Right!! This trend of words are violence therefore physical voilence is an appropriate response is scary. Words can hurt, no doubt, but the response needs to be more words. Not stabbing, not slapping, not tackling.

If I don't like what soemone wrote or said, I don't buy whatever it is, or I dont go to wherever they're speaking. Or if I do, it's to debate them, with words. If I don't like a comedian's stance on something, I don't go to their show. Or I may write something.

This is getting stupid.
