I got in a fight with my cousin - was I wrong?

I don't get on well with him, and last night I hit him in the face after an argument and broke his nose. He came back a few hours after from the hospital and said that he might have to live with a bent nose for good now. But I don't care, I don't really care about nothing people.
Was I wrong to get in a fight with him?

Hitting people is not ok, in fact its bad regardless of the reason you hit that person/animal/object/wall.
Why are you asking if you dont care?
this reminds me of me and my dad (without the hitting part)
but we argue non stop and i feel nothing towards him,
but ive learnt at the end of the day hes my dad. my blood
and no matter what i say or do he will always love me.
just with you and your cousin you will always be related no matter how much you hate him. you might as well just be the bigger person and walk away if he starts annoying you or trying to start and argument just ignore him and go away from him.
Yes, no matter how angry you are it's wrong to start fights. And it can also be potentially dangerous for yourself in the future if you were to meet a stronger oppononent that won't hesitate to resiprocate, if you are prone to start fights during arguments.
The first thing you should do is to apologize if it was you that hit first and only, which from what I read seems to be the case here. Don't be too surprised if he chooses to press charges either.
I just want to know if what I did was ethical or not.
I'd think it's bad to physically attack an animal, but thanks anyway for your comment.
I don't think I can apologise, nor do I want to. As I said, I consider him as a nothing, so apologies aren't relevant here.
He just annoys me. He's lacks confidence and is a burden on others.
...what do you think?
:eek2:
Pot..... Kettle.....
:eek2:
I don't think it's unethical. but I just want opinions about this.
What do you mean? I'm not a burden on anybody.
I don't really care. That would be his problem, not mine.
Hitting people is wrong, particularly if they didn't show any violence towards you, and your reason for him "being a shit" is pathetic, imo. I am finding it increasingly difficult to believe that you are genuine.
Exactly, all the OP wants is someone to say 'Yeah, what you did was ok' so they can feel better about themselves for breaking someone's nose :rolleyes:
Piece of rubbish. Sorry to say, but you seem to lack emphaty for other people completely? Ok, so he lacks confidence and you think he's a burden to others, but how on earth does hitting someone solve that? There are people that annoys me too, but it doesn't mean I'd hit them unless we're talking about self defense.
For what you know, your cousin might have had a hard time earlier in life or something like that, and you're not making that better with starting a fight with your cousin.
Hope he has the guts to drag your ass to court. If it was me, I'd sue you for every penny you own.
But surely you are used to that by now?
Maybe he thinks you are a shit too? But he didn't see the need to break you a bone. Kudos to him to not hitting you back. If the only reason for you to hit him, was because of an argument and because you think low of him, then I think you did a terrible mistake.
you broke his fucking nose out of spite and asking if it was ethical? What are you? A cave(wo)man?
