Haven't heard one like that in a loooong time...clever.
idave - it sounds as though you've got this pretty much sorted, but good luck anyway. Again, to all you keyboard warriors, it's one thing fantasising about commiting acts of violence, but quite another when you actually have to face it. Yes, sometimes it's inevitable, but in my not inconsiderable experience, there are far better ways to resolve conflict. And without wanting to embarrass tj, I suspect with his background working in health, he's seen more violence and aggression than most of you put together.
And peterfile, you really might want to rethink that rape comment...
Kaesae It was
and the good news was both me and my girl both came out the other side OK with no lasting damage.

you sassenachs are sooooo civilisedI had the fortune of growing up in Glasgow.
I once started a rather harmless rumour at school that a lad was gay and I spotted him ****ing our maths teacher off in the toilets.
About 2 days later, his alcoholic father knocked on my front door, politely asked my mother if I was around, and then, with my mother standing beside me at the door, dragged me outside and smacked me clean in the face. I was 16.

That must be the saddest most stupid comment ever,you could have ruined the teachers career,his life and his relationship with who ever,pity the dag didnt bend you over and.................,now that would be legal now at 16.
Just going to add this in.
There are of course times when you are caught in a situation where violence may be the only option to get you out of a trapped corner so to speak.
However, going round to sort someone out is very different. Of course it may be tempting but the point is that this is pre-meditated. The courts take a very dim view of this and your in an even worse situation.
Try your best to keep a level head, very easy for me to say here but it is in your best interest.
As a mate used to say - always try to run away. If you can't run away then try to talk your way out of it. If you can't talk your way out of it then hit them as hard as you can.... then run away.
I really do hope you get this sorted as soon as possible and back to your normal life.
heh! rape comment was an [b]analogy[/b], lighten up. you're all banging on about beating people senseless, jeez.
iDave, no advice mate but as a dad with two little ones I really hope you get this sorted out asap. Makes me sick with worry the though of this happening to my two.
All the best mate.
"heh! rape comment was an analogy, lighten up. you're all banging on about beating people senseless, jeez."
I for one have not advocated beating anyone senseless. And that's a piss poor 'analogy' - sorry for not 'lightening up', but when someone you love gets raped or abused, you might struggle to see the funny side. ****.
For
your info born in Scotland brought up in edinburgh had to run to the polis at 9 years because drunken old man fighting with brother.
now live in England and do not have any hang ups apart from someone like TJ.As I can assure you have seen and know doubt will see many more sad schenes before I retire my god willing.
Still stand bye the fact that my family will not be attacked whilst I can draw breath.
Can not go into any real detail of my job as it covers England and Wales for the gov.uk
[i]heh! rape comment was an analogy[/i]
Analogy fail.
I'm short and can't fight like some. If, however, somebody, anybody threatened my family I'd make them suffer pain. To Hell with the consequences, a man must have priorities in life.
Violence isn't the best way, but like democracy it sometimes leaves no other option.
[b]TJ, go to bed, you opinionated, ignorant, attention-whoring and publicity-seeking keister[/b]
To Hell with the consequences
That's kinda dumb. You can't protect your family from a prison cell. There are ways and means, which it seems I may have to investigate further.
iDave, to me it looks like you have your head screwed on. With your attitude I reckon you'll get this sorted out and I wish you and your family all the best. It's a horrible thing to have to go through but you will come out the other side and you can get back to the normality of your life.
I'm glad there are people out there like you who care and look after their family.
Good luck.
And for what it's worth, I've spoken with TJ a few times and to me he seems like a genuinely decent and nice bloke. A charecter for sure, but a really good one.
There is a justifiable threshold for self-defence and the defence of others. But that rarely accounts for what ends up in A+E.
Stop and count to ten.
I'm with iDave in trying to avoid a direct face-to-face. I don't have kids, not even in a relationship at the mo', [i]but[/i] I can very, very easily empathise with those who do. I can very easily see the path of escalation, they almost certainly know your location, so even a bit of a slanging match could easily result in damage to property late at night; a very recent example in the news of someone dying in a house fire after two little scumbags chucked a firework through a letterbox after a confrontation due to their bullying the woman's son. These people are not very bright, but they [i]are[/i] smart, a distinction that is lost on some, the posession of 'street smarts'. They might not be able to count higher than ten without taking their shoes and socks off, and the webbing might still make it difficult for them, but they can still put two and two together and draw an obvious conclusion. If I told off some oik for riding on the path, and next morning my car had been done over I'd know [i]exactly[/i] who to look for, but equally, he'd know it was me retaliating. Any reprisals are gonna have to be devious and subtle, but very effective. I truly wish you luck, my reaction would be to petrol bomb their cars, but the above cautions obviously apply. Best wishes to you and yours, I hope these vermin inherit an entire universe of pain.
I don't like violence or confrontation but... my dad told me bullies only know one thing. One day the "cock" of the school pushes me over a desk because he thought we were laughing at him, i promptly floored him. Never bothered me again. In the real world violence doesn't solve anything. At school however...
Time for bed everyone...
