On the night of August 25, 2012, a young man caused public outrage when he sat on the "old, weak, sick and disabled seat" and refused to give up his seat to an elderly man. In the ensuing verbal confrontation, the boy was punched and kicked by two other men.

April 12, 2015, Ningbo, a middle school girl said after school bus home, due to physiological discomfort failed to give a few elderly people to give up their seats and was scolded for crying. The old man said she not only read poor character is also poor, but also took away her school license plate said to find the school leadership.

Giving up a seat on a bus is a moral issue, and hitting someone is a legal issue. The man had no obligation to give up his seat, and the man had no right to "justify" his violence.

In other words, the man who gave up his seat, was justified in doing so? The first is not to discuss the news that the boy is disabled, even if he is a normal person, not to let the seat does not mean that he is morally corrupt, to be punished by everyone. If he really has some reasons why he can't give up his seat, can you take responsibility for your own behavior?

The bus is not necessarily immoral. People who don't give up their seats aren't necessarily all morally inferior; maybe they're sick or maybe they have another reason.

The issue of giving up your seat should be a voluntary behavior, take the initiative to give up your seat on public transportation for special passengers, can only say that this is a worthy of promotion of personal virtues, after all, who have old people in their homes, who have the old, in the best of their ability to step in to help out, contributing to a beautiful cycle, and when you get old to get the same kind of goodwill in return is not it beautiful, and of course, this is also a beautiful vision.

But public transportation is not social morality, not to mention legal obligations, do not have to impose this on society as a whole, one can uphold the inner moral standards require themselves to do good, but can not force others to do good.

The "disadvantaged" can't see giving up their seats as a legal requirement as strict behavior, and don't adopt some extreme ways to ask others to give up their seats. In traditional Chinese culture, the promotion of respect for the elderly, mutual social customs, the initiative to give up their seats should be respected; but in modern civilized society, the same should also respect the rights of others do not let the seat
