Thanks for the replies, but I'm still no closer to understanding what it means. The first guy who asked me this wasn't some crazy drunken bastard, he was my brothers friend who had some a problem with me for some reason, but I couldn't figure out why. In self defense, I'll do what has to be done to put the other guy outta commission, but I'd never attack some random person who I don't know, for no reaason. This guy was asking me slightly varied questions like "who in your area do you want to kill, tell me and I'll go and kill them for you" or "if I go to this place to fight this person, would you back me up". Answer to the 2nd question was "depends who the person is" and first question answer was "theres nobody in my area that I want to kill", basically just answered everything truthfully like I always do.

Maybe they thought you were the "dangerous loner" type?
Anyway, the guy was drunk; I don't think you need to be reading that much into his actions. Asking a total stranger whether they'd beat someone up is a pretty rude thing to do. Even most Aspies would know better than that.
Unless I have a death wish, I wouldn't go up to a "dangerous loner type" and ask questions like that. He was talking about gay people with aids though, and talked a lot about homosexuality so I think maybe he had AIDS and had nothing to lose so didn't give a crap. I was mildly high at the time so I was steering the conversation towards more positive and funny topics like starting the revolution by taking down a public monument and replacing it with a giant plasma globe. He approved of my idea and said he'd join my cause, then he dragged some girl behind us into the conversation which made it funnier because I was saying "this is where it starts, now theres three of us, pretty soon there'll be a million of us, the snowball effect" and the drunk guy was planning how he was going to take the monument down with a saw but I informed him we'd need a blowtorch (its made of metal) and possibly some explosives. The funniest part was when the girl asked what the snowball effect is, and as I was explaining it in scientific terms, the drunk guy was repeating key words like "gravitational force" and "momentum" but clearly didn't have a clue what I was talking about.
He got me embarrassed when he said "this girl likes you, you two are meant to be together, you could even have kids". This is my major weakness in life, I haven't made any progress with girls and this one was pretty nice looking, I could never see someone like her having an interest in me. Then he told me "you just need to think positively". So all in all, it was a very bizarre conversation. I don't know whether the guy was being friendly or beligerant or both. Thats how drunk people are though I suppose, one minute they're friendly, next minute they're angry and violent.
