I will have to say, I can understand where Steve is coming from at times. Im now 33, but growing up in NY and being subjected to alot of bullshit, I can honestly say Ive had to knock a few people down in my day too. Sometimes assholes just ask to be smacked up, and when I was a bit younger, I would happily do it.
Now that Im older (and a gun owner

), have a wife and kid, I think twice and dont let alot bother me. But, it wasnt always like this unfortunately. Dont get me wrong, if someone fucks with me, and leaves me no choice, they will be dealt with. But with that said, its probably been around 6-7 years since Ive been in a fight...and if my memory serves me correctly, it was helping one of my friends out at a club, not something provoked by me.
To be honest, no one really fucks with me. Maybe its because of my big shoulders and chest

But seriously Steve, there are million and one motherfuckers out there that dont care about life or living tomorrow, dont be one of those guys.
