    I think you would be right not to respect me, I’m quite a shit person. Anyway, as we are commenting a post about a kids hockey game here, I think jumping to violence as a first corrective action is a bit much. I guess it’s impossible to say what age the players were in the anecdote for sure, so if they are something like sixteen or seventeen then go ahead, the jackass had his opportunities to learn civil behavior. The image in my mind was of something like 8 year olds, and even if I think the initiative to help is admirable even then, I really think we should try to raise our children to learn respect before resorting to violence. Or rather, in my stupid idealist mind I want to see people who don’t consider violence as a solution at all.

    Makes me hate the world and hate myself, but it is what it is.
