"There Must be 50 Ways to Leave Your Fighter" (with apologies to Paul Simon)


There are actually not that many in terms of concept. There must be 5 ways to "win," or to "finish" a fight, or survive and/or escape, whether soldier, citizen, security or cop.

1) You leave. You escape from the opponent (hopefully using the "Orderly Retreat" concept)

2) He leaves. You use threats, demands and actions to make the opponent surrender and/or desists and leaves.

3) He stays. You inflect less-than-lethal injury upon the opponent. Injure and/or diminish to a degree that the opponent stops fighting and chasing you.

4) You and he both stay. You control arrest, contain and restrain. You capture and escort the opponent. Or, you detain/capture the opponent and await the proper authorities.

5) He dies. Lethal methods. We fight criminals and enemy soldiers. Sometimes we kill them.

I like it too. I used to use the three possible outcome analogy for fights. You are better than him, you win. He is better than you, he wins. You and him are equal, nobody wins. When it comes to knife fights, you both die. So the odds are always 2:1 against you, which is why you need to 'even' them up, as in 'make them even more your way' if you can. Ambush is a good one, outnumber him, out gun him or out run him.
