>>The problem is physical overpowering by the strong man over the weaker man.

Yes and no. You have to have some "prison" or "Street" smarts.

The worst part is when you first get in. Guy whistling at you, just like in the movies. Ignore it and don't let it get to you.

1. First time there is *any* problem, you basically gotta creamate the fellow who is causing it. A good punch to the throat and a kick between the legs, followed by an dual earslap does wonders regardless of your size. After this you simply beat the man into the ground.

What you have done is gave notice not to mess with you. Size doesn't matter if you aim to incapacitiate your intended target. Remember, you aren't trying to go toe to toe cause the bigger man will win. (I'm 5'4 and people underestimate me.)

2. If something looks odd, then it is odd. Like if you feel you are being followed, you are. Turn around and get ready to rumble in the open. Don't wait, hit first and aim to incapacitate.

If you are followed into a room you are in trouble. Best to fight it out before going into room/shower/etc. Whatever you do, take someone down with you if you can't fight the whole gang.

3. Make "friends" quickly even if you don't officially join. Jesus walked with the sinners so it doesn't mean you can't either. Prison is a fertile ministry ground.

4. Got a problem with your cellmate? Well, they got to sleep some time. When they do, they'll wish they never touched you -- if they live.

5. When you fight, give it all you got. Don't be afraid, worst that can happen is you get killed (literally). Let it all out.

>> Add to it if the strong guy has a gang that holds the weak guy down.

Yea, this is a problem. You often will have to fight with a wall (preferrably a corner) to your back and just survive getting hit from all angles. Take out eyes and noses when you can. Worst case roll up into a tight little ball and yell your ass off. I did this once to resist arrest and it took 5 police using major pain compliance techniques to unroll me. It's very effective.

The rule of prison is very well known: don't take shit, and when someone gives it to you, make them eat it.

A good punch to the throat

So you rupture the guy's larnyx and he dies and you get twenty years added to your sentence. Is it worth it?

Your prison experience sounds like a Sylvester Stallone movie. Where the heck were you?

Your post 1-5 speaks the truth.

1. The worst part is when you first get in. Guy whistling at you, just like in the movies. Ignore it and don't let it get to you.

Yup and the guys at the end of the line is yelled "Hey Charlie, glad to see ya back!"

Exactly .
