How do I override soft deletes within laravel
<p>For my seeders I want to be able to truncate my tables, unfortunately there are some bound by foreign keys and additionally there are some that have soft deletes enabled.</p>

<p>To get around the inability to truncate a table based on soft deletes I am simply saying foreach Model::all() delete that model.. Maybe there is a better way? However for the tables that have soft deletes it isn't actually removing the record. How do I get around soft deletes when I really want to delete the record?</p>
