” A bully keeps on bullying until you fight back. “
This held true until liberals decided that bullying was offensive to society and they felt the need to change the paradigm for the common good. This actually led to unforeseen circumstances which created a society of the bullied now becoming the bullies. This is where “white males” became the problem and it manifested itself all the way from the schoolyard to the highest reaches of government.
When I was in public school, I was bullied by a group of kids because I was Jewish. My mother wanted to go to the principal and do something. My father enrolled me in karate and said I will need to take care of this on my own. He told me next time I was bullied I should walk up to the leader and punch him in the nose as hard as I could. I might wind up taking a beating but I would have fought back.
About two months later, on my way home from school I was confronted on the train platform. The leader threw a punch at me and I blocked it and hit him square in the nose, drawing blood. He started crying and ran away.
After that, I was never bothered by that group.
Great story. Your father was a wise man.
Yep that’s what it takes. In my case I got the crap beaten out of me, but it stopped the bulling, and we became friends.
