It is legal to be a dick. That doesn't mean that you should not try to abstain from being a dick. Not all anti-social behavior needs to be, or should be, banned.

I don't think it is correct to speak in such absolutes. Sometimes a fight is just a fight. I got into my fair share of trouble when I was a kid; both starting fights without any real provocation and being the recipient of aggression w
