“You tell me and I’ll tell you what I did later.”

There would have been a lot of brown stuff involved.

“I can see that it's time for me to stop”

It certainly is. Not starting in the first place is also an option.

ttbn,

Our resident bully offers his advice.

He knows all about "brown stuff"

He spreads enough of it around. (smile).

Foxy,

"I do not think that Australian soldiers were doing the
wrong thing in defending their country or that the
police are wrong to do their job to save lives. As a matter of fact..."

So you think that violence is sometimes OK, that's good and it's good that you finally agree with me; well done, but you did say "I could never support violence. It is morally repehensible [reprehensible] to me..."

As for insults, how does "And using word like - "worm you way out" does not encourage continued inter-action. It's rude."

compare that with "Sorry don't buy it about Weary Dunlop and guns.
That's your gun-toting fantasy."

A bit of the pot calling the kettle black, and you have ignored the link that I gave that refers to Weary having his pocket pistols on his person AFTER he was captured.
I gave you at your leisure to apologise because I knew that an apology was beyond you.

You never know when it will hit. One minute you're
minding your own business, commenting to someone
on their post, article you've read, or a topic of
discussion and the next thing you know, you're
defending your beliefs, your political affiliation,
state of your health, and your entire life because
of some stranger.

I usually ignore haters. That's my method. I found
it an effective method that has allowed me to stay
sane and keep my principles in tact.

I don't personally respond to attacks as a rule.
I don't mind legitimate feedback and criticism
even the occasional hater, but I won't tolerate
lies and misinformation.

Still trolls lurk in every corner of the web, seeking
to victimize people spreading their negativity.

Responding to trolls only feeds them and makes them
stronger, so it is best to ignore them wherever
possible.

However sometimes their commenting escalates to extremes,
false information and other dirty tactics. Sometimes
they take things too far and things come to a head and
you are forced to respond and defend yourself.

But at the same time the web will never be a safe place.
It is best to remember it is up to you to take the
high road.

And of course we can always report the abusive behaviour
and have the posts deleted or as a lawyer friend had
advised seek legal action.

Foxy,

Does that mean that you accept that violence is sometimes OK?
