"morality" in bars/clubs

Dazzn, I officially hate you now.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

Then afterwards, they can explain the experience by saying "I got clubbed in a club by a schlub, whom I slugged and threw in a tub." Maybe even punctuate it by saying "wub wub" at the end.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

lol.. ok, so assaulting some dopey teens or people in general in a bar is "baaaad"? lol. who even determines badness?
somebody will say most likely "would you like it for people to do it to you?" lol.. who cares, the golden rule is not something most follow. people say things they don't mean.
