In the old wild west people were very polite.
In the old wild west just about everyone was armed.

Isn't calling him "princess" somewhat disrespectful to women?

Is that what the movies tell you?
I have seen guns come out in the pool room 3 times in the 80’s. No shots fired. Ended peacefully every time.
No that's what my grandfather told me,he was there.
Certainly to princesses!

Here's what happens when you walk away from a bad situation. Your driving home in your car, the radio is on you're totally relieved and relaxed.
Then you arrive at your house, open the door kiss your wife, maybe go in the other room and check out the kids sleeping. Maybe fix a bowl of ice cream or some leftovers. Then sit in front of the TV watch some news or the late night shows take a shower and go to bed.
You may never know how close you came to this night ending so much differently and possibly changing the rest of your life, over "One Momentary Bad Decision".

Red shirt was hindered in his fighting ability by the skinny jeans.
There is a reason stories were never passed down by those who ventured into the frontier unarmed.
Doesn't become law until Sept. 1.
Cinderella definitely took offense and menacingly shattered her shoeCertainly to princesses!
i wonder how he would've looked if it was this bar:
There's always been fighting in pool halls/bars. Alcohol, testosterone and gambling can be a volatile mix. The difference today is that people don't seem to have the same level of restraint and it escalates from just throwing hands to someone going for a gun much more quickly.
De-escalating/walking away is always the best solution when you can. Having said that, If you don't let me walk away or it's outside a pool hall and I feel myself or my son is in danger or you attempt to come into my house, then it's going a different direction. I think most feel that way nowadays.

I have only one thing to add to this conversation. "It doesn't cost anything to be nice!"

Some will think you weak and therefore try some of their shit on you.
