-8 Teens arrested in beating a 16 yr. old -

Agreed 100 % there Lyle - it does reflect badly on real boxing and martial arts too because people hear of this violence and if they're unenducated about the sport they think it's the same type of people involved in both.

I wouldn't advocate hitting kids for most misdemeanors but if I had kids i'd open hand slap them a few times for this, ground them for a months, change their schools and ban them from ever associating with the same group of kids again plus probably force them to be slave to their victim for at least 6 months.

I'm not worried about how it reflects on BOXING or MARTIAL ARTS...I'd be worried about how it reflects on the family, the community, and just the overall country.


Open hand slap For this Honey, if they feel grown up enough to beat down a kid like that, then they are grown up enough to take an ass kicking like the one they dished out! If you can't take it, you shouldn't give it out....that is a RULE of LIFE much less, fighting no matter where, what style, or what age!

I do agree with you more than your realise Lyle.

I'm a boxer though - I'm talking an open handed slap as hard as my right cross when it's at it's best because I'd be really POd. It'd be more than they could give out in reality.

I wouldn't want to break bones or cut up faces or risk hurting my own fist but you can be sure it'd still hurt!

Plus i'm thinking serious manual labour for six months - perhaps whilst wearing a T-shirt that says I'm a cowardly piece of shit - humiliation max - would help drill the lesson in every day more than one little beating.
