Folks have to remeber, in a life or death struggle or situation, no fight is fair. Throw civility out the window and kick, punch, poke, stab or shoot to win. Put a finger in an eyeball if you have to.

Put a finger in an eyeball if you have to.

One of the first places I'll go, in addition to a punch to the trachea, and kicking out one or both knees.

 

[Keystone19250]

There is nothing that debilitates faster is a finger in the eye or eyes and kicking knee caps on the side or straight on.

I am a firm believer that the only real way to learn situation awareness is to be placed in a situation where situational awareness is a critical survival skill.

I also don't believe you can increase or decrease your situational awareness depending on circumstances.

You either are Situationally Aware or you are not.

More than once at when I was work I would catch somebody sizing me up and I would react to it even if all I did was just position myself to a place of greater advantage and as soon as the person who was sizing me up realized that I was aware of them and I was getting ready to fight they broke it off.

Everything is a weapon, keep that mindset when in bad circumstances.

I can't say it's the only way, but it is definitely the way I learned it.

My radar is on high whenever I am not in my home.

1000% yup
finger in an eye, is an attention getter, followed by the knee kick to the side. a finger in an ear down deep,
i tell my wife to fight like a russian...EVERYTHING IS A WEAPON ,

Too old and too broken to fight, it's not the years, it's the mileage.. One more reason I carry for self defense.

 

[MtPatriot]

I agree with all of the above and will add "HAIR, TEETH, and EYEBALLS, GROINBALLS" and anything
else that will hurt the assailant more than it will hurt you! And yes, carry wherever you can, even if you can't.

As a cop, long before we became social scientists, we were taught the C-clamp. Fingers and thumb around the trachea and squeeze. Worked every time for me. Course, we also were taught chokeholds, the bar arm and carotid. No taser, no tear gas, no portable radio…if you ran into s..t you had to handle it yourself. Luckily L.A. had the foresight to use 2-man cars.
