High school bully ..should i handle it myself?

Do it man, beat his ***. I used to get picked on by the biggest kid in my cl, until one day i shoved him up against a wall and told him that i would rip his ******* head off if he ever talked to me again. Guess what, he doesn't. hasnt spoken to me since frosh year. Just be aggressive and menacing for starters, and if that doesnt work, ruff him up a little. Usually scaring them straight works just fine. Bullies are usually cowards.
