|  I went to high school in the 60s. If you got in a fight even in class, as long as you didn't hit the teacher they just broke it up. Maybe a trip to the VP Office to get talked to. If you hit the teacher they may whip your *****. You begged for them to call the police to take you to jail instead of calling your parents. Last edited by lifesgood; 05-27-2007 at 08:27 PM. |

| Resident Armed Liberal   | I graduated in 1967 Quote:
But the PC nonsense was already starting. My friend Doug was fighting a black guy one day, and it was a pretty even fight. Then some blacks from a different crowd (who weren't even friends with the guy fighting) started horning in, pushing at Doug, hitting him in the back, and trying to trip him. So I intervened. It wound up with the two of us back to back, trying to stand off the whole group. Luckily, the teachers managed to break it up before we went down. The next thing I knew, Doug and I were in the vice-principal's office. He was so tee'd off he was red in the face, and he started jumping all over us for "exacerbating racial tensions at the school!" I took about thirty seconds of it, then blew. By the time I finished telling him what he could do with his "racial tensions," the whole school had probably heard me. Somewhere down the line, I think I even offered to pull his fat *** out from behind the desk, so I could demonstrate on him what had been happening to Doug when I stepped in. That definitely wasn't my normal behavior in school, and after a minute or two he just shut up and stared at me in shock while I ranted. By the time I wound down I was fully expecting to be escorted off the grounds, and maybe charged with threatening a school official. Instead the principal himself came into the room, sent us back to class, and we never heard another word about it. The guy who'd been fighting Doug apologized to him, even though the bad guys weren't friends of his.

| I remember 1972, my shop teacher used to set up an imprompto boxing ring and put the gloves on anyone who got in a fight. We spent an hour watching the two biggest guys in class duke it out one day! |
