I've never been into a fight, I'm a very calm and easy going person, but every now and then, I had the weird though of getting the experience, most of the time when I see a dick head doing some dumb stuff on the streets...

If you have been in a bar or street fight, do you have any regrets, would you do the same if the same situation happened again today?

Early childhood was in South LA. Didn't have a choice. Was good at it.

Last one was as a college frat boy. A brawl that made national news. I grabbed and hurt a guy in a way that scared me.

Since then I avoid physical conflict like the plague. I stay ready to defend, but I avoid until I have no better choice. Also, I'm usually armed these days, so I can't be tussling or fussing with anyone.

Yes, but not since I was a kid/teen.

Is a bar fight considered a street fight? If so, yes.

Although I come from a dangerous neighborhood... I have never witnessed one... I am quite peaceful and I prefer zero violence!!

I have never been in that situation either, but I would always look for a way to avoid the problem if I have no other choice. The saying goes that he who gives first gives twice.

I remember that when we were in high school, someone started getting my brother into trouble and I had to fight for him (he was younger than me). I fought on a very popular street in my neighborhood and that day I won, but my brother never really forgot that victory.

I have been but not long, I regret it and I don't blame the alcohol

I definitely know what you mean

Btw, your poll is ambiguous. I voted yes because I have been in a fight but I could have also voted no because no, I wouldn't do it again.

a friend got jumped when walking around town on a night out in my 30s.

instinct was to rush and protect him, and the fight luckily didn’t continue past the first punch.

would def. try and avoid any conflict next time - got kids now and can’t fight to save my self 😂

When I was 4 years old I will always be involved in a street fight. Also, I am always on the losing end. I was able to control myself after that and stop doing it. And then in Middle School I would be involved in it yet again. Getting involved in fist fights. It is as if there is no tomorrow. Now I couldn't be bothered I am too weak to get involved in childish stuff.

not sure i would call it a fight - i got punched in the face by a homeless man on a city train, so i choked the guy out onto the floor from behind as soon as he turned around. to this day i consider that a peaceful and best possible outcome, since the train was crowded and no one else got damaged.
