    Damn how could i be so foolish?

    Always avoid knife fights when possible yo-yo, don't think your seagal or something because seagal would be hospitalised as well.

    Being a recovering drunk I give them more credit than that...While drunk I myself at least could take alot more pain, I may not have had the same movement and was a bit tipsy it however does not make you an idiot 'well not all times at least :D'..1 drunk guy maybe, 2 drunks pushing it, 3 and it's realy getting sticky. Even if all 3 were looking straight at the counter and nobody checking their back, to think you could get up, grab a chair, walk over to them, and hit all 3 over the head hard enough to nock them out is realy hoping for trouble. IMO

    You do this and you better beable to also fight dirty, for when the tables are turned.

    From the description the original post gave, these 3 guys can barely stand up. If they are that drunk they're really pushing hard to keep from passing out or blacking out.

    3 guys normally, 3 guys buzzed.. sure that would be hard and I'd think a lot harder on. But 3 guys on the brink of blacking out... no second guessing.

    Yes but alot of drunks will stumble while simple walking and bullshitting, even in this situation...When threatened you'd be suprised how straight they can become ;)

    I may try to quietly slip out and find one of those patrolling officers that hang around, or contact a local authority. The safety of people is always worth taking risks in my world. It is difficult to just simply sit by since you do not know when a situation can or will get out of hand and then there may not be an opportunity to do anything.

    Not sure how you emergency system works, but in the US they are not able to track you location VIA a cell phone.

    I would must likely stay out of the situation hoping the stupid coffee people gave them the money. After, I would make some joke to employees to cheer them up such as...

    "You guys think that was a robbery? How about I order another $5 coffee and then you look at me angry when I dont tip you. Now that's robbery. Seriously, I wasn't kidding, I want a refill."

    @Yo-Yo, then surely you can imagine guys that may be drunk that still have the energy to make a scene and a riot and robbing a store are not zombies that can be pushed over?

    And therefor once again i say to you:

    And when you wake up (hopefully) out of your coma or whatever in the hospital you would say:

    And i really thought it was easy to whack them out of the store with that metal chair only thing i didn't think of there where three of them and when i made the first swing to the nearest guy the second guy stabbed me in the neck.

    Damn how could i be so foolish?

    It's obvious what to do in that situation -- leave and find a Starbucks that isn't being robbed :rolleyes:

    I'm surprised he wouldn't watch the guys kill everyone in the store, and then after the men were convicted for murder, beg for them to not get the death penalty and then blame it on racial courts.

    Exactly! Why let robbers and frightened staff spoil your coffee? Like you say, there's a Starbucks everywhere. No need to stay in the noisy one. :cool:

    I know from my own personal experiences that once you reach a certain level of drunkeness you can appear to be energetic and crazy when literally 3 seconds later you fall over passed out.

    I also know how easy it is to get brave and stupid once you've reached that limit.. and how easy it is for someone to come up right behind you and knock you over. ;)

    Or three hours later.

    How do you know? Drunk people don't usually pass out until they sit or lay down.

    Let ask this - what if the guys started to actually attack the cashier? What would you do then?

    I would spin around in a circle and get them to walk into my fists of fury, because drunk guys will walk straight into that. After I knocked them all out I would draw penises on their faces and take pictures.

    Everyone is a hero until the get a knife pointed them, we them all simply 5hit ourselves.

    To start a good fight, please comment on the following:
