Why do(part III)...
we as men allow our competitive spirit to get the best of us at EVERYTHING, and take us to the brink(and beyond)of unecessary violence?
Have yall ever went to a club only to have your plans for a good time interrupted by unecessary drama? What were you thinking when it happened?

Yes this has happened to me a couple of times. I usually think "See this is why I do not go out very often." or "I am getting too old for this mess." or "You mean to tell me I paid $5, 10 and NEGROES want to act a fool." "I should have stayed home and watched a movie or read a book"
Truthfully it happens far too often so I never really go to the clubs anymore. I usually frequent fraternity or sorority shindigs and First Friday's ventures.

Even though I've guilty of my share of drama, I get tired of seeing it too. I feel embarrassed when I think of all of the times I fought because it was fun(unecessarily). I know it takes time for us to realize this, and now I wish I would've learned it sooner. Now I know Crimsontide how it made you and all others feel when it abrupts after you've paid money to have a good time at the club.

I don't party, unless it's a Sorority function. But I did almost come to blows with an entire family on a plane ride to Vegas. Actually it was a year ago this week.
I was 35 then, although I was not the cause, and I stand behind my right to defend myself. It was truly embarassing. Only a hand-full of blacks on the plane, and here we are clowning. I was hoping to see the family on the return trip, because I would have apologized, just because it was the right thing to do.

(AKAME92 REMINISCING) REMEMBER BACK IN THE DAY GROWING UP (THE 70's FOR ME, WEST SIDE OF CHICAGO), WHEN YOU HAD A PROBLEM WITH SOMEBODY YOU COULD TAKE IT TO THE STREET, AND YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ANYBODY REACHING FOR A GUN?
WHEN BILLY TOLD JOHNNY "MEET YOU AFTER SCHOOL UNDER THE LIGHT POLE", DIDN'T MEAN THAT BILLY OR JOHNNY HAD X AMOUNT OF TIME TO GET STRAPPED?
BACK THEN, THERE WAS HONOR IN BEING ABLE TO, IF NECESSARY, GET DOWN AND DIRTY AND "WHUP SOME A@$!!" THERE WAS SKILL INVOLVED. THE BIGGER THE KID THAT WAS TRYING TO TAKE YOUR CANDY, THE MORE SKILL YOU NEEDED.
BACK THEN IT WOULD BE A FIGHT, THE FIGHT WOULD END, EVERYBODY WOULD GO HOME, AND BE COOOOOOL THE NEXT DAY! LIKE NOTHIN' HAPPENED.
NOWADAYS, FOLKS REACH FOR GUNS TO SETTLE "DISAGREEMENTS". WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO SCRAPPIN'?
