I've witnessed this monkey dance (Sam Harris's term) a few too many times between guys. A bump here, a look there, and before you know it; fists are flying. Saw it occur tonight as well.
There's this weird phenomenon that occurs with a lot of guys (usually younger ones) where fighting becomes a pretty straight solution for them, regardless of the legal or physical consequences later down the road. Probably even worse with immature minds on extraordinary doses of androgens.
Knowing how a lot of you guys have bounced, worked security; or have been jacked a good portion of life (which brings some weird confrontations with guys); Have you fought a lot in life? Learned a lot from it?
Every trained fighter I've talked to has wanted to avoid fights like the plague in real life; there seems to be no return on the investment. But for guys the social consequences of avoiding one seem to be just as detrimental as legal ones for partaking in one lol
