+418 What happened to the days of beating someone up if they called you a name, instead of suing them or going home and killing yourself? People need to loosen up, amirite?

Seriously, it's pitiful

I think part of it has to do with the stricter rules in school. If you punch one kid you're out for good, unlike the good ol' days where they let kids settle things out. So people resort to mentally harassing others instead.

'tis true. Such a shame to go from being the home of the brave to the home of the "if you breathe on me I'll sue you"s

because then the people you can sue for slander, instead can now sue you for assault

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Pretty soon people will be able to sue others for thinking bad thoughts. And not to mention, criminals are suing victims. I don't know how that even works.

Please tell me you're kidding... When did that happen?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Its happened a lot. Like the time when a burglar broke into someone's house, and tripped and hurt himself. He sued the house owner successfully. Or the other time when someone had a heart attack,a bystander preformed CPR and saved his life. The one with the heart attack sued his savior for "not doing it right". Also when a drunk driver killed a kid, and sued his parents for it. I have plenty of other examples like that. It's really sad to see how evil humanity is.

Like you can go to prison for assault with a deadly weapon by spitting on someone. Usually it would be assault for them, for kicking your fucking ass

Because of course violence is the answer. The best would be to do none of the above.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I'm not saying violence is the answer. I'm saying that years ago, if someone called you a name you would fight for 3 seconds and then be friends again. And yes, a little fighting is better than suicide.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah but neither is even better. That's why I said NONE of the above. As in not fighting, suicide, or suing.

I know what you were saying, I just wanted to clarify that I wasn't endorsing violence. I just wanted to point out how people have lost their spines. Good points though.

violence is sometimes the answer, just not all the time

People are insane with lawsuits these days.
