Let's see, images of one guy straddling another guy at the waist, restraining one of the downed guys arms, and beating the stuffing out of his head until he gives up or is knocked out.
This isn't "just" violence? You aren't talking to someone who's never seen this stuff. What skill and technique is there in getting a guy to submit by bashing his brains in?
Please do instruct... I'm willing to learn.
