Some things that work tactically are suicide legally. - Rory Miller, Facing Violence
This quote is from "Facing Violence," by Rory Miller. It is something that matters simply because there are so many ways fights occur or violence happens that comes from the misconception, misunderstanding, or prideful ego male testosterone driven monkey results in actions taken that will get you arrested and prosecuted.
Even if you luck out and don't go to jail you can bet it that a civil suit is going to cost you lots. I want to remind myself that if I cannot take a picture of any perceived injury then I don't need to act on it. I will get over any dissing, name calling, or any perceived slight against my so called manhood or manliness. I will get over it yet if I allow it to lead my monkey brain into driving the bus then I can expect to pay, and pay, and pay and pay both money and freedom. For me, that would hurt a whole lot more than a perceived slight against my ego or pride or both.
