We should teach children to resolve verbal conflicts without physical retaliation, not reward behavior of escalation to physical violence
You’re doing the far-right bullshit thing of treating the fact that a position requires (gasp) human judgment as an argument against the position itself. “Who gets to decide what’s fair?” “Who gets to decide what constitutes harm?” “Who gets to decide what’s reasonable?” They act like these are impossible questions that somehow invalidate the whole idea. If you’re an adult and have any confidence in your own morality, you should be able to make judgment calls. I promise it really isn’t an impossible dilemma unless you’re a moral relativist coward.
The problem is that lots of adults have confidence in their own morality, but they don’t agree. So if you allow violence to enforce your own moral code, then you have to recognize that they will do it too.

Calling someone a “whore” isn’t a disagreement, it’s violence.
Slurs should be met with direct violence EVERY time.
Who decides what a slur is?
Anyone with a brain. It’s not a complicated thing to understand.
What about the people without a brain who think they have a brain? Should they get to decide?
Have fun being stupid, stupid.
I’m going to assume you are intentionally supporting my point, as opposed to unintentionally.
Please refer to my previous comment.
Not the trash on this site.
I do.

You mean the ones who already are? Sure. It’s about time they found out.
Lots and lots of people will “find out” if there is open season on certain words defined by whoever. That’s why we agree not to.
Fuck that shit. Look at the president! Punch them in the fucking head.
