He was going to be robbed, but the robber hadn't counted on that...

An ex-pro fighter killed after assaulting people

Hey, today on telegram i saw a video that was not very pleasant, an ex fighter (likely some sort of mentally ill person) was caught on video assaulting seemingly random people (sucker punches) later on the video cuts to him being shot in the back of the head by a young man. Would that young man be charged with murder?

Realistically what are my options?

Ok so for context I’m 17 years old, 6 feet tall, and 140 pounds, so I’m tall and skinny. There’s this guy, we’ll call him M, who’s also 17, he’s 6’4, and 215 pounds. M has made it very obvious that he doesn’t like me and has threatened to beat me up multiple times. On Friday my friend warned me that they heard him saying he was gonna wait for me by my car after school and beat the shit out of me, so I had one of my bigger more athletic friends drive me with his car over to mine, and I saw that he was waiting nearby. Now he wasn’t like right next to my car so I just got out real quick then hopped into mine and locked the doors, and I thought he’d left, but it turned out that he looped around the entire parking lot just to drive in front of me as I was about to leave to mouth shit at me and flick me off. I’m very grateful nothing happened but he totally was waiting there, and I’m scared of what would’ve happened if I wasn’t warned. I’ve already got pepper spray but idk what else I can do about this

I witnessed a pitbull attack and I need advice

I witnessed a pitbull attack a lady in a dog park. This incident really scared me as I have a lab myself and we often hike where unleashed shepherds and pitbulls (untrained with no off leash control) are a common hazard. I am a 5'2 woman (50kg) and while my dog is completely leash trained (no lunging, and doesn't bark/attack even when other dogs bark at him) I am concerned for my safety. I have heard of the choking method to break up a dog fight- linked below-

I need advice, will this be enough for me to defend myself or will I need tools? if tools what tools would you suggest? I am looking into getting into some kind of self defense coaching but I fear my small size means that most martial arts would not be beneficial. (I am new to this so please forgive me if this sounds stupid)

(I am fairly athletic and have high endurance (cardio) but I am not much arm strength)

Family member sucker punched me 4 times

Family member I live with (father) sucker punched me 4 times in my head while I had my back turned to him during an argument where I told him to keep his hands to himself and broke my orbital bone. Charged at me while my back was turned and my mother was in between us (I told her to please step away) ended up being sucker punched full force with my back and head facing my father, I never fell, I just retreated out the front door as he was still throwing punches at my head. Entire right side of my face was immediately black and blue bleeding etc and I cannot see out of my right eye. I’m diabetic so I already have incredibly blurry vision. Just curious, as someone who has a CCW, would I have been justified to defend myself ? He has been abusing me since I was a child hitting me.. He has always known I will never hit him back as he will call the cops as he always threatens after he hits me.. I also have diabetes, epilepsy, I’m a disabled veteran due to major spinal injury and he has 50 pounds and 7 inches on me. I pay rent here as well if that matters. I am 30 years old and he is 57. Thanks in advance.

Other than situational awareness/prevention what is the best defense?

There's a lot of hype about martial arts and stuff like that, but I find it hard to separate the overhyped or bullshit stuff from the legit stuff. I wonder what the best all-round self-defensething is to train in, to learn how to take a blow without reeling and needing precious seconds to recover, or Alternatively learn how to avoid getting hit, preferably both. I don't want to destroy people, I want to be able to GTFO ASAP in a situation against one or multiple determined attackers even when exhausted or something. And before you ask, yes I'm taking up running.
