My uncle was a short little thing.He walked into a bar, picked out the biggest man there, hit him just as hard as he could.He claimed that usually dazed him enough that he could work him over for most of a minute. By that time, the poor devil was completely beaten.Everybody knew Uncle Dick had just beaten the biggest man there so they never wanted to fight him.(Everybody has heard of Uncle Dick, they even refer to him when someone is misbehaving, leaving out the “Uncle” portion.)
I am reminded of a confrontation not long ago in which one person had nothing but skinned knuckles and a bullet hole in his heart, the other had many bruises from his head being repeatedly smashed into the concrete. Millions still side with the knuckle bruised person.
Not as far-fetched as one might think. One night 30-some years ago, I was outside a supermarket talking to a friend when two vehicles came screeching to a halt in front of me, one a huge pickup truck, cutting off the other, a much smaller sedan. Big guy came flying out of the truck. Little guy driving the car got out, apparently to try to run; but the big guy caught him. Little guy tried to pull out and unfold a pocket knife, which the big guy effortlessly slapped out of the little guy’s hand. By the time the cops showed up, the big guy had gone. And despite my statement that the big guy was totally the aggressor, the cop was getting ready to charge the little guy, because the little guy, in an effort to defend himself, was the first to produce a “weapon.” Might seem obvious to you who started it; not so obvious to the law.

A few shots of Cuervo will make the guy on the right ten feet tall
