The following is an excerpt taken from Tashida Kom’s guide, Self-Defense Tactics 101.
Underestimating Your Attacker: A Fatal Mistake
Always expect the unexpected when it comes to an assailant, and never underestimate the actions a person will take in order to hurt you. Being lulled into a false sense of security or dismissing potentially threatening behavior can be a deadly miscalculation.
In most cases, you will see some indicator that a person intends to do you harm. This may start with a vocal cue, threatening posture, or a physical advance in your direction. While a surprise attack is possible, being aware of your surroundings can often prevent such a circumstance.
The biggest failure in a self-defense scenario is not identifying that an attack is about to take place. The second critical failure is underestimating an opponent when engaging them in combat.
You must assume that any encounter can be life-threatening. What does not kill you may maim you for life or leave you severely scarred.
Never drop your guard!
Make your defenses such that you give your opponent no openings. Do not stop fighting until your opponent is incapable of inflicting harm upon you. Always opt to safely flee if the possibility exists, otherwise do everything in your power to neutralize your attacker.
Be aware, even if your assailant is rendered unconscious, there is no telling how long it may take until they revive—always assume it will be sooner than you expect.

Uh oh. Looks like the fight isn’t over yet!
Honestly, she should know better and kept on beating her. :p
Sorry, but
Plot stupid == lazy writing
Making the plot move by having smart people who know better repeatedly do stupid things is a flaw.
“Having smart people who know better repeatedly do stupid things”
Madison literally just smashed that woman’s head with a toilet septic lid and watched her drop. LOL Seriously, what did you expect her to do after that? Beat up on a downed perp, possibly kill her, and go to jail for excessive force, just like what would happen in real life?
Guess this is a case where the character’s smarter than some of the people reading the comic XD
Make sure she was down and tie her up would’ve been a good start.
I warned you, Madison. Double tap that bitch!
Everyone’s getting all beaten and bloody, clearly with more to come.
OK, Well that finally did her I………OH, SPOKE TOO SOON! 😱😱😱😱
This lady’s like the Energizer Bunny.
She just keeps on going and going and going…
Real world advice: if you think it is perfectly safe to walk away it might, MUGHT be safe to run.
Surprised to see Madison actually complimenting Belanie. She doesn’t hand those out too often.
That one eye may be open, but that doesn’t mean anyone is home.
My hat is off too whoever designed/made that Slutwear top. All of this extreme motion and it has stayed firmly anchored just beneath the nipple line. I don’t discount the fact that Madison has it overstuffed, but that’s some tenacious fabric. Spandex perhaps?
“My hat is off too…”
To, damn it. not “Too”. [Freaking slow fingers. Grumble, grumble.]
