Do you think there is a time in your life when you shouldn't be afraid of anyone?

Question

As children, some people were afraid to stand up for themselves and speak their minds. Do you think we should dismiss our fear of people once we are older? I'm talking about regular people not rapists, murderers or robbers (we should be wary of them). All perspectives welcome.

Answer 1

fear can be motivator but it can also be crippling so i don't have time for it..besides i live in one of those areas where if something violent happened you'd hear about it where ever you were..we are just one of those places..like Columbine.

Answer 2

No, if this were to happen we'd all be vigilantes. If you don't fear consequences, what will keep you in check?
