Size first( how large of a human you are) and fear matter most to the individuals who "start Sh&t" in Puna. Most of the guys who start trouble are punks. They get fear all built up inside and they want a weak target. If your a big guy or in a group, no worries.
If you know how to carry yourself and your not out looking for trouble you'll be hard pressed to find trouble in Puna.
If you wanna fight? and you have a smart azz mouth?, I'm sure some "local" will "go" with you anytime. Fights, or a challenge to fight, are often said many different way's i.e.
1. "You like beef ?"- This is not asking you if you want a burger off the grill. This is asking if you have some sort of issue you'd like to resolve with your fist. This "may" happen one-on-one but rest assured if his friends or "cuzzins" are there your gonna get "jumped" on by all of them. Also expressed " Like scrap", "call you out" and many others.
Any confrontation is an esclation of events.
I'm saying, when some "idiot" looks at you and say's "What!" thats a challenge to fight, know this, thats either time for you to "put up" or "get out". Saying another word on your part just up's the "anty". After he challenges you with "What!", You get your stuff you pack the car, whatever the fug you need to do, you do, and leave at that point if you don't want to fight.
2. Don't "mad dog" people either. Thats when you stare or look at someone making eye contact without saying anything and not smilling.
If they ain't on fire don't stare at them, unless you know them or recognize them from church or work and they know your car.
3. If you see a group of young men hanging around sucking down beers, leave. I say leave unless you want trouble. Some people want trouble thats cool. I don't.
4. Numbers matter ! go in a group of 4 or 5 or 7, the more the better. Even if "Nate" is a "wimp", in a group of like 7 or 8 I'm "a bad Mo'Fo!" and saying outloud,
'we're leaving now lets go guys all nine of us' means we are all leaving as a group to the bad guys.
The best thing you can do is SMILE AND WAVE.
