I’m not going to ask why you’re fighting twenty children. That’s your own business, although most reasons are as old as time itself:
1) They started it.
2) You flipped over the table while losing a Magic: The Gathering game, and damaged several rare cards.
3) They stole your woman.
4) You stole their woman.
5) You’ve had enough of their bullshit.
Whether you’re a good man who was in the wrong place at the wrong time, or a dangerous maniac, we here at Cracked want to help. That’s why we’ve consulted with the experts (who did not wish to be named) on how to maximize your odds of winning a fight against twenty children. Follow these guidelines, and your opponents will wish they were never born 6 or 7 years ago.
__
Use an appropriate technique. Modern mixed martial arts are geared almost exclusively towards one on one combat, and are not designed to take on multiple tiny aggressors. As a grown adult, you could be fairly assured of absolutely destroying a 7 year old if you took him to the floor for a ground and pound. But by doing so you’d expose your back and head to his peers. Your best bet is to stay on your feet and use striking techniques. Karate is one good choice - it was originally designed in the 1600’s for use by unarmed Japanese day care workers.
Be aware of the terrain. By default, you’re going to have a height advantage against twenty children, but be sure you don’t cede it. Avoid fighting around picnic tables, monkey bars, or anything with which a particularly daring child could launch an aerial attack. The ideal situation is fighting children who are trapped in a ditch below you.
Stay mobile. Unless you’re extremely lucky and find yourself fighting twenty infants, you’re going to be at a mobility disadvantage when fighting a large group of children. You must avoid becoming surrounded at all costs. Keep moving, and always trying to position the bulk of children on one side of you. Circle, sidestep, and use tactical retreats to try and engage a single child at a time, where your reach and decades of muscular development should prove an advantage.
Speed. You want this fight to be over fast. Children have boundless amounts of energy, and you’ll tire quickly as the fight progresses. If you schedule your fights with twenty children in advance for some reason, I urge you to focus your pre-training regimen on cardiovascular conditioning and snorting eye-wateringly large amounts of cocaine.
Intimidation. Although I don’t expect you to be intimidated by the prospect of fighting twenty children - given the self-confidence that comes with maturity - remember that intimidation is a two way street. Twenty is a big number, and if that many children lose their fear of you, watch out. Use fierce roars and displays of strength to frighten the children. When taunting, remember that children are almost comically stupid, and won’t understand any of your more creative taunts. You won’t intimidate anyone if you have to explain three times specifically what you did to their mother last night.
Go for the leader first. Assuming the twenty children lack military training, they’re going to behave more like a pack of animals than a cohesive group. By default, pack animals will defer to an alpha leader, and if you manage to subdue that child, the rest of the pack will quickly lose their will to fight. In some cases the leader will be actively giving orders and therefore easy to identify. Other times they’ll be harder to pick out. In those cases, go for the tallest one, or the one with the most Pokemon on their clothing. Once the alpha child is lying in a heap, you’ve got a narrow window of intimidation open while the children regroup. I’d recommend lifting his body over your head and screaming yourself hoarse. That’s the smart veteran move.
Groin attacks. In general the crotch is a small, easily defensible target, and not typically a factor in most fights at a reasonably professional level. That said, when children are attacked by an adult, they’re rarely going to respond professionally. Again, if you have forewarning that you’ll soon be coming to blows with twenty children, absolutely wear a cup. If you do get struck in the groin, under no circumstances should you place your hand on your genitals to massage away the pain - touching your privates while surrounded by minors is illegal in many states, and frowned upon in the rest.
Weapons. I’d suggest refraining from using weapons, and not just because of the harsh mandatory minimum sentencing laws that are a sad reality in this modern age. By bringing a weapon you might prompt the children to bring weapons as well. This kind of escalation plays against you. Whereas before you could fairly safely absorb several dozen tiny little punches before being incapacitated, you’re now at risk of being dropped with a single lucky strike. If a child with a pair of safety scissors gets at your Achilles tendon (the groin of the ankle) then you’re cooked buddy.
Let the last one walk away. In Professional Twenty-Child-Fighting Leagues this is now tradition, but even during raw, underground twenty child street-fights it serves an important purpose. By letting that child spread word of your great strength and not-to-be-fucked-withedness amongst the other children of the area, you can ensure that it will be a long time indeed before someone else mewls at you that you’re hogging the swings.

LOL, I have in fact first hand experience in this situation, I was 17 pitted against 15 kids around the ages of 13 and 14 that had challenged me. My personal picks are definitely go for the leader/biggest one, make an example of at least one, and definitely stay mobile! In my case the biggest fat kid (he was huge for his age, easily 250 pounds) sat on me, rendering me for a while unable to defend myself against an onslaught of dead arms/legs. Keep in mind I was 6ft3, 200 pounds.
Disclaimer: no kids were hospitalised, and no hits to the face or stomach were allowed, just dead arms and legs

September 2nd, 2008 at 11:40 pm
and i think that the website that tells you how many children you could take is flawed because mine said i could only take 28
September 2nd, 2008 at 11:36 pm
you left out the fact that even when you don’t come to the fight with a weapon that the child itself could be used as some sort of human propelled projectile or just as a blunt weapon once subdued.
September 2nd, 2008 at 3:59 pm
Another piece of advice, dont be afraid to fight dirty. Whenever I’m fighting (children or adults) I do anything I can to win, eye poking, biting, leg sweeps (very effective on children due to their poor balance), hitting them when they are down and the like. The more pain you can inflict, the better.
September 2nd, 2008 at 2:41 am
I’m currently 3-12 in a amateur 20 child fighting league, after reading this article I’m confident of improving to atleast .500 before thanksgiving, thanks!
September 2nd, 2008 at 2:35 am
If the kids are retarded, THAT changes the whole dynamic. You can’t intimidate them; there will be no leader; kicking them in the groin will just make them more frantic; and you won’t be able to let the last one walk away. They’ll be like 20 energizer bunnies comin’ at yo’ ass.

Also, in response to some other suggestions I find that knees can b driven into faces much more easily and it brings more satisfaction. Why kick them when you can knee their faces off,the blood and pained screams of their peers should be enough to startle them..If their is a clear leader I recommend taking him (or her) down in ONE hit, a solid straight punch to the face, or grabbing the hair of back of the head and knee thier face in. Once you have debilitated them in a SINGLE blow left the leader over your head and smash them down onto your knees, breaking them like Bane broke Batman. I recommend screaming your own name or a a glorifying remark “I WILL DESTROY YOU!” works well. Then make sure to flaunt the crumpled leaders’ body to the rest of the group and throw the lifeless form to the gound as disdainfully as you can muster. If this doesn’t take the fight out of the little bastards remember that elbow strikes counter biters and clampers and knees to the face allow you to maintain more balance and do much more damage than kicking. Although an occasionall straight kick (a squatting motion using the bottom of your foot to push them away) can help to break the uniformity and concentration. EXCELSIOR!
August 27th, 2008 at 3:11 pm
Bill I am EXTREEMLY thankful for your suggestion. I struggle most with biters as they all also turn into clampers. It’s like trying to tear leaches loose..or fighting a swarm of the undead of horrifically small stature. I found that elbows to the base of the neck (although temporarily leaving your head and face vulnerable) do an excellent job of ending biting. All it takes is that broken neck sound once and they realize that biting is a poor tactic. Happy hunting!

Yes I agree you have to find one that is suitable for use as a weapon. look for one with sharp pointy elbows and knees
August 25th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
Dude, you lost it at “Take out the leader first”. Wrong!
You grab the leader by the ankles and swing him around, using him as a club against the others.
He will scream and squeal like a child, which will terrify and demoralize the rest.
I consider this basic knowedge, and you failed the test.

Being a 1st grade teacher I’m usually looking over my back all the time, with the exception of my own class due to proper brain washing techniques administered daily during calendar/circle time. But when out on the play ground child gangs are everywhere. Normally I would hang around the monkey bars, but after reading this, I’ll spend my time in the field and brave the balls while protecting my own. I’m so lucky I read this. Thank you so much. I think I’ll post this in my classroom on the walls so I can go over this gang bang style fighting and have these techniques fresh in my mind.

With the growing escalation of violent children caused by rampant angry fucking (its been proven that the emotions during conception pass on to the child) and religion being proven wrong at a staggering rate, morality becomes an issue.
In the not so distant future children may cause a total collapse in society. If you have children, beat them if they misbehave. This also plays a part, since too many stupid fucking parents wont hit their kids, and are too lazy to teach them any better.

You have inspired me to wear a cup everywhere I go, so I may no be caught unaware by TWENTY CHILDREN, and that’s from a girl. I don’t even need a cup, but I trust your instinct on this.
I’d also suggest a certain bit of parting sign language to the child allowed to leave relatively unscathed; the classic two fingers pointing at your eyes, and then at him. To close, continue watching him, without moving as he runs away. Do not stop until he can no longer see you.
Your legend will live on.

As with what timsgm said, you really do need earplugs. My 5-year-old cousin shrieked so loud and so shrill that, I kid you not, a glacier calved from over 300 feet away. Either bring the earplugs or make sure you punch the little girls in the throat. No mercy for female children!
August 21st, 2008 at 3:35 pm

Okay this actually happens… maybe its just my luck. A couple years ago I was on my way to a Halloween party dressed as a 6 foot piece of cheese and I kid you not I was attacked by around 15 children. After one of them yelled “GET THE CHEESE!!!” 3 or 4 clusters of kids ran at me from different houses on the street and started attacking me. Luckily I ran for my life and my momentum overpowered them without causing any damage. Luckily cracked hadn’t published his guide or I could be facing some angry parents/jail time and stories of mythical cheese monsters may have taken their place in children’s folklore.

while comprehensive on a fight with 20 children over one reason, this guide does not help me. If I get in a fight with 40+ children because they stole my woman and I THEN flip a table over, do the same rules apply? I’m sure I’m not the only person with this problem.
August 20th, 2008 at 1:01 pm
Here’s a conversation a friend and I had on your article:
clokwork7orange3 (11:55:41 AM): ok, well i agreed with most everything that was said. my only thought was this…
clokwork7orange3 (11:56:28 AM): in the vast and extensive training that i’ve received for such occasions as this is what i think can be done differently.
clokwork7orange3 (11:58:26 AM): once you get to the point where you have singled out the leader and have beating them to the ground “you must make a show if this. Do some rather horrible things to this child”. Grab the beaten meat sack by its ankles and drag it from the bloodied earth. Begin to swing the swollen and damaged bone sack in the air.
clokwork7orange3 (11:59:36 AM): while your doing this ” now this is the important part” begin to hit the others with this festering vomit sack. In doing this not only have you set a president for visual intimidation, but you are now taking out others with this meaty weapon.
clokwork7orange3 (12:00:20 PM): now you tell me, does this not make for a much more effective and utilitarian intimidation display?
clokwork7orange3 (12:01:35 PM): i think the answer is clear
FrankDawg48 (1:01:51 PM): im with you on that on bruva
clokwork7orange3 (1:05:11 PM): as i thought you would be
FrankDawg48 (1:05:42 PM): indeed master baggins
FrankDawg48 (1:07:00 PM): i, however, am also of the opinion that a good “scare tactic” such as soiling one’s self to throw the enemy off guard and/or into hysterical laughter is a good way to get the upper hand on a crowd of juvenile delinquents
clokwork7orange3 (1:07:37 PM): i can see that working because of the age range we would be dealing with
FrankDawg48 (1:08:34 PM): correct
FrankDawg48 (1:10:55 PM): another “tactic” which would throw the enemy off guard and allow you to keep clean clothes and a portion of your well earned respect and dignity woudl be to throw out pottie humor words, such as “farts,” turdie nuggets” “butt chocolate” and “poopies” could also provide a different yet equally as powerful a diversion to said baddies
clokwork7orange3 (1:13:40 PM): i don’t know if i’m on board with you on that one. In the heat of the battle i’m not sure that effective humor would be timely enough or heard. I think the visual of the other one would be more effective. Having that said its not really my style, but i can see how it could work. I think that possibly candy thrown on the ground could work. It would be almost like throwing sand in a standard fight. both ways the opponent is blinded.
FrankDawg48 (1:15:55 PM): ah, your point is well spoken sir. an effective “candy throw” so to speak could blind the assailants that are struck in the orbital sockets and tempt the others to scour for confectionery treats rather than join in the battle. its all comes down to the “fight or flight” mentality
clokwork7orange3 (1:18:11 PM): yes, exactly
clokwork7orange3 (1:38:11 PM): i’ve got nothing
clokwork7orange3 (1:38:28 PM): hey it one of these fights is it a “keep what you kill” type thing?
FrankDawg48 (1:38:26 PM): as do i
FrankDawg48 (1:38:38 PM): i imagine so, yes
clokwork7orange3 (1:38:43 PM): its been a while since i’ve looked over the rules
FrankDawg48 (1:38:49 PM): right
clokwork7orange3 (1:38:53 PM): normally just do street rules.
FrankDawg48 (1:39:05 PM): indeed
clokwork7orange3 (1:39:13 PM): i say this because with how things are today those kids probably have more money on them then i do
clokwork7orange3 (1:39:19 PM): besides having psp’s and cellphones
FrankDawg48 (1:40:22 PM): agreed
FrankDawg48 (1:40:42 PM): which brings me to my next point
FrankDawg48 (1:42:33 PM): the threat of danger to said baddies technological entertainment devices (by either action or verbal threat - like pissing in their pockets where said technology resides or threatening to) could also be yet another alternative to use in decimating the bastard children of rich yuppie scum
clokwork7orange3 (1:44:44 PM): yes, and as satisfying as it would to destroy those symbols of yuppieizm i would rather collect them to use to my own ends. But thats just me. i can see just as easily destroying them for pure satisfaction.
FrankDawg48 (1:46:43 PM): indeed. im of the opinion of the old addage “to the victor go the spoils”. keeping said technology would indeed be a bigger slap to the proverbial face of said yuppie spawn, therefore adding insult to injury. what a delight

My response regarding midgets.
I was browsing over Cracked.com, perhaps the greatest website ever, when I happened upon this article. It is an article detailing how to win a fight against twenty children (duh). I found it helpful and now know how to properly dispose of my nephews should the need ever arise (which it does about once a day.) However, reading the comments on the article, I realized that children aren’t really the threat, midgets are. And an article as to how to defeat twenty midgets was called for.
Children can easily be subdue by dropping certain pills (say Valium) into their sippy cups or traumatized by telling them Tinky Winky (the homosexual teletubby) has been thrown off a cliff by fundamentalist Christians. There is no need for violence there. However, midgets are a different story. They are vicious adults trapped inside the bodies of children. You see them everywhere, in circus, at strip clubs, and at Toys R’ Us pretending to be the cute little children that they are not. They have even infiltrated our movie industry. And I for one have had enough! It is only a matter of time before there is a midget apocalypse and you find yourself having to stave of twenty midgets at a time on a day-to-day basis. Here are some useful advice on just that.
1. Prepare yourself mentally and physically. They may approach you pretending to be children but remember most children don’t have beards, boobs, or a unicycle. You may need to create flashcards and playing the game ‘Midget or Child’ in order to learn how to decipher the difference. And while playing the game you may need to practice standing. Because once they get you on your knees or back, you may be raped with a balloon dog or beaten to a bloody pulp depending on their mood.
2. Cannibalism. Well, it’s not really cannibalism when midgets are generally considered a sub-species. And besides they are probably eating your aborted fetuses for nourishment. And what better way to strike fear into their hearts than to be seen roasting a whole midget over a campfire? Cap the meal off with a Dr. Pepper and s’mores and you’re good to go.
3. Play dirty. Unlike fighting with children, yo’ momma jokes are quite effective with midgets as are jokes about their minuscule penis. Nothing gets them more riled up then insinuations about their masculinity or mothers. Also a bowling ball might prove effective as they are somewhat like pins especially if they have you trapped in an alley.
4. If all else fails, run. But don’t climb up in a tree. Midgets despite their stumpy legs are excellent climbers. And avoid small cars such as bugs and hybrids, chances are the owners are midgets themselves or are midget sympathizers. And no, you are not a coward for running, we all know how ferocious midgets can be. It is only a matter of time before they take over the world. But hopefully, this article will be vital to staving off midget takeover.
I wish you luck my friend in all midget fighting endeavors. And remember to stand TALL.
This article by Yen does not represent the views of Yen Huynh, Cracked.com, or Verne Troyer. And none of the three will accept responsibility for injured or eaten midgets (especially Yen and her broke ass).

Screw the laws. Bring an AK-47. Make sure to set it for single fire so that you have to use a “one shot, one kill” approach. If you do run out of ammo, the stock will allow you to bash their bratty little skulls in. Remember: CHILDREN ARE TO BE EATEN AND NOT HEARD!

The most important thing to know is that unless you’re in an organized, sanctioned Child Fighting bout, your goal is to survive. Do not hold prisoners and don’t believe in rules. you can poke out an eye and stop a child dead in it’s tracks long enough t come back to it. you can stop their Baby Gap shoes and get them off of you. Pushing works great, they often start crying and then you have the psychological edge, keeping them off balance not unlike the taunting that Rocky did to Ivan Drago in Rocky IV. Don’t keep to honor here, it’s you or them, and you don’t get points for being a nice guy, only a body bag. Also, keep your footing. Kick above the knee only when you are completely free. One great looking axe kick could cost you the fight if an opportunistic 3rd grader can kick out your other knee while your doing your Chow Yung Fat impression. Your goal is to win. You keep your center low, you deal with them, and you ignore the pain. Soon, they will be your enemy no more.
August 19th, 2008 at 9:18 pm
lol, this article is funny. But like in Hostel the movie, gangster are killed by a bunch of kids with baseball bat.
August 19th, 2008 at 8:51 pm
best way to defeat them quickly is to pick up one child by the feet and swing that one around, taking out the others with the kid you are swinging like a medieval flail or mace.
August 19th, 2008 at 8:45 pm
That’s right you little bastards! “oh I’m little and under protection from abuse by the law.” Well those peices of crap are gonna get owned! kids are creepy anyways.

August 19th, 2008 at 8:00 pm
So true with attacking the alpha leader first up. Kids up til around 16 are disorganised and have a peer pressure mentality where they will do stupid things, like attacking an armed adult without fear or regard for consequences.
Defend yourself first from being swamped, try to get to the leader, and once you have them, focus your attention on the leader. Stun, disable and finish in 3 quick shots if you can (this is where some good martial arts training will really help).
Once finished, get the leader to bleed (if you are good, you can usually produce blood in the finishing move anyway - anywhere in the face is usually good), smearing their blood on yourself and letting out a bloodlust scream will usually take all the fight out of most kids, and most will probably run away.
Also, you don’t want to do too many small hits before this, as being hit without disabling them most kids will find renewed strength and willingness to fight. Usually with groups larger than 6, there may also be other sub leaders. When taking the leader hostage (usually possible after the stun or disable shot), this should become apparent, as 2-3 other kids will try to rally and take over. Target these kids (after the blood smear and taunt) before they can rally together the others.
When most people see controled aggression followed by a loud noise and blood, they will usually lose all confidence/morale. After this, it’s just a clean up operation, and you can have some fun with the few kids stupid or scared enough to hang around.
Happy hunting.

Bucholz, just how high were you when you thought up this piece?
August 19th, 2008 at 5:42 pm
You people jest, but the threat is very real in some third world countries.
A couple more quick pointers: Throwing a handful of loose change at them will cause dissarray and infighting as they scramble for the coins, giving you a chance to pick off a few of the weaker ones while they have their backs to you. Also, do not be afraid to stoop to their level and quickly scoop up a handful of sand or dirt and fling it into their beady little eyes. A short, blind opponent is much easier to kick in the face.

This article would have been helpful 10 years ago when I was a puppeteer. The most children I’ve ever had to take on at once was 12 kids (ages 7-12) while I was wearing an 8 foot tall purple monster puppet.
And my favorite technique was what I called the “grab and squeeze.” You grab their little wrists and squeeze until you can feel the two forearm bones grind together. It usually doesn’t leave a mark.

Everyone is missing the point here, it says not to bring weapons but the child itself becomes the weapon and here is how: more than likely these kids are smart enough to form a circle attack if they don’t then you could easily pummel them one on one all day. So if you have a circle attack grab the tallest child by the feet and just start spinning. This will turn that first kid into a mace like weapon with his head as the blunt object as you spin move towards the edge of the circle and make light work of the young jerks!

When I was 15 I had a crazy friend named Jimbo. He would just do random, crazy shit that was (sometimes) hilarious. I’ll never forget one time we pulled into a mall and he was driving his mom’s car. Both of us had learner’s permits. He pulls the car up real slow next to a group of about 15-20 kids skateboarding on the sidewalk. He rolls down his window and takes off his sunglasses. He looks around at all the kids and then says: “Five bucks a head. All you against me.” The look on these kid’s faces was priceless. You could tell them some of them were doing the math. Others turned white and looked like they were going to shit their pants. One of them finally said: “No way you fucking psycho!”. As we drove off we were laughing so hard we were rolling. I looked back and saw all the kids talking to each other and some grabbed their boards and took off. You had to have been there to appreciate it. One of the funniest goddamn things I’ve ever seen in my life.

Speaking from sad experience your advice to stay mobile may in fact be your undoing. Although a fluid motion promotes efficient kid combat it leaves you open to distraction. Don’t forget, they do, and will, cry. I really advise getting your back against a wall and trying to take them one on one if possible. I got 27 on the test link as well, which is BS because I know I can’t handle three. And yes, do not bring a weapon! They will find it and turn it against you. Maybe if you bring a grandmother? Then again that will likely just add experience to the kids side.

i just do what i always do when surrounded
shit on my hands then show it to them
while they’re freaking, attack
if you can get any on them, they drop their guard then you have a decent chance
but I dunno, kids might reverse the strategy on me, then i’ll be covered in shit
but if somebody makes a video of it, that might be cool
fame is fame, right?

This is hilarious! But true! - This probably sounds like one of those things that could never really happen, and is really left mostly to jest. But believe me, it can happen. My husband and I were at a kid’s 4th birthday party recently, and my husband was chasing and goofing around with the kids. There were about 6 of them, and they seriously attacked him! They wrestled him to the ground and then began jumping on his belly, groin and - well, you can guess where else! One of them even put a napkin over his face, and began pounding his nose! Trying to be a good parental role model, of course he tried to be ‘gentle’ in getting them to stop beating him.. but he took a lickin’ before their parents realize they were seriously hurting him!

I would suggest picking up one of the taller, skinner kids and using him as a blunt object. This technique will give you the advantage of having a weapon, and will work as an intimidation technique.
August 19th, 2008 at 3:46 pm
Related to the weapons argument, it’s important that you keep any advantages fair to both sides. For instance, if the children are allowed to ride dogs and have sticks, then you should be allowed to breathe fire.

I was working with groups of 20 kids all summer long. This article could have saved me a lot of grief it I read it sooner.

I have a very large family, and I’m a very large guy, that can act extremely immature. This invariably means that all the small kids like to play and/or attack me. I have actually used many of these same skills when fighting children. Especially, the one about always moving. It works. I’ve never faced twenty, but ten is a definitely a number I’ve had to deal with.

You may find that clown suits scare some of the children… the only problem is that the rest will occasionally turn into a ravenous pack of lethal todlers. You can also carry a copy of the “Elefun the Elephant” game or maybe a kaleidoscope or lava lamp to entrance them… thats where the RPG’s come in. Aim for the center of the pack for the most damage.
August 19th, 2008 at 3:29 pm
You forgot to mention one very important thing. Little children love to bite and bite hard they can. I suggest a swift Donkey punch to the top of the head to shake those little fuckers loose.
August 19th, 2008 at 3:26 pm
That was really, really funny.

Thanks so much! After reading this article, I was, in fact swarmed by 20 children. THANKS, CRACKED.COM!

Maddox the Pirate would be so proud of this article.
August 19th, 2008 at 2:42 pm
Hilarious
August 19th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
It tells me 34, but I know from experience it’s more like 50.
August 19th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
I can take exactly 20, but I took the quiz honestly it seems.
August 19th, 2008 at 2:27 pm
LOL, easy. Just make your you have a 21 round clip (in case you miss one) LOL.

@mrpez
Oh yeah? I can take on 36.
August 19th, 2008 at 2:19 pm
I just bring an iron pipe to my fights. let them encircle you, and just spin around with the pipe at their eye level.
August 19th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
James Ballard, according to your website I can take on 27 five year olds!
August 19th, 2008 at 1:59 pm
I wish I’d had the weapons tip last month, I grabbed a pole to fend them off and I was forced into what was basically a sword fight, I barely made it out alive.
August 19th, 2008 at 1:40 pm
Awesome. I’ll be sure to reference this when I go to the playground in my ‘Neo’ gear.
August 19th, 2008 at 1:36 pm
Noodlepie54, of course there’s such a thing as a breast cup. It’s called an iron brassiere. That will teach the little bastards a lesson if they take a boob-shot.

Chemical warfare has always worked best for me. Threaten to infect them with cooties (non-directly of course).
August 19th, 2008 at 1:25 pm
If the your five-year-old beating club comes to, all you have to do is give them a good hard shove into the crowd, distracting not only your weapon but at least 5-6 others. I think Neil’s idea is the only thing I could remeber in a swarm.
August 19th, 2008 at 1:24 pm
Thank you so much. Now I guess I am ready to take on the 10 lil fuckers who challenged me last month.
August 19th, 2008 at 1:15 pm
Neil, assumptions are dangerous to make. What if your weapon comes to and begins to thrash and distract you while the munchkins begin kicking your ankles, timbering you and then beating you to death with their tiny fury? Only weapons that either never had, or no longer have sentience for me, thank you.
August 19th, 2008 at 12:51 pm
I always assumed the best strategy was to take out the nearest one first and then use his body to beat on the others.
August 19th, 2008 at 12:44 pm
Maddox is that you? I recognise this style of writing, very funny.
August 19th, 2008 at 12:37 pm
eat it, 5 year olds
August 19th, 2008 at 12:28 pm
If you want to fight a gang of armed kids come to Scotland, we have tons of them in Glasgow.
We had a 5 year old carjacker not that long ago.
August 19th, 2008 at 12:23 pm
I am in mid session of my training. cocaine is a hel of a drug.
all those kids at the park are gonna be in trouble. i swear their in a gang.
August 19th, 2008 at 12:13 pm
Here I come, Margaret, and I’m taking my pride back, too!
August 19th, 2008 at 12:11 pm
Nah, Ross, 20 midgets is a whole different ball game. They may be small, but they still have human minds, unlike children.
If some of you think this is a humour article, check out that link I posted above. The Little Threat is very real!
August 19th, 2008 at 11:58 am
This very thing happened to me last week. I told them they had to go to time out and then I pick them off one by one! Kids are so stupid!
