In high school in Texas a fellow pulled a knife in the school yard and threatened us....we beat the snot out of him and took his knife. Another student pointed a .22 rifle at one of our class mates...we took the rifle away from him and beat the snot out of him with his rifle. 20 Students were stabbed and no one tried to stop him after the first two?
A product of our culture. It's the slavery to technological comfort as depicted in Wall-E ...
If that ain't the truth about how it was done in my day.
Someone got their ass kicked and pretty much that was the end of it .... kind'a like market economics ... the people know what to do, how to do it and when.
