If someone does something to me I'd want to come at them with weapons like throwing rocks or using a stick with maybe a pointy end as a spear or even pepperspray if I could get my hands on it.
Maybe that's kind of fantastical and cringe, but I think practicing martial arts and thinking you can defend beat the shit out of anyone causing you trouble is more cringe. They might carry a gun or a knife, they might not be alone, they might be stronger and taller than you, they might practice themselves. Martial arts seems like the fastest way to get seriously hurt. Nobody can defend against a person on drugs with a spear.
