No one is saying not to stand up to bullies. That’s ridiculous and I think you know that saying that is ridiculous.
I am saying there is a pretty big difference between parents cheering at a sport where their kids may get hurt, like wrestling, boxing, football or hockey and parents cheering their kid on during a fistfight with a bully in a school yard.
If you don’t see that then there’s very little left to discuss.
There is a difference, the judge was more wrong than the father though.
