Things happened yesterday

It is easy to get involved in the conflict nowadays and especially on the teenagers. I went to play basketball with my friends and we went to a new basketball court. The basketball court is good and the environment is pretty comfortable to us. My brother, my friend, and I soon prepared and won our first game. We had a very high morale. We continued this high morale and won the second game. The conflict started from here. There was a young kid looked like only 18 or younger started to have some arguments with my brother. All we knew that the kid was immature and we did not want to get involved to this. But that kid started to have some body contact with us. It is common that we all have some body contact when we are in the game. It is inevitable. But this young kid made it intentionally. He kept elbowing me even I didn’t get the ball. The problem is that he had a fight with my brother, but why would he do this to me. It is very weird and I was pissed by this kid. We lost the game and we discussed about this situation. We all think that this young kid is very immature and we got ourselves well controlled. When it was our turn, we grasped every chance and scored. We beat the young kid and won in the end. The story is not in the end. After that young kid, I thought the night would become easier. But later on came an aboriginal saying he wanted to play with us. We agreed and started to play. Here comes another conflict. The aboriginal was caught by us that he had a violation on traveling. We caught him many times and made it clear that he should not do that. He then became angry and said traveling would not be caught by the referee of the NBA. It is ridiculous. My brother told him that we are in Taiwan, not in the NBA. Every one of us can see the intense atmosphere. The aboriginal was angry and made every movement threatening. One of his teammates became to push me and made some “inevitable body contact.” I thought to myself: what had happened this night. What had causing this to me. I just want to exercise and have a wonderful night. After receiving this unfair treatment, I started to play the way they were. I started to push them as well and finally we won the game. If the night didn’t happen such things would be better. Are these kids irrational? I think the answer is yes. We are on the basketball court and it is like the miniature of the society. We have to follow the rules. But these kids even doubt about what we said to them. It was ridiculous that the aboriginal saying that it wouldn’t be caught in the NBA. It is fun that the person said that. On the other side, that was ineffable and ridiculous. Are they not well taught? I don’t think so. The only problem is themselves. They apply the concept on everything and think it will be suitable. I think in this society should correct this kind of mind. Otherwise they will make the same mistakes over and over again.
