    The opportunity has presented itself quite few times. Although they have never arisen to full fight. Fortunatly the situations cooled down before they got to that stage.

    Opposition and I just walk away, problem solved. No-one gets hurt... except maybe a little pride of both of us, but still, I believe respect is granted. Which is the best thing to do, really.

    Confronted a shop lifter in a retail electronics store who was in too big of a hurry to leave and fell down due to a forward foot sweep and was persuaded that he'd be safer staying there until the authorities arrived.

    The only other time was to escort an overly angry person out of where i was working at the time.

    In thirty years those are the only two time that I even came close to using MA in a fight. At some point it becomes clear that you've been training without having to say so, after that most people cool down quick.

    Fights in the millitary don't count, right? :D

    Oh, style: JJJ and Inayan escrima

    Nope never....Not at all. Well okay once in the sixth grade, but I hadn't actually started MA training yet. That didn't stop me from kicking ass though:D

    I have been in a few but i hate them. I have had the chance to be in many many fights but i dont get into them. Its not my thing. I dont like them and it doesnt help anything. Im strong enough in mind and self control to know that i dont have to be strong in body to win a fight.

    That's it. If you can stop the fight from happening then you've won it anyway. The other party just may not see it that way....
