I was haning out with my friend over at his house. And another one of his friends came over and we got into a conversation about sxe and all of a sudden he starts attacking sxe (verbally of course) and I just snaped and beat the shit out of him. Was I being too protective of sxe?

Well, what did he say? I think I'd just have left if it was bad enough to fight over, but, that's just me...

Could you have defended your beliefs verbally or can you not explain to people through words what something means to you? Or are you insecure with your beliefs that you need to physically shut someone up before they back you into an argumentative corner?

No see I was talking/arguing with this guy for like 20 minutes. And the stuff he was saying just made me so angry and its not like I havn't been in an argument with someone before and been able to control myself. I just snaped. I don't know what I was thinking. And I have no problem defending my beliefs verbally I do it almost every day (with members of my family/friends) and I have never had to "physically shut someone up" before. But I guess you are right. thanks for the input.

yeah...thanks for the constructive critisism.

Well, straightforward question, straightforward answer. Beating on people is bad, and probably only made that kid have a worse impression of sXe. Use your words, kid.

PS - You kinda look like you're going for Anothony Michael Hall in the Breakfast Club.

Be a positive influence and live by example, ya know. do you think more people will respond by threat or do you think they'd see that you live a straight lifestyle, are a cool guy and have lots of fun and be more influenced? Stay in control brotha.

Well you weren't being protective of straightedge at all, in fact you were giving it a bad immpression. What did he say about sxe that made you feel violence was necessary?

You can ask for constructive inputs all you want but the simple truth is you acted like an idiot, who knows if it will remain just one time? You need to address why you lost it and acted violently. UIntil you do address that you can't say it was just a one off that won't happen again. People will always talk shit on straightedge and lets be honest, were you reacting because he bad mouthed straightedge or because he hit a raw nerve with you that you didn't like? Maybe he pointed something out that you just didn't want to hear or accept, if you shine a light on something people wish to ignore you can easily make them very uncomfortable, perhaps to the point of violence. Of course thats just one theory, i mean its for you to address for all i know you could have just made the whole thing up to sound tough, stranger things have happened.

I was just thinking about the wording of this. Does straight edge need protection? Is straight edge in danger of being hurt? It's not like the dude was threatening your mom. Let people talk all the shit they want. Don't even pay any mind.

I was haning out with my friend over at his house. And another one of his friends came over and we got into a conversation about sxe and all of a sudden he starts attacking sxe (verbally of course) and I just snaped and beat the shit out of him. Was I being too protective of sxe?


By the way that was pretty fuckin' weak dude.

Holy shit, how many times id you post? Its ok, though. ^^

You shouldent have beat up the guy for bagging on sXe, Because then he gets the idea that Edgers are all just kids who beat up on people who dont agree with them
