i didnt mean in my post that id get back in someones face, i meant that id try to assist my partner and the guy out of there in a non-aggressive way. i know what you are talking about with the old way, and thats not my approach. some level of venting is alright to me, but it seems like a bit much was allowed here. of course this is an extreme situation where the guy clearly went off the deep end, but even in a "normal" heated situation i think there has to be somewhat of an attempt by the partner to help calm the situation and split things up. im not as trained as these guys are, so maybe im off here, plus i havent seen teh video, but ah ill just leave it at that until i can get the video working...
