Just me, or was this guy an asshole? (sort of long)

violence is a wonderful thing, it solves all kinds of problems. why the extreme pacifism? you should know that extremes never work out.

Ok, now no one said 'roll over and let them do whatever they want.'

Let me put it this way, I'm most definitely not an extreme pacifist by any means. There are situations where I would kick someone's ass, and have done so.

But in this situation, from the way it was described, I would surely not recommend pulling a gun to someone and shooting at their feet. That, to me, sounds like extreme violence.

I'm not saying that all violence is unavoidable, and I most assuredly will not let someone push me or my family around, but just because someone is ignorant enough to say something rude or stupid (probably because they think it's funny), that doesn't necessarily mean I'm going to automatically put them in a wheelchair.

The way I see it...

If he said, "OH, yea, I remember your sister. Isn't she dead yet?"

I would have to say "What the f**k did you just say? I sure as hell hope you're kidding, cuz that's not funny to me."

Generally, in my experience, when you make swift, firm action (verbally), people tend to backtrack and apologize, or at least withdraw. Then you have won, they go into their shell, and there is no violence.

Now, had he continued to say rude and insulting comments, I would ask him to just leave completely, or we would have problems.

Then, sometimes, he pushes you, or continues his bullsh*tting, and then you knock him out. But that is far away from what happened here.

You say:

...fucking extreme pacifists, willing to roll over and let people do whatever the hell they want....damn babyboomer children, damn babyboomers...damn it all, if these are the kinds of people that will be running the country some day then im getting the hell out.

Well, I say...f*cking extreme violent wanna-be thugs always trying to start a fight where there doesn't need to be. Where is the peace? If these are the kinds of people that will be running the country someday, then I'm getting the hell out.
