AM Truth,

Have to agree with you there...America is still a racist country probrably will be for a while...but in many ways those racist neonazis-punks-skinheads etc on the streets don't scare me at all it's the white people in power that worry me like the police and big companies ...ironic thing is America is always banging about human rights and corruption in other countries like china i am sure America isn't so smug now with enron and worldcom scandals..and what about that white cop punching that kid on handcuffs caught on video ...welcome to America folks it's a great place unless u are white that is....

To AC Dropout/Mar-nut:
In my experience most effective fighters (in street situations) usually use one or two techniques in confrontations. For me the headbutt is my favourite.
Within a 2-3 foot distance headbutts are highly devastating [especially if your opponent grabs and PULLs you towards him.] followed up with strikes to the solar plex; throat and/or groin. I am a firm believer in following through with secondary attacks..usually hand, elbow,and knee strikes after my main "artillery" ie. the most effective and tested technique..in my case the headbutt.
Most fights[in the street] last under 90 seconds {often a lifetime at that} so if your instincts warn you of the disagreement [usually some stupid racist verbal garbage] approaching the physical level I am a strong advocate of hitting first with overwhelming and unexpected attack
This is what I like to call the "surge" phase where my adrenalin and vision become highly focused and where my physical response is implemented while my opponent is still busy "profiling or talking s***". You hit first HARD and talk later ie. "walk the walk". Often this approach to most civilians is viewed as a"sucker" punch or a "mugging" but all that matters is who wins...ie survives. As my CQB[Close Quarter Battle] Sgt. told me "you be first you be best"

"I never fight on school grounds. A lot of your civil rights are impeded as a student
AC Dropout"

i have to admit it's not the smartest thing to do when going on A full-on drag out fight during school but i don't regret it he had it coming. I am glad there are some asians such as yourself who wouldn't take crap from the whiteman besides most are cowards one look and they crawl away like little rats .

There was times where I questioned myself wheither I should get involved into a fight over some racist idiot remark. I don't know what the laws are but since the 911 thing everyone is parnoid especially the white people.

Maybe in the past you can punch the crap out of some idiot making a racist comment to you and defend yourself in the court system. Nowadays it seems that they will lock you up for even looking different(Arab speaking and looking) In a sick way I am glad that the white asses of this country are picking on Arabs and Muslims instead of the Asians but even this is stupid because once this country feels another threat from another ethnic group then that group will be the next target.

First it was blacks, hispanics and Asians and now the Middle Easterns. This fact alone is enough to show you that this country is racist and always will be, for all the equality and justice it preaches, there are many pockets of racism wheither subtle or overt.

I really don't think it will get better and in fact will get worse. The profiling and prejudism is sad here. If all our Asian brothers and sisters combat and risk their lives for justice then it is going to be a hugh uphill battle to be fought.

The white people in this country don't realize the damage they are causing by them stereotyping other minorities, if that is even the case world-wide. The white hate groups are right that if this keeps up there will be a revolution of the races and the whites will be diminished. Maybe when one of them say a racist remark to you it is actually a fear inside them that you will indeed take them over as a race.

Something to think about the next time you hear a racist remark.

Personally I would rather talk it out but sometimes fighting or war is the ultimate problem to end all problems.

He says a racist remark, you punch his face, he shuts up, case closed. If he remarks again you punch his face again, he shuts up again, case closed. You have to keep repeating yourself because some people don't get it the first time around.
