God grant me the patience and the strength...9

Mwg, Trust me I am totally aware of the guidelines of probation. And they couldn't have kept me more in those lines if they'd have chained me to them. Again I WILL NOT go to jail again.

but who is to say that one human should use violence to prove a point? It is not up to you to cause harm but hopefully you have learned from it.

This is a tough one for me to put here and someone to understand. I grew up this way MWG. My whole family is a bunch of "take sh*t off no one" people. When I was 15 my mom found out I was smoking with my best freind. She called her mom. That friend caught me off gaurd and beat the crap out of me. I didn't fight back because she was my friend (so I thought). When I got home my mom beat the crap out of me for not fighting back. Does that tell you anything. I went through life though using my mouth. I, like them, never took crap, but I avoided fighting. But this time was different. She hurt me and my girls more than anyone ever could. I HAD to fight back. Can you understand? I HAD to. I didn't do it to prove a point to anyone. And Yes I learned a very hard lesson. It will not happen ever again.

I think having some dignity and showing some class will get you further in life.

I agree with you 100% and how I've always lived my life. Up until this.
