Great stuff, RC. Your son has a great father and role model.
I don't know about this...police wanted to get me to a counsel with him at a hospital and I refused. My son is now very very cocky, he isn't really afraid of anything and I wonder if this could be a problem when he gets older. Not sure if this has something to do with the incident or just his age but it could be related.
It is difficult to talk about stuff like that to people who don't know you. I know my stories sometimes sound a little bit like...stories and my wife told me to stop telling you guys this stuff (she reads from time to time, when she is bored... 
) but I feel a strong connection to you guys...shared hobbies and all. 
There is an ignore feature...

Re: Guy gets mad at loud Lamborghini
RC: I also make a vital mistake (according to my trainer): I should train muscle groups much better, I need to build up muscle mass and power for better effectivity. I do not do that, this is why I hurt myself.
RC:For Krav Maga, it is also important that you have power. I know that many say that too many muscles slow you down and make you slow or even tired faster but the truth is, in Krav Maga muscles and power are a huge advantage. We once witnessed a full contact Krav Maga demonstrations, both guys were almost 1,90 m and huge, real life Schwarzeneggers.

Short of your life or family being threaten, the smart individual walks away.
In Krav Mage, the first thing you learn is to...avoid a fight. So yes, I should actually train more (muscles, you need brute force) but since I'm not working in law enforcement/etc., I think I can relax.
It's nice to see a little reality on the internet. (ego's usually get in the way) The 3 most important things to learn from this whole thread, build muscle (naturally and correctly, unlike most guy's today), avoid hassle's, and relax. Get a gym membership, train intelligently, buy some comfortable walking shoes and use them, and lighten up about the Jason Bourne stuff.
I used to kid Stradale about his gun/home defense exuberance, I would say the same with self-defence.

Very well said. 
The Jason Bourne stuff gets you hurt or killed. I love watching it in movies though.

Trust me such a situation can give a kid a lot of respect for his dad. As I've told you guys before all my life my dad has taken me and my brother hunting and fishing. Once we were leaving a hunting trip rather late and it was getting dark, when we leave the countryside my father always leaves one of our shotguns in reach just in case, because they can be very lonely roads to get to the hunting sites. Well one time we were leaving on a small trail and it was getting dark a two guys on a bike cut us off and walked to the truck with knives in their hands, my father opened the door and pointed the gun at the guy that was on our side of the truck, he told him that if the touched the door his sons were in he was going to blow him apart. The guys ran off and dissapeared. After that my dad gave us a long lecture about safety on those kinds of situation and how you should always be prepared and take care of your family. That gave me and my brother massive respect for our dad and the way he handled the situation.
Many people say guns and that kind of activity are very unsafe but if you use them under the right frame of mind they are no more dangerous than a kitchen knife, I suppose the same could be said about martial arts. I've known how to take apart a gun or shotgun and clean it since i was about 10 or 12, always safely and with care and nobody in our family has ever had a gun related accident.
RC the situation you were in could be considered similar, you just make sure you explain to you son when and how ones strengths should be used. Also on the cockyness thing, I find it's better to not give away ones strenghts and weaknesses. Anytime someone asks me if i'm good at something (even if i'm really darn good at it) I'll say im ok, but never give it all away.
Re: Guy gets mad at loud Lamborghini
I'm not a friend of guns. Our army instructor always told us that each gun goes off by itself at least once in a lifetime, so we should always handle it with the utmost care possible. Well..he actually meant by accident but to teach us respect, he put the fright into us, which was a good thing. We always handled our weapons always with respect and caution and we never had an accident. Well...once...but this was pure stupidity and you can't really fight that.

As I used to say to my soldiers when I was an officer and instructor: "Your empty weapon is the weapon that will kill you". Meaning that if you treat your weapon as loaded even when its empty, you will always be safe.
