Just another case of bullying really. Happens to be a 19 year-old guy beating on 15 and 16 year-old girls, what are some of your thoughts on this one?

I'm not a fan of violence, but I'll say I can sometimes root for the bullied standing up to the bully. But what if it's a case where the bullied is an older guy, and the bully is a younger girl or girls.

Wow, the guy definitely did go over the top with that. Although what the girls did was pretty dumb too. Just do your own thing, and don't annoy others.

"The injury has left a scar on Leah's face that will be there for years." Hopefully a physical reminder to her of what happens if she tries to annoy/bully people.

Customers at work are always calling me harry potter, serious. At least once per day.

I don't think I look very similar to daniel radcliffe, less so than OP.

More enlightened customers have called me buddy holly, which I like as that is the look I was going for. I also get clark kent, which I am ambivalent about.

It is okay though, the concept I don't mind.

No specific insult or aggression bothers me, I do despair of man's inhumanity to man though, I think it's very impolite to address strangers so, and it's often accompanied by other rude and loutish behaviour.

I am perhaps most annoyed by the shallowness of the pop-cultural awareness of my customers, calling me harry potter because it's the only film they've seen, oblivious of nearer resemblances.

I think if you insult the wrong person.... its will end up like this or worse...

To me... if a girl were to call me that.... the girls would be on my peddle-stool (aka dick)

Allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies, and are more than just ice king on the cake. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go.

Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts, instead of making a half-harded effort. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.
