My Mom told me, 'Don't be scared of anybody. And if you're getting beat up, pick something up, smash 'em with it. No matter what it is, a bottle, a brick, anything.' She was telling me what I need to know cause better somebody else get hit with the bottle then me.

She's just watching out for me. If they know you're not a punk, they won't really mess with you, they'll go the next person that's a punk and start beating them up embarrassing them in front of girls and stuff.
