a hand under the t-shirt, yeah, maybe he just wanted to scratch his balls, or the urticaria around his belly, but maybe he’s about to draw a weapon. Waiting to find out what it was going to be is not to safe for you, is it? So you better stop the “probable draw” before it takes place, because trying to stop a knife x mph hitting you? come on!, no way, only in the movies and in the step karate class.
It is called Anticipation according to circumstances.
But well, that’s just my thoughts on my way of thinking. I may be wrong, maybe.
