It is important to be neutral when you are subject to verbal attacks. Even though it may seem counterproductive to do so, neutral body language is a good way to deter the attacker. Different responses have different implications. Here are some basic verbal self defense strategies. You can read on to discover which ones work for you. We will also provide some examples of ways to respond so that the situation doesn't escalate. Keep in mind that there is no single right way to respond to verbal attacks.

Principles of Imminence

Timing is a fundamental principle in self-defense. You could be considered preemptive or unjustified if you use defensive force too quickly or too late. Use defensive force only when absolutely necessary or in the face an imminent attack. The imminence rule aims to ensure you use only defensive force when you are faced with a legitimate threat. But, if there is no imminent threat, you might feel frustrated or abandoned. This could result in losing the chance to use defensive forces.

Principle of proportionality

There are two fundamental test that must be met in a defensive action: necessity and proportionality. The court will look for necessity when deciding whether a defensive action is appropriate. However, the second test is flexible and less demanding. It questions whether the response to the threat is adequate and necessary to defend yourself in those situations. Kyle passed both of these requirements and was therefore allowed to use physical force to address the threat.

Principle of Imminence

The "Principle o' Imminence" law requirement must be fulfilled in most jurisdictions when speaking for self-defense. An actor can't avoid harm so a threat of force becomes imminent in most cases.
