"I’d like my long streak of non violence to continue"

--------------------------------

Commend you for that !

I grew up urban, luv'd playing hoops. Played a lot in the Black part of town, because that's
where the best players were at. Many times, the only white kid ( teen ) there. I avoided many
physical confrontations just by being level-headed, and not reacting to verbal insults.
I'd actually laugh when called a "honky", what the hell did that made up word mean to me,lol ?

Learned early in life that there is always someone tougher. Seen lots of fights, seen bullies
get an azz whippin. Martial Arts teach as much mental discipline as fighting technique.
Always noticed that the real good ones never ran their mouth.
