Good point...  but hey, if you're sober and they're drunk...  Your reflexes are likely to be better, so there might be 3 less chavs by the end of it.
It would be nice to think that, but with a sober person taking on a drunk, the drunk actually has an advantage.  It sounds crazy, I know.  THe problem is that when a drunk gets his adreneline going, that difference in reflex speed disapears.  However, the drunk still does not feel pain as well, so he is able to absorb much more punishment than a sober person.  Getting in a fight with a drunk is a dangerous prospect, and usually one to be avoided.
Good point...  unless you're good at head shots...  j/k

what I would have done:

I'd ask them to stop. If they wanted to start a fight, just back off if you don't think you can win. They may now be verbally assaulting you, but you at least you did something.

If they tried to physically harm the Arabic man, then it's time to step in and be ready to fight.

Drunk people may have slower reflexes, but they feel less pain. That is a definite advantage.

That's not really racism, that just sounds like stupidity, mixed with some excessive bear drinking. If they actually were sober, and said that shit, I'd agree.

As it is, drunk people say some of the dumbest most 'racist' shit ever.

If they were harassing me, I would change train cars when the train stops. A majority of Cityrail trains are 2 4-car ones joined together. In between the 2 'trains' is the train guard. All they'd have to do is phone the next major station and either the cops or cityrail transit officers would have a word to the guys harassing me.

Hell, if they were drunk then they'd be arrested.

Yeah i was gonna say that, sadly i wasnt packing any heat..but a gun could of escalated it more i think
Bah, a gun would shut those wankers up if you used properly. Suppose you're carrying it on you, and you want to prevent them from becoming violent. You don't pull it out and point it at someone, since that would certainly be unwarranted at that point. Perhaps you just adjust your position slightly so said firearm has "accidently" come into their view. Now the opposition knows you are armed without you behaving in a threatening manner, and will likely cease to screw with you.

If all they're doing is throwing shit, then no. If they actually took out a weapon, then yes. And "accidentally" letting it show might invite them to tackle before it could be drawn in self-defense.

I hate skinheads...particularly the neonazi type.  They call themselves patriots yet at the same time worship the very people who we were at war with (the nazis) some 65 years ago.  Go figure.

Heh, Wembley is a more or less Indian area. I'm surprised they didn't get their arse kicked before that. What a bunch of cunts, I guess when you're with your dad and more or less "alone" you can't do anything. Which is annoying. Also remember that's the reason they picked on you in the first place. I can assure you, if you were with your mates and if there were alot of non-whites on the train they wouldn't have said anything. Cowards at their best. I bet they were Chelsea fans.

You just let it go, you only get involved if people start getting hurt. It's generally not worth starting a fight.

You got it wrong, the OTHERS pointing a gun to them to make them shut up.

There are security guards on trains, not normally on the underground tho, they don't carry weapons and are normally old men and women...so they are not normally much help.

One of the most disgusting contributions to world fashion Britain has to offer. Unfortunately they sort of got it from our media.

Ya'll whine about chavs, I see them all the time. I don't get any problems from them, if anything they either just walk on or say alrite. Guess if you look like an easy target then that's your problem?
