I learned in kindergarten that the best way to end violence was not to perpetuate it. If a kid hits you, unless you want it to continue, don't escalate the problem by hitting his head with the lego box. This simple rule has carried over into my adult life. Violence does not solve violence. Just because you carry a bigger block, doesn't mean that no one is going to hit you.
I suppose that is why it amazes me when the USA pass legislation that allows more people to legally carry guns in public places. Currently, Georgia is working on legislation to allow concealed weapons to be brought into restaurants. But don't worry, only those who don't have a criminal history will be allowed to do this.
Apparently, people don't go on shooting sprees unless they have a criminal history.
Needless to say, i am appalled.
