or is it characteristic of him to discontinue it when he knows he is right?

An insecure person will walk away from an argument or debate. Also an insecure person will not walk away from an argument or debate. You cannot generalise every insecure/secure person. You can only judge someone in this way if you KNOW them. If you do not know them then how can you classify them? A psychologist wouldn't classify someone after the first session for example. It depends on personalities and moods. At the time of said debate/argument!
A person who is not insecure will not discontinue because they are right and therefore SECURE in their knowledge, why would they back down if they are right and secure in this knowledge?

Insecurity--What insecurity. What is the individual insecure about?
Does this particular insecurity have anything to do with the argument? You talk about insecure charecteristics. What are these? You don't know because you don't understand the concept.
I wonder if, in your world, every person who has an insecurity about anything argues and every person who is not insecure doesn't argue?
Why do you think in such general terms? "Characteristics" Insecure characteristics? WHAT? The reason you asked the question is because you don't know what the characteristics of an 'insecure person are'.
How do you expect an answer to such an ambiguous,but specific(if that makes sense) question? What do you mean by insecure? If you can't specify this then how can you determine what is characteristic of a non-specific insecurity of an individual?
For example, you are clearly a little insecure but without knowing what your insecure about then i couldn't possibly tell you whether or not this would make you argumentative or not.
P.S. My problem is, i don't like blind ignorance. I don't care that you are 17, why would i? You choose to post answers in my posts, so deal with it. You can call me what you want but it is not in my nature to take it on the chin. I enjoy this, i'm happy. What is your excuse nobbeldygook? Are you happy? Do you enjoy this?
I pi** you off so much but i don't care. Why do you? What are you so insecure about? I am intrigued. You must first grasp that i REALLY don't care what negative words you write. Keep them coming and i will keep responding, HAPPILY.
AND that is your problem! You don't like my happiness. Why not? Because you are not happy-simple psychology. Is this true for every unhappy person: they dislike apparently happy persons? That would be a little easier to answer. YOU KNOW WHAT---Ill post that in the same section and hope i get more than 4 1/2 replies.

I don't think continuing an argument when a person knows they are right or wrong is a sign of insecurity, but more a sign of someone who is either a sore loser or winner and doesn't know when to quit.

Most people what to be valued and have their feelings valued. Many people argue because they believe they are right and others are wrong, either to get even or to show the importance and truth of their statements, actions, etc. It is usually not enough to be right, because that changes nothing in dealing with others. Of course, arguing may not be the best choice in dealing with others. There are other ways of dealing with many issues.

an insecure person can be easily swayed by another persons opinion. so, yes, they will often discontinue, even tho they know they are right.
