The provokers know who to mess with.
Only people they feel may not actually strike back with force.
Similar to when the KKK marches through our city.
If they did not have police protection they would not do it.
Or they would get murked.
if you think that persons are always nice/respectful, then your conception of human nature/interaction is off.
the fact is people generally are nice. but there are some instances where this is not the case.
take this example - walking along a street and being shouted at. or another - being treated rudely by a store clerk.
I don't see why what I am saying is so controversial. sometimes people are not always respectful. it's no more contentious than saying "people feel happy around their friends".
What point are you trying to make, you posted you purposely try to anger ppl when you walk in their path....then post like a victim. 30s to old for that nonsense.

i think it's a normal adult conception of life.
Where in my comments did you extrapolate that I feel that people are always nice and respectful?
My point was that people who provoke others on a regular basis usually do it when they feel they are safe from retribution.
I will use an obvious example.
A white guy in a white suburban neighborhood with his friends might choose to call a singular black person in that neighborhood a racist name.
But the same withe guy, with his friends in a mainly black ghetto neighborhood would probably not do that because of the strong possibility of getting a severe beating.
Just as quite a few people will say all kinds of provoking things online that they would not dare say to the same person's face offline.
