I had a little "incident" just right now at the supermarket...
I usually carry my knife but didn't because I thought I was just running to the market.. What a mistake.
I was asking for something, and a punk kid with a bad attitude gave me everything short of the middle finger as far as attitude. I went to talk to a manager, who called him over, and he gave her a threatening attitude, and so when his manager came, he was promptly fired..
What gets me all wrinkled up is not so much the punk kid, but the fact that they always have the "What, you wanna fight?" attitude and stare and gestures.. I weigh about 150lbs, but I am hard pressed to find a punk kid in the super market who's butt I couldn't kick from here to China..
I can defend myself, hand-to-hand, with a knife, gun, pole etc.. I'm fairly proficient in fighting, I think that's why I don't ever want to fight.
Now, if that's true, does that mean all these wanna be punk kids can't fight and that's why they are trying to make up for it with their attitude?
I'm fairly curious what to do when there is a mild threat, but definitely not something to warrants reaction on my part.... ??
I can feel the threat escalation, but it's not so much where you need to whip out the knife and or gun.. I always elect to walk away, but is my back turned to these thugs a good idea?
