“remember the good old days when bullies used to just beat your @ss?”
I remember the days when this maniacal drummer in our band used to target bullies and kick their arses. He was sort of a bully, but only towards bullies. He was also sort of a hero to many. Good guy. Joined the USMC and I lost touch.
My son was a little guy in Jr high. There was a 6 ft bully who deliberately picked on smaller boys. He’d just catch them in the hall and beat them up.
Son asked what he should do if the bully started something with him and I told him to “thump” him.
When the time came the bully approached and my son hit him 3 times, gave him a fat lip, a bloody nose and a black eye and made him cry. My son became kind of a celebrity.
