The Difference between Self-Defense, Fighting, and Martial Arts

You can “fight”, but can you “defend” yourself?

Round 1: Fight!

Food for thought…

Johnny fought a guy at the grocery store who bumped into him and dropped explicit profanity his direction yesterday. Johnny “won” that fight by breaking his arm and knocking him unconscious. But this was after the other guy got a clean sucker-punch. Johnny’s mouth is wired shut for 6-months and serving 2-5 years for aggravated assault and battery. His wife is struggling with the bills and childcare and considers divorce. But Johnny’s honor is intact. Johnny is proud. Johnny stood his ground!
