94. Actually, that's the point of improvised weaponry.
Even the odds. It's something to resort to especially if someone isn't a 'big guy'. Not sure how you came up with such a bass-ackwards statement.

I'm not a 'big guy' or a 'tough guy'. I just got pissed off enough to fight back and found a way to get advantages. It's not about "acting macho", it's about being angry enough at those attacking you to act. Most of these kids don't have a violent bone in their whole body.

I don't know who you're talking about that supposedly claimed anyone can 'act all macho and scare away attackers'. It simply doesn't work that way. Those that have been in fights with bullies know that 'machismo' rarely has any damn thing to do with it.

Society will grow up one day. It has to.
