Mizrael, I have to disagree with that. What makes a bully a bully is that he/she initiates things for nefarious purposes. It's not the tools or techniques that they use, it's the motive. Option 4 refers to tools and techniques. If someone draws a gun on you and in response you draw a gun on them it is self defense - not premeditated murder. You may have elected to use the same technique to defend yourself that they used to attack you, but the motive is the defining factor. A gun. Aggressive behavior. Kindness. Sarcasm. All are a means to an end (motive). The end (motive) is what makes the difference between a hero and a bully.

Before they made me they broke the mold!
