Most systems take the approach that the attack is already upon you. Okay they say and this is the solution. If in your mind the attack is imminent and you feel threatened, why wait. Offense and a meaningful disengagement is and always will be the more efficient and effective approach. Yes, knowing solutions is helpful and something to be used when you make a mistake, but if you can negate that situation before it happens why not do so. Your goal when encountering violence should be to survive , not to experience the thrill of look what I can do.

NEGATIONS:
Know the primary negations to entries Generally, if you prevent the attacker’s entry, you will be negating their planned assault.

360, inside redirect, double hammer, dive, stabbing, repelling, butterfly: double and single, checking, plucking , sweeping, wrapping. ( brushing and passing are considered enhancements ).
Know these, be comfortable with them and you will survive the majority of assaults.
Some negations are better done when striking at the same time.

CAREFUL WHAT YOU SAY
Don’t know but it seems everything you say is considered racist, politically incorrect or violent language. Even saying that  someone who is obviously  lying is in denial is now considered  violent language,  no accusations allowed even if true. Words like that in older generations would have been dealt with by shrugging and ignoring  The only violent language I know of is one that reflects a physical threat. This generation seems to be wishing for utopia. They should be careful what they wish for.
