    The violence had allready been started by the kicker, I am sure you would have shrugged it off as you are a much nicer person than me. A full armlock would still not have injured him.

    Or a bit of a girly.

    No I genuinely admire people who don't get worked up about anything and can accept any shït life throws at them with a shrug, it must be nice.

    I've always thought you were a woman?

    Are you actually a bloke?

    In what way was it similar? I was defending myself from continued violence and I caused my assailant no injuries.


    And you would achieve this on an aircraft how? As that is the environment under discussion.
    Taking action like that can prompt an immediate diversion, involvement of the local police & a banning from that airline. Not a good start or end to a holiday

    In fairness we've moved the discussion on away from the plane :)

    In fairness I didn't say I would accept it. I would just deal with it without resorting to physical violence.

    Yep. Many threads in Discussion Time are at least this long, if not longer ;)

    I might as well pull up a seat then! Looks like the thread has took a whole new direction now!

    Well the fact you think "girly" is an insult makes me think you're actually a bloke.

    Surprising.

    In no way do I condone violence, but I probably would have cheered the cinema goer who threw the guy kicking the chair out too! Extremely irritating someone continually kicking your chair even after they've been told to stop it.

    I can't believe the guy didn't put up much of a fight back? He must have felt a prize prat, trying to be cocky and it didn't work, all he got was shown up infront of his GF! :rotfl:
