Of course (trying to bring this back on subject) if someone was to make a claim on the internet like this,
how should we verify it?
In this case, I would think that police reports, Emergency room logs and the like would be the place to start. Anyone who claims to have had real world experience but can not show a police report is either lying or considers "real world experience" to be the type of thing I got into back in kindergarten. In the real world, the police get very, very interested in violent situations.
Case in point- Peytonn Quinn (his web page can be found at RMCAT.com). Quinn was attacked with a friend by three guys- at least one of whom had a baseball bat. Do you think that there was no paperwork after that situation? In fact, Quinn faced legal problems when the creeps that attacked him then lied to the police as to who started the ambush.
This is a case where a claim on the internet can be easily verified without having to resort to other people's statements. Police records are about as solid an evidence as you can get for this type of discussion. Anyone who would claim to be real experienced and then say his stories could not verified with the police should be treated like an incompetent fraud.
I do have real world experience...ALOT OF IT. Against real BADGUYS.
