Have you ever seen a fight in real life?

I feel like most people have witnessed a fight.

What did you think of it?... I hate violence.

I went to HS with a genuine badass. Big, muscular and full on crazy. Any fight with him was a genuine pummeling as he also had zero self control

He was killed less than a year after graduation

@Thrust Killed in a confrontation I assume?
There is always an even bigger bad4ss out there.

I guess that is what is meant by "Live by the sword, die by the sword".

@Punches he crashed a car doing 100 on a 2 lane rd. Hit a huge stone wall with a forest behind it. Took 2 others with him, 1 survived.

His adoptive parents were lucky in that the familes agreed to settle for the $1 million policy on the car, and they could continue with their lives

@Thrust Sounds like kind of a complex story. But yeah you did mention he had no self control.

Not that this matters really but what if the families had tried to sue for more money and the adoptive parents didn't have the money? I mean, most of us have no where close to even one million, and 40 years ago that would have been like three million today?

@Punches by then he was an adult so they could only go after his assets which had to be minimal. But it was their car.

Tragically the other 3 guys were only in the car because their truck was stolen. They went to the club where he was bouncing for a ride home.

Rumor has it they spotted the truck and they were chasing it. It is impossible to prove
