Boxing? Hello, I'm a 17 year old female. Who is interested in taking boxing class.
I've heard somewhere that if you take boxing classes and get into a street fight, you'll be arrested and charged with weapon possession because they would consider your fists as a weapon. Is this true? Or am I the only one that has heard about this?
Another thing is, I get into a lot of physical fights, so if what I said above is true exactly what do you think would happen to me?
Thank you.

Jersey's a rough place. Go kick some ass. I've never heard of a body part being considered a concealed weapon. If there were so... Well, I won't say it. *laughs* ]
Interesting question. I have heard something similar before, but I'm not sure if it applies everywhere. I would suggest speaking to an instructor or asking someone in law enforcement. They would be better advised as to the laws in your state and could give you a more detailed answer. ]
eh sure take the lessons, isnt getting arrested/fined better then getting your ass kicked? think about that one. ]
in some states taking boxing or martial arts would be charged as a concealed weapon. i'd ask the trainer for specifics before yo take it. <3 ]
boxing is for people who have cockfighting fetishes.
they're too easy to take out. so as far as i am concerned, you wouldn't be a dangerous weapon. you should try taking army combatives. the key to every fight: control of the opponent's hands, and his head.
back to the nonexistent point. no.

Well, I've never heard of a boxer being arrested under the charge of weapon possession. I suppose it's not entirely outside the realm of possibility.
Here's the thing: if you go starting fights, and you DO have hand-to-hand combat training (boxing, martial arts, etc), you'll probably get harsher justice from the law. That's reasonable to expect.
I would recommend that you stop getting in to fights; that's going to get you arrested on day anyway, boxing or no boxing. Don't use physical violence unless absolutely necessary; there's no shame in walking away from a fight. Especially when it keeps you out of jail. ]
