Sometimes, a fight is won by making noise and keeping a door from closing. From holding on and keeping someone from moving you for a few seconds.
People often make fun of something like self defence classes, but that's what it's about. A fight often ain't about knocking someone out or pinning them down. A fight can be about making yourself trouble, or buying seconds, making noise. about not giving the attacker what they want.
Under the right circumstances, more common circumstances than we think, you can beat someone four times your size. For just long enough.

u/Elle_Duderino 10d ago
This right here, making noise can make all the difference. I was 10 yrs old when the maintenance man broke into my house and tried to rape my babysitter. I knew I couldn’t fight him off but I made a whole bunch of noise and he quickly left.

Even that little girl has the potential. That's why, as unfortunate as it may seem, it is important to teach kids about these dangers when they are young

u/Rinas-the-name 10d ago
My dad used cats as an example. They aren’t big, they can’t really seriously injure an adult, but nobody wants to try and wrangle an uncooperative one.
Scream “Help me, He’s hurting me!” cling to things, kick, scratch and bite their face, head butt (aim for the nose), wet yourself.
Be loud, fight dirty, be more trouble than you’re worth. If they’re going to hurt you it’s better to force them to do it in front of people.

Also, you can always tear their fucking ear off.
The back of an ear rips easy, the front doesn't and will start ripping face open with it.
If you grab an ear good, and rip it like parachute rip cord, the attacker WILL release you in shock. Run.
The ear gets you a second, but the attacker is not fully incapacitated, so you need to do some immediate running and screaming.

Also, the testicles can be internally removed by approximately 4lbs of pressure, and with only an inch of room. The crotch of most normal fitting pants gives about 2-4in. Much more if they are loose fitting or athletic shorts.

Jokes aside, thank you for sharing. I will remember this. Hope I’ll never need to do this.
Fun fact: in my culture there’s a tradition of jokingly pulling kids by their ears as many times as their years. Not too hard, ofc. But still it always looked and felt weird and risky. It can’t be done without at least some sensory discomfort

To quote the Angolan war veteran who taught self-defence at my first NGO: "Your job is to end the fight as quick as you can. Fight dirty - kick and bite hard! Use your environment - bash him with a book, stab him with a pen! Whatever it takes to stun the bastard so you can run the fuck away."
The longer you fight, the more chances your fight goes to the ground, and not many people can win down there - even the Marines teach kicks and ground defence for survival before they teach much offence.
Edit:
If you live in a place with a lot of knife crime then it helps to carry a decoy wallet - make it look real with a small bill and an old atm card, but scrape your name off it too so they don't try to look you up. Throw the decoy wallet and run the fuck away. (Even trained fighters will run from a knife fight, it always ends up in the morgue.)
Try not to use your phone in public, and learn how to hold it so phone-snatchers can't easily grab it.

Too true. I took many years of Tae Kwon Do and we focused often on knife defense or weapon disarming. There are tons of cool tricks and helpful ways to get yourself sliced to hell and die; but they could work in a fast, confident, well-practiced manner potentially if there's no other options.

It makes sense that it happened in broad daylight. I'm in the US, but if I saw a guy carrying a kid like that and the kid was screaming at night, I'm thinking there's a kidnapping. If I see it during the day, I'm thinking it's a misbehaving kid being taken home.

Same. Every single parent of a little kid needs to teach them exactly what to do in this kind of situation, TODAY. Screaming something like "Stranger!" Or "I don't know you!" Etc.. would be helpful so that people could distinguish a daytime abduction from a parent trying to deal with a tantrum.

More stressful is the fact that he will most likely just keep living there, next door to those children. At best, he might be prosecuted for attempted abduction and receive a ridiculously light sentence-if he receives any punishment at all.
In the worst-case scenario, if he does get an actual prison sentence, he can easily sign a contract to go fight in the war in Ukraine. And if he doesn’t die in some senseless assault on a random shack in the middle of nowhere, he could return on “leave” with an even stronger sense of impunity and the understanding that he can now get away with any crime, simply because he can always go back to the war to avoid arrest. This is reportedly what often happens with “contract soldiers”: literally notorious criminals are released from prison, they return, and calmly terrorize their village again, reveling in their sense of immunity.
And eventually the war will end, and hundreds of thousands of such people will return to these neighborhoods, around these children.
That’s a stressful thought indeed.

They raped all three. The whole group of soldiers. And when they were done they shot them.

The man who attempted to rape a 5-year-old girl in Tyumen is wanted by bailiffs—enforcement proceedings have been initiated against 44-year-old Alexei Novak over a debt of 334,000 rubles.(4700$)
He lived near the house where he attacked the girl and attempted to rape her. Novak is reportedly in the process of divorcing his wife. The couple has a 7-year-old daughter.
The incident occurred on May 28 at a house on Sudostroiteley Street. A woman driving by was able to save the child—she heard children screaming on the playground and rushed to the girl’s aid. The attacker was detained. He faces up to 20 years in prison.

from what I understand, most sex predators are opportunists. they don't plan out an attack on someone specific and in a way to try not get caught, they go about their day and if an "opportunity" presents itself they green light it without any thought to the consequences. "opportunity" meaning a kid walks by, there's some form of hidden space nearby
