I always have to laugh when someone brings a dictionary to an arguement.
This is the last time I'm going to say it. Just because we don't advocate violence and can in no way justify it doesn't mean we aren't going to use self defense when necessary. The rule of pacifism is that ALL fights can be avoided. You can talk theoretics all you want, but the odds are, if I'm walking away from you, you're not going to take me from behind. And even if you do, you're going to jail, it's as simple as that. And in the event that you've escalated it for no reason at all, then I might just break your wrist while defending myself. There's just as much violence if not more in a one-sided fight as there is when someone is fighting back. At that point, it's completely unavoidable. It's not like if I got attacked in the woods by a wolf I'd just let it eat me. Again, stop being so presumptuous.

3examples I was walking along one somebody stopped me in the street give us 50p "no sorry mate" and walked past him. then I get punched in the back of the head. I guess I could of avoided that by giving 50p.
A youth I didn't know rode his bike past me and punched me in the face. How was that avoidable.
I was in having a driink in my city centre when the one of the lads I was with got in an argument with a bunch of lads. Seeing that things were going to get hostile the lad i was with was all like I'm not looking for trouble and when of the other lads try to say something to diffuse the situation was told to shut the f up. So I decided to just be quiet. They then started to chase him up the street. One of the lads who was didn't chase him turned around and punched me in the face. Assuming he wasn't going to stop I attempted to defend myself. By the way the lad did get arrested but then so did I. So I should have just let him punch mer epeatedly and done anything about it.
