Thumbs down Grown men fighting...

After voting I was driving out the parking lot and I saw two men in their mid-30s fist fighting.

They were swinging at each other, landing the odd blow, yelling and then throwing punches at each other, over and over.

I drove over to where they were, rolled down my window and laid on my horn until I got their attention.

Startled they both stopped and looked at me, at which point I forcefully hollered out the window of my car:

"Hey! Stop that fighting! That type of behavior is inappropriate! STOP IT!"

I suspect that I paused their aggressiveness long enough for reason to set in. They backed away from each other and one of the men said, "he hit me first" to which I abruptly responded, "I don't care! Fighting isn't acceptable!".

The men parted ways and I stuck around long enough to ensure that they didn't start up again.

My good deed is done for the day. I may now rest.

LMAO! No, I should get a camera phone though, then I'd have it for sure...

The one guy was taking most of the beating (the one who said "he hit me first") and had a pretty red/bruised face.

I'm just glad they stopped and I didn't have to get out of my car to get involved.

Just goes to prove that the word coupled with common sense is still very powerful.

Grow up.

They knew that would have been a bad choice. Fighting is not acceptable behavior and is always a bad choice.

Whether you like it or not, fighting is part of our nature. It's a way of getting in touch with our roots, one of the very few activities we could ever engage in that could be traced back to the days our ancestors walked around wearing furs, carrying heavy clubs in their hands. In your eyes, it may not serve a useful purpose, but it does, just like everything else in life. If anything, it's a healthy way of releasing anger - as opposed to picking up a gun and shooting up your classmates a la Columbine. But hey, go on ahead trying to analyze life out of existance, i'm not stopping you.

No it doesn't. What am I going to use it when I'm in a meeting with investors? boardmembers?

Some member of the board disagrees with me so I punch him in the face? No.

What is useful to me is knowledge, understanding, patience, executive maturity, logic.

The above qualities get me somewhere in life. I hope you can use them too to be successful - because fighting might make you successful in a parking lot behind a club - but it's not going to make you successful in life (unless your a boxer or wrestler, and I've seen you -- it's not likely).

No, I press charges, issue press releases/public notices (to defame his character) and file a civil suit and take his assets. IMO - A disgraced poor man is worse off than a beaten man anyday.

The world doesn't revolve around you - just because you can't see something doesn't mean it isn't there.

Is that you on the pic? If so, you really shouldn't be talking. I work out 6 days a week like clockwork.

So if someone beats up your mother, you'll issue a public notice? I've heard enough.

No, what I'm saying is that fighting doesn't work in business - and business is life (Everybody�s life).

You come on to TA posting "who's an entrepreneur, who has their own business" talking like a businessman and then suggest that fighting is a method to resolve things? Congruency my friend, congruency.

Yes, that is my photo. Maybe you need to re-look at the muscles under my superman costume...

Do you have any idea what having a criminal conviction does to someone? For me - having someone paying the rest of their life working nothing jobs, struggling to get by is much more of a penance that me breaking his neck. Physical wounds heal reasonably quickly - a life of hell, paying for your crime is much, much worse.

Business is not life. thats way too much of a westerners train of thought. I own my own business and the one of the main things it taught me is business is business and thats all it is. u dont bring it outside the work place. not everything in this life is about business and its certainly not life.

nobody said fighting was a way to resolve things. But in some cases with certain people and in certain situations ur left with nothing but ur fists because all logic all understanding has been tossed out the window by the othewr man in a rage. Orsometimes ur attacked and do u think saying "hey stand their im calling my lawyer!" is going to work? no way in hell. fighting is not the way to solve all disputes but sometimes its the only way. And ps business and fighting go hand in hand, why do you think wars start?

not only that but i dont think you've ever worked next to CEO's and company owners while theyre conucting million dollar deals..itys not all rosey posey sipping on cups of teas..theres tons of verbal arguments name calling and they do act very childish...man they bitch eachother out making threats and all..remember with business ur scrambling to get ur cut of the pie...u dont want to hear or see the things that happen in business..they eat you alive..its the way human nature is.. the strong survive

having a criminal conviction doesnt do much trust me. Especially one in assault. Most millinaires have lots of convictions. mo money mo problems. most millionaires are uneducated as well. you know why? most uneducated people with convictions have the balls to make risky decisions most educated people wouldnt touch with an 8 foot pole cause they were told/taught not too..

You're only hearing what you wanna hear. Go back and re-read my posts. Or better yet, quote the one where i claimed that fighting is THE method to resolve things. I said it's an option, and i stand by that. It may not do as much long-term damage to your enemy as some of the other tactics you suggested, but it will do your psyche a hell of a lot more good. Sometimes, a good fight (or even a good beating) is what you need to get your mind right, to put things into perspective. And since in the end of the day, you're your own worst enemy, which do you think would benefit you more: a knife fight to the death and deep scars to remind you of how much you love your mother and how far you'd go to protect her, or a grueling court battle that would could stretch out for so long that she may never live to see the end of it? Sit down and think about it, really think.

Damn, this has GOT to be the first time i've ever read such a long post and didn't find a single thing i could disagree with Business isn't a fight, it's FUCKING WAR! Before RJ realizes that, i think he needs to go into a few of those meetings he could walk out of $100,000 richer or poorer just because he said one sentence too few or one too many.

LOL! Ok.. If you only knew...

When was the last time you were in involved in "conucting million dollar deals"?

I wouldn't hire a criminal (felon) to buff my damn shoes. Nor would any other corporation (something about being a liability).

I guess I'd agree. If one doesn't aspire to much - being a felon doesn't matter much.

u think i would ever want to work for a huge corporation where u are just number and sit at a desk all day? buddy huge corporations dont run this country. working for huge corporations #1 u will never make any real money #2 ur replacable and therefore they dont give a shit abt u. dont think working for these corporations is business ur totally wrong lol. Ive never conducted a million dollar deal in my life hopefully one day i will. BUt i have been present when they've gone on since i was a kid. I dont think u know what type of family i come from. but no bother.

Actually, they do. They own the government, the courts, and judging by how deep in debt the average person is, they own the people too.
