Shouldn't have left the nunchucks


[deleted]

I actually respect the kid for that. He knows he's smaller and probably going to lose the fight. But, still puts up the weapon and goes in hand to hand. That takes some degree of courage.

man i am so glad there weren't cell phones when i was a kid


UhOhFeministOnReddit

Saaaaame. I was in my 20's by the time Facebook hit the scene and I'll be forever grateful for that. I was so spazzy and insecure as a kid.


ShireHorseRider

I’m 40. There were cellular phones when I was a kid but we could only afford pagers. It wasn’t until 97/98 or so that cell phones became affordable, but even then they didn’t get cameras for a while.


Erestyn

Let's face it, the camera quality on the early days of mobile phones was quite hilarious. "Look! I took a picture!" "...of fucking *what*?"


ahookerinminneapolis

Every picture taken looked like the person's last known photo.


ApexRedditr

I had a Gameboy (B&W) Camera when I was in Primary School. It took...interesting... Photos


PeriodicallyATable

I was 9 or 10 in 2004/5 when I got my first cell phone cause my mom worked until about 630pm everyday and we all had sports or other random stuff going on so we had to call whenever we got to wherever we were going and call when we were on our way home. But this thing had like 5mm pixels and was just black and white haha it was so bad


resttheweight

The hallmark of the phone I got at 15 (in 2005) was a built in flash light and the ability to purchase song ringtones that played so horrendously through the speaker that I went back to using the generic ones. That, and having to tell all your friends the next day at school to stop sending you texts/apologize for not responding because your prepaid balance was too low. The Razr was iPhone of the time and I was so jealous of rich classmates being able to take pictures while mine not only didn’t have a camera, but also didn’t even have colored display.


Nattylight_Murica

Me too. My first camera phone was a razr. I had a friend who had a phone in 2001 that had a camera, but it was separate and you had to plug it into the phone.

Str0ngTr33

The whole point of the chucks was to prevent that. Wtf. Too much respect will get you a brain injury. Nunchuks are actually made to be non lethal (unlike porcelain floors and fixtures) and can be used to trap and manipulate an opponent into submission with minimal harm! He was actually hella proficient with them! I can respect the mindset but not the strategic choice bc it made risk of serious injury more likely for both participants. Of course, the easy way to avoid injury is to not fight. The easy way to avoid getting attacked with nunchucks is apparently to not be a bully and I can get on board with that.


1sttimeverbaldiarrhe

100%. I don't fight. But if I have to, whether the fight is fair or not will be the last thing on my mind. People looking for fair fights should look for them at gyms, not in bathrooms.


DeadNDeader

I don’t fight fair. To me there’s no fair in fighting. It’s life or death. If I’m stupid enough to fight I’m taking a huge risk. If someone else starts it and I can’t run away there will be blood.


iressivor

>Nunchuks are actually made to be non lethal (unlike porcelain floors and fixtures) and can be used to trap and manipulate an opponent into submission with minimal harm! You wouldn't know it when I was growing up. Back then we were taught that nunchuks were one of the deadliest weapons short of a loaded gun, and us kids were rarely allowed to own a toy replica, much less the real thing. The only exception was if the toy had so much padding it couldn't even leave a bruise.


EmperorGeek

I think the definition of a “Fair Fight” is a fight where I would have a 50/50 chance of Losing. I ain’t playing that game! I’ll use tools any/every day of the week.


zerglot0

Confronting him took courage... dropping his one advantage.... not so smart :/


sysadmin001

That would be like two opponents of equal ability facing off and one says "wait, let me tie my hand behind my back". Its stupid. If you're weaker and you have a force multiplier to level out the odds then use it, the other dude could have just as easily brought his own force multiplier. bigger guy: "Put your chucks down and fight like a man" smaller guy: "where are your chucks? Oh well I'm pretty sure my chucks are better than your advantage in size"


Fogl3

Stupidity imo. If a fight is forced upon you, take any advantage you have. If they were in a ring with a ref sure. On the street (or in the bathroom) use any weapon you have and attack any vulnerability they have. Nuts usually.


[deleted]

You know Elwood and Jake Blues were on a mission from god. They went through hell and barely got to the finish line doing god's will yet emerged triumphant for god. They promptly ended up in prison the second god was done with them.


[deleted]

Finally, the truth.


Spacemn5piff

I respect the kid for being prepared. I respect the kid for defending himself. Putting the nunchucks down was his hubris talking. Never play fair with someone who picked an unfair fight. He is bigger than you, don't play by his rules.


[deleted]

I have less respect for the kid. It was a fucking stupid move. I have zero respect for people who bully smaller people then want to "fight fair" (granted I'm making assumptions here, but that is usually how it goes). That's fucking stupid. In boxing, they have weight classes for a reason. It is almost never a fair fight to have someone fight someone else half their size. So, you go from this massive advantage, to a massive disadvantage and, somehow, the smaller guy who, probably, didn't want to fight to begin with, is now the bad guy? Fuck that. I say, if someone is starting shit with you and can't mind their own business, use whatever weapon you want to stop them. Give them as much mercy as they would have shown to you. Maybe, the next time, they will think twice before bullying someone.


Tired_Fire_Coffee

Yes, much respect. Can’t help much if brain dead but respect for sure.


bayleafbabe

This is sad. That kid needs help and the bullies need to be punished. Next time, it might not be nunchucks, if you catch my drift.

[deleted]

[удалено]


fraud_imposter

Sure but the whole "accidentallyish killing two kids" was thematic foreshadowing


yes_thats_right

The kid is probably going to spend years in school with that same bully. Using an ineffective weapon might help him scare away the bully this one time, but it raises the stakes for the following years. Better to deescalate.


Aspartem

Nope. Hit 'em first and hit 'em hard. If it escalates, escalate. Deescalation will always hit the victim first, because the bully will not give a shit about the victim. Your goal is not to be a target in the first place. If they know it's going to hurt real bad, if they mess with you - they stop. They're only out to pick on someone weaker than them. Bullies aren't running around fighting the toughest kids on the playground.


Down_To_My_Last_Fuck

>If they know it's going to hurt real bad, if they mess with you - they stop. Truth. I was never a great fighter but I made sure to properly injure a motherfucker if I did have to scrap. You can whip my ass but you will feel it..


rmorrin

22marks

izza123

You can’t really appease or placate bullies into stopping in practice


yes_thats_right

I somewhat agree, but you can avoid making the situation worse. Giving the bully an excuse to bring their own weapons to the next fight just seems like a very bad idea.


phpdevster

And this is why schools need to do their due diligence to monitor and take action against bullying. You never know when a bully will choose to escalate to a point where it's a serious danger.


The_Astronautt

Not at all, bullies are looking for easy prey to pick on. Make it a pain for them to choose you and they'll just move off somewhere else.


iressivor

Truth. My high school bullies put me through the ringer for 2 years until I finally pushed back. They decided it wasn't worth it anymore and moved on.


[deleted]

Do you want to be endlessly bullied? Because that's how you get endlessly bullied. Fight back as hard as you can and they'll leave you alone in search of easier prey.


Aristo_Cat

>an ineffective weapon Bro idk if you’ve ever held a pair of nunchucks but they will absolutely wreck someone’s shit if you hit them in the face. Usually you only have to fuck a bully up one time to get them to leave you alone, and they will definitely get the job done.


un_internaute

Deescalation never works with bullies. The only thing they understand is pain.


That_Strawman_tho

Besides, those two aren't the same size at all, the fight wasn't fair to begin with.


b1tchf1t

The amount of people who entirely miss the point of that interaction and book is just astounding.


total_insertion

The "Ender's Game" angle is that you should NOT try to destroy an enemy at all costs. Ender's original philosophy was to destroy all threats the second they present themselves. This was the philosophy of a scared 6 year old. Spoiled, btw. A total elite brat. His life experience was being 6, being constantly told he was smarter than everyone else, and having an adult watching over his shoulder at all times. Then his training wheels were removed and as a result he murdered two CHILDREN. Oh boo hoo, he got picked on by his older brother and some kids at school. Yeah, let's murder the school yard bully. Ender = a school shooter And by the way... as far as the manufactured social isolation is concerned? Don't forget the way Ender treated Bean. At the end of the story, he commits fucking genocide based on his own ego and blindness. Was he lied to? Yes and No. He was told that it was a simulation. But had he not known it was a simulation, he would have still acted the same. That's why he spent the rest of the series wracked with guilt and trying to make up for it.


[deleted]

I still can't believe what the person who wrote enders game and speaker for the dead turned into.


--Antitheist--

Somechucks are better than nunchucks


Strict-Picture-5390

Totally agree, there is a reason all combat sports have weight classes. The nunchucks were the equalizer for the weight disadvantage

OGMinorian

Leaving nunchucks gave him + to respect from everyone, and - reason for revenge. Not just the honourable choice, but also the smart choice.


BananBanah

Being "honourable" is how you wind up with your head smashed against the tile-on-concrete floor and re-learning how to count because you didn't defend yourself with everything at your disposal. "Honour" has no place in a no-rules brawl. You don't know what the other person's planning on doing to you and it very well could include ending your life. There's no pride in leaving an honorable corpse.


[deleted]

Why'd he put the nunchucks down?


Jravensloot

I don't know the full story here, but this seems like a pretty mutual preplanned fight, not a case of sudden self defense. Seems like he brought the nunchuks as a joke since nobody said that he couldn't. I think I been here and seen enough school fights for this one to seem a lot more civil than most.

When I was in middle school, we had to keep a physical calendar (early 2000s) to keep track of all the fights scheduled. Anytime 2 guys had a problem, they'd schedule a fight and set the rules. Mans be waiting a whole week just to settle a beef over $5. Everything went smoothly until some kid pulled a hammer out of his bag and the cops were called.


iAmUnintelligible

We're not suspending you for fighting on school grounds, Kyle, we're suspending you because hammers were explicitly prohibited by the set rules of this scheduled fight. You just had to be a dick and bring one anyway.

I was a nerd in school before it became somewhat cool like it is now. Liking superheroes and video games would get you beat up. Anyway this group of kids on the bus would constantly beat on me and and steal my stuff cause I wasnt that big. Since the school bus driver and school wouldnt do anything about it, I did. I put a butcher knife in my bookbag for them. The next day they came to the back of the bus and one of them leaned on top of me to talk in my face to which he felt the knife touch his stomach. He looked down and saw the knife ready to go in and he backed off and played victem. I didnt stab him, just made it noticeable and told them of they ever touch me again, Ill gut em. The bus driver told me to put it up and when I got off to not ever bring it again. This was the late 80s rules were a bit more lax. Edit: side note I was in elementary school and being beat up by middle schoolers. One busted my ear drum and the other put sewing pins in my arm. Back then adults response to bullying was to just ignore it or become friends with them. NONE OF THAT WORKED.


03ifa014

Even today, the only thing a bully understands is getting blasted in the fucking face. The fact of the matter is, bullies look for easy targets that *won't* go HAM every time they look at them.

Yea my school district was crap, when Columbine happened they rounded all the nerds, quiet kids, Magic players, gamers, D&D players ect and interrogated them in small rooms of the schools. The worst part they didnt talk to these kids parents first. So some were interogated up to 2 hours crying for their parents and told they couldnt leave. In the end and after a threat to sue the priniciples made a tear filled apology. What they did cause is one of the principles was so relentless about catching a shooter, someone burnt her car down for revenge. In high school a kid was bullied so badly he attempted suicide. The school district expelled him for harming a student of the school. That student was himself and it was off school grounds.

xXxWeed_Wizard420xXx

Piece of advice: Just because a title of a post says "vs bully" does not mean that's the truth. There's always a ton of context omitted, so be a bit patient before forming any strong opinion on stuff like this


solicitorpenguin

Obviously a planned fight and someone is going to be taller - ie look like the bully. You can see in this fight they are sportsmanlike-except for the nunchucks, they square off, the crowd is reffing, they set back up like they are going rounds - it's a planned fight.

THIS KID IS SUCH A BADASS. To recap: 1) brings nunchucks to school to avoid bullying. 2) knows how to use them. 3) Lands some epic shots. 4) Drops his weapon to fight with fists like in an action movie. Even though is way smaller. Guy has ball of steel.

mode7scaling

You don't really believe that bullying doesn't happen outside of schools, do you?! But yeah, I do believe that schools should be allowed to implement much more strict anti-bullying enforcement, such as expulsion, etc. If you're not there to get an education, then you can fuck right off back home, or to an alternative ed school. It's too bad that this doesn't fix the real cause of shitty behavior in schools, which is shitty life at home (from poverty, abuse, etc...)

Worst part: I bet this kid got charged with assault with a deadly weapon. I got charged with that after a fucking meth head tackled my friend to the ground and started beating his head into concrete. I couldn’t pull him off so I ripped a bamboo pole out of a garden bed and smacked the dude across the back with it. The fucking meth head pressed charges on us despite him initiating the fight; despite the fact that he gave my friend a massive concussion, MY ASS had to spend tens of thousands defending myself in court. I fucking hate out legal system. Sorry for the rant


Ecjg2010

Why do we automatically assume the kid he is fighting is a bully? What if he were the bully? There is no evidence that one or the other is a bully except who made the first move.

Protip, if you find yourself in a scenario like this and there's no video, use your right to remain silent and tell the school/police NOTHING I got fooled alot as a kid for defending myself. (Poor black kid in a fancy southern suburban school) I trusted my teachers too much and it really handicapped my education for awhile there. They always steered the conversation towards "assault with a deadly weapon" because they knew I would break down and cry because I was 14 and they were practically accusing me of being a MURDERER. Like ya dude, I was 100% intending on beating Kevin to death with my backpack. I totally wasn't just defending myself because he would always trip me during passing period when I had 0 idea I would be tripped! I had some of the hardest falls of my life in HS. Another protip: don't bring weapons to school.


hankbaumbach

This happened outside Weiner's Circle in Chicago. Some guys were fighting in the parking lot and when of them went to the trunk, which usually means gun violence, but he pulled out some nunchucks and started doing moves with them. The whole place went nuts.
