Youâre dealing with the sort of lads who slashed a poor office cleaner to death on her way home in the IFSC. Youâd be mad to fight back unless thereâs a big gang of you and very little of them. They may be cowards but you wouldnât know what theyâre carrying
Thats true but whats to say those scumbags donât use a knife anyway.
Get in a couple of boxes at least and run by all means then would be my thinking.
Just standing there being the better person and taking a bating has never ended well. I did that when I was 14 and it was an awful mistake.
There was no knives involved but my head was danced all over.
Not suggesting standing there at all. Just take a wide bearth if you see a group like that coming at all.
Are you talking about Dublin or Limerick there?
Agree again then.
But sometimes particularly if youâre young - you have to fight.
If youâre getting a few slaps anyway you might as well break a few noses
100% mate.
I learnt that lesson the hard way 20+ years ago.
Hardest man I ever met said you run, run like fuck. The only time you do anything else is if thereâs one between you and escape, in which case you hit him as hard as you can, and then run like fuck.
Dublin in this case. Willium Street is the same in Limerick no doubt
What happened to you pal
Erra nothing material. Teenage stuff.
Just a good life lesson that you donât stand back when attacked pal, even when its a group.
Go out swinging.
I just hope she was worth it
Part of growing up pal.
I was very wary the whole time
I didnât realise there were that many of them.
No wonder youâre so wary of taking a couple of jabs
Stay in your mud hut. Youâll be grand
I had a candle lit
Terrible advice. Run like fuck
You canât always run away pal.
