So if all of the sudden, car accidents became less frequent to the point that the chances are equal to someone bringing a weapon to school, we should just quit putting seatbelts in cars?

I guess the only better thing to do is to change the way schools are run and who runs them. I had no idea it was that bad. I know in high school there were many fights, in fact, I was in some. But to have children being exposed to this sort of thing at a young age where all they have to rely is the adults, that's just horrible.

I suppose rape victims on the street should inform the police before they get raped?
Well according to my handy copy of the World According to Josh, if the rape victim fought back or used any training in self defense then that would just be propagating the never ending cycle of violence. What if the rapist had his eyes scratched out, what then? Wouldn't he just be angry and even more mad using even more violence against women? Nigh, tis better for the victim to submit to rape and let the authorities deal with the matter afterward.
You ask, but what if the woman was being kidnapped? Surely most of those lead to death, shouldn't she fight back then? Nigh, the karma of violence would only find her descendants and torture them. Tis better the woman die quietly and submissively. Let karma deal with the kidnapper on its own schedule.
So ends this lesson...

Well look who has changed their tune....

My tune has been quite steady. You, on the other hand, need to go back to school and learn how to read. And by the look of your picture, I'm sure you won't be bullied...... much.

Because he should have told the school faculty before it had to come to self defense. It's all there, perhaps you missed it.

Wow. How incredibly thick headed are you? This is about children at school and learning violence. I've tried to be nice and express my views on this thread. Not about rape, not about robbery. 12 year olds. 12 YEAR OLDS. Do you understand? Probably not, but, I do feel for you. I am sorry that you are burdened with the inability to comprehend. It must be hard to read dozens of post, and not even understand any of them. What is even worse it that I've wasted my time debating this situation about school and violence when, all along, I could have been talking to a bucket of gravel.
