Have you ever been in a fist-fight with someone of another race?

Question

If so, was it for racial reasons or just because of a heated confrontation between two people? Did you have the upper hand or did the other person? And do you believe race or ethnicity is a factor when it comes to "winning" and "losing" a fight/physical altercation? Why or why not?

Answer 1

I got into a fight with a Black American on the west coast for accidentally stepping on his shoes.  I apologized but I guess he didn't care to accept my apology.  He told me that he would shoot me repeatedly and started calling me various names until I eventually got tired of it and punched him in his face.  We fought for only a few minutes as he got tired quickly because he was out of shape I guess.  Oh well..

Answer 2

I've been in fights with guys from all sorts of races, but never for racial reasons. I just like fighting. And I win every time. Once again, it has nothing to do with my race. It's because I'm tough.

Answer 3

No I never been in a fist fight period.  

Answer 4

Yes I have. I fought a black guy, because I disrespected him. I didn't do it on purpose but I can see how it could be taken that way. I don't believe fighting has anything to do with your race. It all about talent and if you have the ability to read your opponent.

Technically he won, but I didn't exactly fight back. I was watching TV and he sucker punched me in the temple. It didn't particularly hurt so I didn't get mad enough to punch back. Though I did get a pretty wicked smile going, made his friends back up at least.

Once he had calmed down he pretty much begged me to not turn him in for it, and I really didn't think I had a reason to. I mean c'mon I talked some **** and so did he, he just needed an outlet. It was settled when he threw the punch, he stayed out of my way from then on and I didn't make any real effort to get in his.
