		<description>This guy&#039;s a POS doing what trapped rats do.  It&#039;s not cojones, it&#039;s a sense of entitlement, and there&#039;s not a hint of anything manly about him.</description>

		<description>@ Apple-shaped Obese Male:

Like any law, this would need to be approached on a case by case basis.  Someone who physically cannot help it would not be sought by the police.  Although, they may recommend suspenders or something else to help with the problem.  I understand what you say, being apple-shaped myself and a few pounds overweight... my problem is having no ass! LOL seriously, pants tend to slide down on me, but I keep my shirt tucked in and wear a belt.  Worst thing that happens to me is my shirt comes untucked.

@ Everyone Else:

Regardless of what people want to claim, this isn&#039;t a racist attack.  There are plenty on whites, hispanics, and blacks... even Asians.. all trying to &#039;look cool&#039;.  Its not a race thing but a thug/gang thing.  And with thugs come all the gang wannabe&#039;s.  

You can call me whatever you want, but if you come to the club I work at you will not be allowed in dressed like that.  No thug or hiphop wear is allowed.  We set in place a dress code and we stick to it.  This includes:

NO saggy pants
NO gang colors of ANY type
NO bandana&#039;s/doo rags
NO ski hats/touques
NO t-shirts that come past upper theighs at most

The only real exception to this has been the Muslim-type head coverings, but they cannot be tied up like a bandana, they must be tucked up underneath (looks more like a beanie).

Why did this come around?  Take it from a club bouncer--the most common trouble maker we deal with is..... you guessed it--the gang/thug/wannabe.  Weapons are more easily concealed in the big. baggy oversized clothing.  Having had an incident with one as recently as last night (pulled a knife concealed in his baggy pants) you can see why we do not let these people in the door.  Call it discrimination if you want, but the trouble makers (and thereby the imitators of trouble makers) are NOT the customers we want.

We recently posted a copy of the above posted picture outlining the saggy pants and are using it to help illustrate our dress code rules.  It has actually been very popular between staff and customers alike.  The only ones who have a problem with it are the ones we don&#039;t want inside anyways.  Others pull up their pants, tuck in their shirt, and tighten their belts, just so they meet the criteria and are allowed inside.</description>

		<title>Comment on How To Protect Yourself In A Bar Fight by phil</title>

		<description>You left out one other technique for the large, like you and I.  Walk right into the guy grab his face with an open hand and push him backward gripping to direct him to the floor. When he starts to fall, be in the now. Flip him as he falls, so he hits the floor face down.

Sit on him with his arms pinned at his sides with your knees.  Then say &quot;I do not really want to fight, are we finished now?&quot;

If he is not cooperating, slap the up ear sharp and quick, with an open hand and burst his eardrum.  This should put an end to it.  Only done this one time.  Did not have to hit the ear, as he was only 155lbs, and I am 240.  He was sober enough to see he was in a bad spot. The ear drum grows back if you do have to hit him.  No blood on the knuckles, and no black eyes.

Cheers, to getting along, and having fun without fighting, Phil  aka adventureboy7

Oh there is a variation if you are large and quick, as he falls onto his back you can give him a quick tap to the nose by releasing your grip and using a quick short jab.  Once again no black eyes, maybe a blooded nose.  With Aids and Hep C, the ear is the safer target.  With this technique you let him go the floor and you stay on your feet, and as you suggest, take a few steps back towards the closest wall.  Preferably one with a door in it.</description>

		<description>I love burpees! I do them in between sets of weight training so that I am still working hard. After a grueling workout, I have probobly done in the range of 80+ burpees. I acctually dont do any running any more, and I feel that I am in better shape now than before.</description>
