Do you guys not see the difference between, say, an honest disagreement that might even get kind of heated or playful goofing around and poking fun, versus purposefully trying to stir up shit? It's like someone who goes to the bar to start a fight for their own entertainment much to the chagrin of the other patrons of the bar.
So the "bar" has some bouncers around for those people to keep the bar fun, and you think the bouncers should just stand there and take it when the shit-starter is trying to start a fight with them. As the Shaw would say "That's fucked up, yo".
