So I'm now going to talk about how to get our of the choke hold, and what I would do. I really don't know a whole lot in this area, as I never had martial arts training, except taking my kids to practice, and never been in the miltary. I have lived in a gang infested area when I was a kid to my teen years, and lucky for me I was bussed out of the area otherwise I'm sure I would have been a gang-banger too, but I have had my share of fights with gang bangers coming home, or visiting my grandma's house in East Los Angeles and hanging out in the summers. For gang-banging fighting and being considered tough is one of the few ways they can gain respect. In Tijuana, if you are going to become a victim of a choke hold. it will most likely come from a gang banger( cholo) either deported from the states, and now has to make his living doing low level crimes, drugs, and smuggling drugs and people across the border. I also recently found out that Tijuana has many cholo gang bangers too, from different gangs all over Tijuana, so be on the look out for gang members, and try not to let them get behind you.
A choke hold is very difficult to get out of, so the best defense is not to allow yourself to be put in that position. I talked to Ben, another of Burt's distinguished member, and asked him if he ever been mugged, as I wold have remembered, and he said he hasn't, and he has been all over Tiuana, and a perfect mugging victim, he is old with money. But he told me he felt he was followed once coming from REVO onto ART 123, by gang-bangers so he just turned around and walked straight pass them, and they rudely said, hey pops to him. He did exactly the right thing, he didn't allow them to get behind him. ( sorry we can't count this as a mugging, as he couldn't tell you for sure if those guys meant him harm)
Now if three gang-bangers are asking me for money especially if they have weapons, I'll probably hand it over to them, as I could always replace the money.( if they took my last $60 dollars before I fucked a provider, I might have to fight them, because that's just such a cruel thing to do to a addicted monger)
Seriously, if they put you in a choke hold, I think you have to fight, as choke holds are life threatening, and one of the reason why police agencies don't use them anymore, because a few people died when they struggled.
So next write up will be specific things to do including the most recommended things, like trying to separate yourself a little from the mugger by moving forward a little bit, and taking a fist and rolling it in a tight ball, swinging it forward, and then very hard right swing down into the BALLS of the mugger as hard as you can! He will let go.

Hey Padre, how did the gay dudes know for sure you weren't gay? It's been my experience that lot of gay guys think just about everybody is like them, and just in the closet, and having a wife means very little, as many gay or bi guys have wives?
And I agree with you not so much because of the smell, but those deep fried chickens being cooked on the street are dangerous to your health, it's a very unhealthy way to eat chicken.
