No, just someone who understands how to deal with threatening situations I guess. I can't help it if you guys are dense and don't realize the last thing you want to do is take on an individual with any weapon, and the best course of action is to run, hide, then fight. If pushed into a situation where you have to fight, then make it on your terms. Some dip#### with a skateboard has to get within striking distance to use it as a weapon. If you follow self defense principles you will be prepared to take that action on. Be aware, be cool, be decisive, be aggressive when it matters, use speed, and play dirty.

If you don’t think a baseball bat is a deadly weapon you’re being straight up ####ing stupid. No amount of machismo or bravado will strengthen your skull.
But hey, if you’re confident that you are more aware of reality than every judicial system in the western world, play ball! But unlike on the field, it’s more a one strike and your out kind of game.

Yeah none of the stupid #### you're suggesting brah. Just trained in self defense. Know your situation and know how to respond in a way that gives you the best chance of getting away while exposing yourself to the least amount of risk possible.

When flat out wrong, double down I guess? Brutal take.

Or just recognize that a skateboard is a ####ty weapon. Here's an incident where 10 wannabe tough guys take their skateboards to guy. They paid a pretty good whoopin' on him, but he got out of this alive and with only a short hospital stay. The smart thing would have been to walk away, but like many morons out there, he pushed a bad situation too far and got into an altercation where he had no upper hand. Dumb move on his part. He didn't control the situation and ultimately made himself a victim.
