The shoving before a fight is not new. What a sudden unexpected punch is called is a matter of vocabulary. Most boys would consider it "unfair". Trust me. I would do it. You shove I punch.

A man has gotta do what a man has gotta do. Nuff said.

And where your asked why you did it later, answer simply by saying; "It seemed like a good idea at the time." And leave it to the lawyers and court to settle.

If it's not worth fighting over, just walk away. If it is worth fighting over, you should have already hit him.

The best punch is the first one.

Is there any good reason to shove back? You KNOW this only would mean the other would start punching, so why not punch first? Shooting back after you have been shot dead is not a very realistic option...

Sure, if you're confident you can land his rear end in the mud, so perhaps he'll be too embarrassed to come back, or so mad that if he does, you can predict his attack and again settle his hash.

Actually if your going to punch somone because he might punch you why even take the chance that he might be armed. The more prudent action would be to carry a concealed weapon and shoot the bastard.

What do you mean "sucker punch"? Is a "sucker punch" a good thing?

You shove me, I'll put three bullets in your chest and two in your face. Unless I'm not carrying a concealed pistol in which case I'll "sterilize" you and crush your throat (or rip it out with my teeth) and you can consider yourself lucky. :-)
