I'm afraid I still believe there are two sides to this story. Conflicts
often do. Don't you wonder why anyone would be tempted to do something like
this.
Also, I never said killing of any kind is ever justified. I was just
wondering what the options of "retaliation" were and what good they'd do.
I'm sure many others share your contempt for culprits of such crimes against
humanity as we've seen today, but I never said that their actions or actions
such as this are justified. I was simply wondering the reason behind them.
And I'll continue not assuming, nor accepting that any person could murder
for a "riotous" (you meant righteous, right?) reason. Like I said above, I
don't think murder can ever vindicated. I was simply asking the reason. So
have I committed blasphemy? Should I spin the wheel of morality?
