I hate people who record fights, with a passion.

Those are two human beings who are hurting each other and your first reaction isn't to call the police, or call for help, isn't to try and break them up or restrain one of them, but is to pull out your phone, start recording and screaming, 'World Star!' at the top of your voice like it's some kind of game.

Human bodies aren't indestructible, we have major weaknesses and one stray punch in the wrong place can ruin someone's life.
If you don't think this is possible, a footballer missed a shot and head-butted one of the advertisements.
When he did this he compressed his spinal cord and severed it between the vertebrates, paralysing his entire body for the rest of his life.
Humans are immensely fragile and it's something we often forget, so if you see two people fighting you should do everything in your power to stop them.

I also hate people who fight, with a passion.

If you are so mind-numbingly thick that you can't sort out a problem with someone without resorting to punching them in the face then you deserve everything you get back.
I've just watched a video of two women fighting, and one of the women's children is stood right there watching.
Instead of acting like a grown woman and talking through her problems with the other woman, she starts telling her kid to punch the other woman in the face.

Maybe my standards are just too high, but I'm dumbfounded that we still live in societies where people conduct themselves in these ways.

Don't get me wrong, if someone punches you then you have every right to defend yourself, but if everyone simply aimed to never throw the first punch in a fight through their entire lives the world would be a much better place.
If you have exhausted every avenue of discussion with someone and are still getting nowhere, be the bigger person and walk away.

I can already see the downvotes but idc

I view fighting as such a medieval means of entertainment really. I mean the human body can only take so much, and to see people get broken noses, get teeth knocked out, kicked in the face and to have 10-20 people there just enjoying that shit.. to me thats disgusting and medieval.. No effort to even stop it. Now as you said, if someone punches me in the face, no shit im going to retaliate but honestly its between me and that person. Not the whole internet and all the people around us to get a pleasure out of.

Now if youre someone who likes to watch fights, I dont think any less of you but I just have to ask. Why? Why? Why?

Why would i call the police right away? The cops going to take a few moments to get there. And i would instantly record it and after the fight i would call the cops and when they get their i have proof of what happened. Also i enjoy watching people fight. Boxing isn't very different than street fighting but it is considered a source of entertainment and a sport so why isn't street fighting?

If it's something serious and they've been having a rivalry just let it happen, only way to stop a rivalry is a fight, not words.

I agree 100%, why try and stop a fight and risk getting your self hurt and then probably joining in?

In my opinion (And i know im risking hate here but idc lol) I think the person recording the fight is just as bad as the people in the fight. if your willing to record the whole thing and post it all over your social media, You should be just as prepared for hate as the two fighting would

That's utter codswallop, if you believe that then you're deluded. There are other avenues, such as just letting the grudge go?

Why are teens so desperate to scrap, never once have I had a fight, nor do I intend to either. As for the person who said Boxing is a sport and isn't different to street fighting, you're a fool, Boxing is controlled sport. They don't kick each other in the head, stamp on each other, they have gloves, they stop the fights...

Fighting is repulsive lads, it's for the mentally weak. Remember that.

I am saying if the fight is about something personal so for example John insulted Bob's mum and whines him up that he's Mum is dead, then leave it be. Bob wants revenge you know?

As a society we generally enjoy violence anyway so you can't really be surprised when people don't like stopping fights and try to watch.

Anyone who initiates a fight over something like that further proves Fieldings statement. "Fighting is repulsive lads, it's for the mentally weak.".
