But you were being persecuted as well toy soldier...simply for either being the bookie or working for one, so it's exactly the same thing...but you held your cool, because you aint naturally violent in nature, unike your customers and these three violent people in this video..

It's a 16 page thread, I can only be honest and say that's not going to happen

I see what you're saying and I agree. Violence is never the answer but theres more than that.

...obviously there is still much to be confirmed/clarified with this ...but I think what has been a vein throughout this thread is that ..‘violence’ is never the answer’ type thing can’t always be applied ...in that violence won’t solve etc but there are situations that it could become a ‘probable’ in reaction to something.../..a chain of events and provocations, type thing...there are just too many grey areas...
...we teach our children not to use violence but that’s a whole ‘big lesson’ as well when we teach them...it’s not just a ..well, don’t do it, it’s never the answer../type black and white thing...because we also ...(...not just in regarding to violence...)..teach them consequences of words and actions when those words and actions become extreme ...’well if you take a swing at someone..(..as reported here...)...then that person might just take a swing back and you might be the one who is more hurt...because you’ve just lost control/you’ve ‘invited something’....so that’s a whole big thing as well ...the older guy felt that physically laying his hands on..(...if that’s true as has been said...)...was ‘the answer‘ when hands were pushed off the holding bar on the bus..then ‘his answer’ was racial abuse...then he changed his answer to taking a swing at...he had many answers it seems, but he didn’t consider a possible reply to his own answers.... ...I personally would never applaud any violence in any way because I abhor it...(...except in a movie type situation ....when a bully or abusive person/racist person..)...’gets a slap/ a comeuppance..’../...type thing and I know that I shouldn’t but I do sometimes ‘applaud’ and say yayyyyyyy...but it’s sometimes easy to see what that can happen as well... ...it’s just sad that it would feel that the older guy didn’t have that ‘violence is never the answer’ chat with his parents when a swing was apparently taken..../...and the prejudice isn’t the answer chat...and the verbally abusing people isn’t the answer chat and etc...and etc...it’s good to get the chats done long before becoming an older person...

To me whilst what happened to the old man is clearly wrong morally, it's also a natural Human reaction imo to lash out if you're being verbally/racially abused by a stranger.
