    If two grown men wanna fight and you agree when once it is done and one taps out the fight is over, then so be it. I have no issue with it. That’s how we used to fight back in the day. Problem is now nobody honors that. You’ll end up shot or stabbed or if you get knocked out the other guy gonna stomp on your head 10 times until you have permanent brain damage or you’re dead. Nothing wrong with a fair fight that’s over when it’s over.

    People might have more manners if more ### whoopings were handed out. The quality of driver might be better too if there were consequences to their actions. Which by the way happened way more frequently in the past. When trucking was better.

    Maybe don’t say stupid stuff like this and nobody will want to punch you in the face. Just a thought….

    I’m also extolling the virtue of minding one’s own business. Generally if you do that you don’t have to worry about random violence.

    Ghetto culture doesn't wait for an invitation to show up. Look how well it runs.

    It's the 4th quarter of Western Civilization. You will soon be required to assault someone to prove you are OK.
