We have one here like that. It takes more than a kick to stop him. I need 
a stick for protection. It just makes him madder and he keeps coming.

I while back I swung the stick and connected real good across the head. It 
set him spinning and he laid down with his feet in the air quiverring. 
Afraod to tell my wife what I had done, I laid him in the hen house floor. 
A while back I went and checked and he had come to and was up and around 
and mean as ever. One eye was closed for a while but now he is back to 
normal. No chicken dinner yet.
