There was yet another extremly violent incident last night, involving my friends and some really really cheap fighters. I can't even believe some of the stuff these people did.
There are unwritten rules when it comes to fighting, that up until now I have assumed were pretty solid. This means no cheap shots, no hitting a person when they're already down, no using weapons, don't beat the shit out of someone smaller then you, and you don't gang up on a small group of people. None of these rules were abided by last night, and the outcome was several of my friends ended up in hospital.
I just can't get over it. This inspires me to do something; not to fight, but to do something to make it stop. But I have no idea what I can do. This never ending battle between Kimberley and Cranbrook, or Kimberley Hicks vs. Punks needs to stop.
I have no problem with any people from Cranbrook. Infact some of my best friends live there. The one person who insists on causing shit is from Kimberley, and I didn't let it bother me until my friends started to get hurt, and now that it has gotten there, it can't be ignored. Actually, I can't say I have no problem with any people from Cranbrook, because I have a serious problem with the boys who jumped on the bandwagon and sucker punched my friend for being from Kimberley. Other then that, Cranbrook people are good times.
I have few issues with the Kimberley "Hicks." My only issues lie in the way I was treated throughout my earlier years in school, but I really have grown up and realized we were all immature. Many of them have apologized, and its fine now. I think the only real problem, was there were some fights that took place, again, earlier in high school. Now we have all grown up, graduated (It's been a year now) and become individuals. We are all out for the same thing; we are just looking to have fun. I also have friends who hang out with this group, and they are awesome.
So why are these fueds still being fought? It must be arrising from false information. Some outsider must be fueling it, trying to see what they can start because they are so pathetic and lifeless, that their idea of fun is seeing innocent people get hurt. Innocent people like Calvin, Nate, Matt, Rich, Thad, Jake and Scott.
One of my best friends said to me tonight that she needed to learn how to fight, just incase she was ever faced with it. It saddens me that she has to, she is innocent, kind and friendly, but she feels like she needs to learn to protect herself physically because none of her amazing traits will help her when someone just wants to fight for the hell of it.
I just wish there was a way to make this all stop. We are all in this together, we are all looking to enjoy our youth and get out alive, but recently it has been like a war.
I remember a night when me and my good friends sat around laughing about how this generation needs a good revolution. I think promoting nonviolence, and stopping all this hatred between social groups might be what we were looking for.
If anyone is with me, please let me know.
Love,
Annalee.
