Violence sucks.

Allways.

FALSE.

Your loss.

It was a joke, I&#39;m using extreme sarcasm. Notice my previous replies. I think completely denying something with no information to back it up is humorous.

But there will never be a time without violence, so you might as well embrace it. Then while embracing it, kick someone in the teeth.

@SensualGardening
Stick to your principles my friend. I agree with them, however i do have a comment.

Sometimes you just cant turn your back on violence. Its here and very much a part of everyday life - unfortunately - and most kids these days seem to accept it as a normal way of life. Demonstrating against it or trying to ignore it sometimes helps, but not allways. It wont go away and one day maybe someone is faced with the fact of either defending themselves or being either killed or seriously injured, just because the idiot your facing wont listen to reason.

In my post before, i mentioned that violence in my experience isnt the first answer, which i stick by. But if talking or reasoning dosnt work and obviously this guy cant just turn his back because his enemy is at the same school, then what are his alternatives? ITS NOT WRONG to defend yourself - let me make my views on that known - and i hope they come to an amicable solution. I just hope he dosnt get himself in the same predicament again and has learned something by this experience. After all, he did provoke a reaction - however innocent it was supposed to be - and now has to sort it out.

I hear you.
And, as usual, agree with you to a certain point.

I&#39;m not against defending yourself.

In the past as orderly in pychiatric hospitals i sometimes too had to fall back to

defensive violence, mostly to protect people against themselfes(& other patients).

In allmost any other threatening situation i resort to:

Running.

I am proud to say i never used violence in any other situation, though i had to

suffer some black eyes for not fighting back.

I remember one time as a kid i came home with a black eye.

My father asked if i did fight.

I told him someone hit me, because i commented on a racist remark, but didn&#39;t

want to hit back.

My father was sooo proud&#33;&#33;

Violence becomes violence......etc.

I know i&#39;m rowing my boat upstream, but what&#39;s new??

Keeps me in shape.

You know, there&#39;s a lot of kids outhere........

Demonstrating against violence helps.
Ignoring doesn&#39;t.

Hey guys, how&#39;s it going? Do you have kids Yogi?

I think it&#39;s entirely up to parents, and too many of them don&#39;t seem to be &#39;bothered&#39; to teach their children decent principles. i.e. Violence never really solved anything. You might bully somebody into agreeing with you, but what&#39;s the point in that? You won&#39;t have thier respect and I&#39;d much rather have that. I try to teach my kids to find other ways to solve problems, but it does seem to come naturally to boys to lash out with their fists. I have great faith that my message will eventually sink in.
