(6,241 posts)situation, and you went after this guy, at what point would you stop hitting/fighting him? When he says he gives up? How would you know that it's an actual surrender and not just a ruse? When he loses consciousness? Would you be able to recognize it in an amped up state? Just enough to get your daughter away from him? What's to stop him from pulling out a knife and stabbing you in the eye?
How would you know which punch or kick would be enough to disable him and which would kill him? That first punch could kill him. Would you punch once, check for vitals, then do it again? Give the guy a chance to fight back? I would keep going until he was down. It wouldn't be a fair fight. A fair fight could get me and my daughter killed. I would fight to protect her, and I would fight to win. This is fighting for survival.
