"Sorry, but once you lay your hands on another person you should brace yourself for a fight."
I'll add that sometimes it's a fight to the death, regardless of the gender of either party. And just because one of us doesn't like someone, or that person's behavior, does not mean that we can kick that person's azz.
I don't condone the use of force or coercion but will defend my life and household with anything at my disposal.
#FactsMatter...your feelings not so much.
