That's more of a hobby. I was in with the wrong crowd when I was younger, before I got into MMA when I got less aggressive but much more effective.

Well I guess so. I was always taught that thinking fighters win, thugs loose. Therefore, during a confrontation, I always try to weigh up the options and come to a probability that I'll survive if I do certain things.

Must be some sort of code.

Maybe the words would be more coherent when he gets his false teeth in properly :D

Which is exactly right. And most confrontations can be ended non-violently. I was always taught - and excercised - the tenet that if a confrontation ends in violence then you have immediately lost regardless of outcome. However there are on occasion times when action must be taken to resove a conflict.

But my point was that the majority of street criminals are not thinking fighters. Most street crime is actually spur of the moment stuff.

Oh and Im pretty sure I at no time insinuated a firearm was a penis extension. exactly the opposite infact.
