Typically I wouldn't get involved in something like that. Not because of fear, but because it's none of my business and I wouldn't have all the facts to hand. No, you can't always wait until you've got the facts, but this wasn't a mugging or a robbery you thwarted. It was a bit of a punch up in a park over a girl.
Cue the "they made it his business by doing it in front of his precious little kiddly-winks" crappy mobbish justifications....
To your point, I think a responsible parent should be walking away with their kids; thus preventing any sort of spill over our collateral damage. Getting involved was needless and risky, and in some contexts can result in your kids being even more fucked up when they have to go to their fathers funeral and then grow up with out him.
I'm no better than them
Always iritates me when im in a park and got loutish kids swearing ad spitttig etc - again as soon as they get too yobish in front of me or the wee ones - they get told to move it along!!
just because you do, doesn't mean you should.
On that note id just like to wish u all a peaceful weekend

However, in and around Belfast (or, effectively, anywhere in NI) there's always the chance that the guy you confront is involved in some sort of paramilitary group and things can get very nasty, very quickly. Sad, but true as I found out once, many years ago. (It's ok, I lived to tell the tale and I'm still negotiating for the film rights)
I'm no coward, but I'd rather walk away than get involved these days.
Noisy wankers outside my house, though? Entirely different matter.
* edit * I would like to point out that 99.9% of us over here ARE NOT involved in gang warfare. But there's always the chance... @Adam_MD and @Dave_Mc, for example. Shifty looking and probably not to be trusted.
