Non Mopar rant! High school politics.

A good way to get people, specially bully's to stay away from your kids is for your kids to make everyone think he's freaking nuts.
There are sevaral ways to do this, use your imagination.

In my case, I was nuts and everyone pretty much left me alone ever since kindergarten when I took a yard stick out of my teachers hand, broke it over my knee after she was cracking me with it, and held the sharp part up to her throat and told her if she ever pulls my girlfriend's hair again I would kill her.

That gave me a really good start in the makings of a "don't mess with this kid" reputation which pretty much stayed with me the rest of my school days.

This was back in the day when a school teacher would not think twice about smacking a kid in the face or pulling their hair, ear, scratching them with their nails, pinching, cuff to the back of the head.

I was actually a good kid but for some reason had an uncanny desire to jump into the fire when someone was getting picked on regardless of how big the kid was.

In second grade, the biggest, fattest bully in the school pushed down my twin Sister on the playground and I went berzerk, ran up behind him and jumped on his back and put all my weight on his head and steered him headfirst into the dirt which stunned him pretty good, and from there I proceeded to give his head everything I had until I had no steam left in me.
Took three teachers to pull me off and earned me a stern talking to and yet a pat on the back from the principle for sticking up for my Sister against a bully.

I never passed an opportunity to help out the victom even if the dude was bigger and could probably kill me if I didn't act fast.
