was it something I said?

In the horrible situation that someone you love has been raped or viciously attacked so that they have a permanent injury would you take revenge on the person responsible?Although it would give me a great deal of immediate personal satisfaction, I'd probably not seek revenge. I'm not about to spend time in prison for killing a scuzzball. I'm worth more than that. Even more importantly I feel I would be deserting the person I love. Even though it would be damn hard I would choose to be there for them, consoling them, whatever. Damn hard.

I have savage thoughts when I am pissed off, and for good or ill, I get angrier about abuse of animals rather than abuse of people. It isn't that I think animals are more important, I just get more emotional about them. That said, my savagery tends to stay inside my head; I don't know if it would emerge into action under any circumstances.

Sure looked like you rolling people over to get at the sales.
If the person were dealt with by the courts sufficiently and locked away from the rest of society, I wouldn't pursue vengeance. I wouldn't want to waste my life away on such an awful person.
