I never post about self defense, but I had a question.
I know there's a lot of wisdom about the importance of choking people in real life situations because soe people might not ever give up, or tap out. So, what happens in a real fight if someone does tap out to an armbar, or the arm just breaks?
What's the proper way to disengage? Genuinely curious. Do you stand up and get the hell out? Do you wait for law enforcement and hope they don't get back up and try to attack you with a mangled limb? If you shred their ACL on a heel hook, but they still get up and try to fight, do you just re-engage if you have to?
I'd be scared injuring someone and then fleeing the scene. Would you just hold the position but do no further damage until help comes? I guess that could be 5 seconds or 5 minutes.
I'm sure there aren't hard and fast rules, but and I think a vascular restraint (blood choke) is the best option, and I'd tell the police I applied a vascular restraint, but if that's not in the cards, what do you do?
