    Scarface is not just a example of turning his own life around. He's an example and role model for all of us to be better, to do better. He allows people who usually resort to violence to settle things in a safer more complete way. But, what he's really teaching us, is to be humble, to forgive, to let go of anger and move forward in a positive way. Good job Scarface.

    Where I grew up, male or female, this is how you solved your beefs. Sometimes people's fathers would supervise just to make sure no one brought pieces or knives. However, it wasn't a spectator sport like this.. And we were taught to try to solve beefs with words first.
    This started when we were MUCH younger though.. After I knocked out a much taller guy for trying to get my lil bro to smoke, my Dad signed me up for boxing lessons. It's a passion. People definitely don't expect it from a 5'2" girl everyone calls Tink.
