Bullies cannot be appeased, as a matter of principle.

When a bully is appeased, s/he will continue to bully.

While one person might have the strength and conviction
to choose to turn the other cheek, the bully's next victim
may not turn the other cheek by choice.

People who cannot defend themselves against evil,
deserve the support of those who can.

"Qui tacet consentiret." Silence gives consent.
