For decades, we have been teaching our children how violence doesn’t solve anything. Corporate HR looks the other way when employees are attacked by customers. An employee defending themselves from physical attack are deemed violent and terminated.
I was terminated once, suspended pending investigation several times, and other disciplinary measures because I defended myself from an attack. My attackers have never gotten more than a couple of months of probation. That’s how we have gotten to this point:
This is political violence intended to affect voting- the definition of terrorism. Nothing is done. Simple assault charges are nothing. A fine, maybe probation.
There need to be real consequences for attacking others, but we have been conditioned to be a “good person” by not responding, because people say violence isn’t the answer.
If violence was used as the answer, wannabe bullies would stop asking the question.
Start stomping an attacker’s ass, and this sort of thing would stop happening.
