One generally challenges someone to a duel out of honor. If that duel is fought without honor, what's the point? Like you say, boxing has rules, and there are punishments designated for breaking them. And certain infractions are considered not only against the rules, but to be without honor, like hitting below the belt. To win "at all costs" is not boxing. And it's a hollow victory. Won only for the sake of winning, without honor or purpose.

I have posted this wisdom along with your other post this morning to my clipboard. All those iccky things got out of hand. This is an unmoderated thread, and we delayed reporting much of the icky posts in the name of free speech, but threats are not free speech, neither is libel, we should have drawn lines by reporting sooner. It is unfortunate that we don't place those limits upon ourselves. I am asking the LWP to volunteer to do that, and I hope RWET will too or we are kaputz
