The Catalyst

By Morgan Simoens, Reporter

Fight Club is one of the most interesting and intense movies of our time. Who wouldn’t want to start their own club where they have their own special turn to fight against anyone of their choice? Then again, it’s just a movie, and yet people have taken this movie and turned it into an invitation to start their very own local fight club in real life Aside from the fact that when showing signs of violence its illegal, there are also separate issues that can occur. The risk you take to fighting someone can turn into something way more violent and unexpected then you would have thought. With a certain punch to certain places with a precise amount of speed and power, you can easily kill someone with a single hit. That would lead into a legal issue and most likely turn to jail sentence Places like Texas and Oklahoma have been found with secluded clubs around back allies or shut down deserted buildings where people show up to brawl and then go home to their clueless families. Once busted you can face extended jail time or even probation, and fight clubs have taken a turn for the worse thus police are forced to begin taking away legal rights when they catch you throwing some punches after a long days work.
