    I didn't say it didn't happen. But you have to admit the frequency and intensity today is significantly different. But I'm not going to argue with you.

      Well as an responsible clear thinking adult we should first psychoanalyze what he said and why he is harboring such aggressive thoughts. Ahh nevermind right on Clint you the man

        I think theres a few more schools that run this kind of thing. LOL @ principal saying its for the overcrowded school by 200+. We had about 400 and no one had an issue.

        Fights today are BS, someone else has to get involve and do anything cheap.

                I would add that theres also a segment of society that now glamorizes and looks up the culture of gangs & guns.

                  The mob pushed the impending incident off school grounds and there you stood with a ring of people crowded around you and it was put up or get beat down time. Hell, sometimes you got beat down, but it was gut check time and you slammed your fist of rage right into the mf'ers temple and just kept swinging until you got pulled off of him or the bully got tired of beating on you. Either way, if you inflicted enough pain on the bully, it was the last time he was going to bother messing with you. But the thought of murdering the bully really never came up.

                  Now it appears to be different. People have no regard for human life. They are cowards that carry guns and knives and travel in packs. You don't have the option of going one on one toe to toe with the bully. They'd kill you before that happens. There is a gang that you can't possibly win against unless you want to add some fire power to the game yourself and then where will that end.

                  I'll all for a good old fashioned throw down, it used to be a right of passage and oh so satisfying when you made a stand and threw that punch that landed to the cheers and dismay of the crowd but I don't think it works that way anymore Clint.

                    I agree with the old man.


                    Yeah gangs have always existed in some fashion or another, but even when i was a kid, fights were one on one affairs. If I am with my boys and the guy I am fighting was with his, there was always the implied agreement that the fight was one on one. My boys won't jump in, your's won't jump in, and we did the damn thing. It wasn't until I got older (around 10th or 11th grade) that dudes started going the coward route, carrying guns and weapons and ganging up on individuals.

                        Clint is romanticizing and overgeneralizing at the same time, so it's kind of hard to take him seriously. "Maybe when people started asking 'what is the meaning of life'?" Brilliant, Clint. So the p*ssy generation started at the origin of civilization. The man is a good filmmaker, but that is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard from a fully functioning person.

                        The neighborhood where average arguments commonly escalate to murder is hardly the section of society Clint is referring to. I doubt he's insinuating that the kids in Red Hook are all p*ssies. At the same time, there is an overemphasis on poor psychology being applied to societal issues.

                            Cline Eastwood is an idiot; I really couldn't care less about what he thinks. He's a stuck up prick.

                              There isn't anything PC or pseudo-intellectual about the quotes that I have. You think that the old Bucs jerseys look nice so I'm not surprised that you would be a victim of this nostalgic view of the world. I can do it too!

                              If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)
