Bullying

[shatto]

Bullying? Who, me?

I had fights in Grammer School. Thats what it was called waaay
back then. As I recollect, around the beginning of the school year
I got into a fight with some guy, and maybe his friends, who
thought pushing me around was a good idea. Bad idea. I popped
him in the nose. The rest of the year I had no more problems.
Most of the time anyway.

Seems to me that world history backs me up in how I
handled being bullied.
Bullies bully because bullies are allowed to bully.
A house-pet is smaller than you but, enraged it will stand and
defend itself.
A little girl or boy may be pummeled into the dirt by a
bully after fighting back, but he will have their respect and
usually back-off and pick on someone who won't defend
them-self.
A major part of the problem of bullying is that we have
become a society convinced that some external power or
authority must handle all of our problems, so we often
do not even consider handling them ourself.
