Violence is any word or action that hurts another person.

T--gh t-tt--s.

Ubfortunately it is tactics such as these which propagandize our kids, turning them from American family values. (Unless, of course, your family value is total wimpiness and hatred of self-defense.) It's also a handy tactic to squelch any student from criticizing "lifestyle" choices and "wright and wrong." They don't dare - they would hurt another person. (Vilence.) I feel this is more insideous than it appears at first read.
