Situational awarness!!!
You have to stop , think and evaluate a situation before you engage in it even if that engagement is simply asking sombody to turn down their radio.
At this day in age you should think about what could happen , with people like he confronted if their were only one or two then their would have likely been no issue but a house full of people , bad idea , people like this are like hynenas. They are pretty much totaly pussys unless their is a pack of them then their are a force to be recconed with.
Having investigated violent crimes and altercations much like this i will assure you that their are 3 sides to this story
#1 The punks , #2 Pat Matsuda's , #3 the truth
People need to think about the situation , what is going on , think about what actions are needed and what the result in those action might be , think about what step you are going or willing to to take and what repurcussions could come from that.
Problem: kids accross the street are playing musce to loud and its late at night , you need to get to sleep and your kids also , the musci doesent allow that.
1) you can call the poilice and complain as their is a almost surely a noise ordanance violation , the police show up shut the party down , this could result in the party goers possibly getting mad and say cutting your tires or damaging other property
2) you can go over , explain you situation nicely and ask if they could turn it down some , they could comply and everything works out fine or they could say "fuck off" , at which point you can withdraw and call the police or stay and argue
3) you decide to stay and argue , this will surely escalate to physical altercation , at this point you are in the wrong !!! you went looking for trouble and found it , now best option from here is LEAVE , if you are followed back to your home They are in the wrong , they followed you looking for trouble and they should find it.
What im saying is that alot of guys let their ego get them in trouble , yea you are 100 pound bigger maybe 200% stronger that your opponents but if their are 4-5 of them you are going to end up a statistic!!
people need to slow down and think about whats going on and what action they can take and what result those action will have on the future
