I bet these are the same kind of people who were mad when Bin Laden was killed.
The fact that you are equating somebody who bullied you in childhood to Nazi war criminals or international terrorists speaks volumes as to how little closure your supposed revenge escapade has provided you with.

Fact is, your revenge tactics have not done the job of removing this person from your headspace or allowing you to move on in life, clearly.

Hopefully you didn't spend a lot of time looking up sources, because this poster (along with another frequent poster, see the "spanking" thread) is the sort who's likely to say that if your evidence comes from the field of psych, it's not valid, and will blow off any and all data presented out of hand.

Uh...?

So. You're not mad at me. Right?

You don't see the difference in a bully and a terrorist who murders thousands of people? Seriously? Was the OP murdered? He may have been tormented in junior high 25 years ago but unless his bully killed people he IS different from a terrorist. Good lord I hope I never run into any of you people IRL.

Apparently the bully almost killed him. Which is an act of no mere bully but a psychopath.

A psychopath who was probably 12-14 years old? Yes I agree the OP suffered at the hands of this bully but it's time to let it go already. Hurting people hurt people and for all we know the bully was being severely abused at home which is why he was lashing out. I think I would be on the OP's side if he had learned some self defense, located the bully and beat the snot out of him. He's a coward because he still won't face this bully, he's getting his revenge in juvenile ways and thinks it's okay to cause businesses to lose money because of his antics. Then he justifies himself by saying that businesses consider this "loss" just part of doing business.


I'm done with this thread.

Um... that's still revenge.

Do you support the idea of revenge or not?

Oh and please stop with the they were abused at home crap as if that is a valid excuse.

That is no excuse whatsoever for bullying others. Your home life problems are not anybody else's problems. No need to take your frustrations out on helpless innocent people who are not to blame for your problems in life.
