This is funny. Ramal12, you sounds a bit too "preachy", and like you're trying to "talk down" to me - scold me. I don't think it's very respectful.

What did Jesus do? You can catch a lot more flies with honey then with vinegar. Even if someone is abusive, does that mean you have to come down to their level? Just showing how shallow you are if you do. As even Jesus said, do to others what you would want them to do to you. Ever heard of the Golden Rule? Show respect and you will get respect. If not from some, it may cause them to turn around and begin to show some to others because you showed them some when they were real jerks. I have seen it happen many times. Try it and see if it does not work for you too.

Yes, show them respect but if they're been abusive and disrespectful to you, then be rude to them too...or at least make them stop by acting smarter than they are.

YES. Otherwise, everyone would fight constantly. You will always find someone with views you disagree with.
