Possibly as an American you haven't seen the prayer protests blocking streets in Montreal and elsewhere yet.

Note the comments.

It is disingenuous of The Guardian to run an article without posting photos of what everyone is annoyed enough about to make new laws regarding.

Thank you for the Reddit links. Why only men join the prayers?

I never understood this “common wisdom” about bullies being actually wimps who won’t touch you after you hit back once. It has never rung true to me. It paints all bullies with a broad brush and tells kids to take their chances physically engaging a larger kid acting like a psychopath.

Bullies may either have psychological issues, abuse issues at home with their family, or they may be in a gang. “Standing up to a bully” in junior high or high school may get you jumped by the whole gang, maybe even stabbed. The bully may harbor a grudge and make sure to make an example of you.

More broadly, this idea countries have that “this time we’ll retaliate and hit them so hard, they won’t retaliate and hit us back anymore” is what leads to endless escalation in wars.

There are better ways to deal with bullies than “standing up to them” as an individual.

It is a game theory approach with a bit of social signalling thrown.

Damn, why get into this in the first place anyway? Seems like looking for trouble. I feel sorry for the guy but still, respect the beliefs of the people you are living with.

Seems like majority opinion is against your post OP. Guess it is your turn to go to court
