Maybe not....wouldn't even be my concern. Upholding my sense of morality wouldn't be the objective. The goal would be to get it done...and find the kid. People that abduct and rape children forfeit any and all moral consideration in my opinion.

If someone kidnapped my nieces, and I caught him, you'd be sure I'd make him regret touching them. It would be wrong, but I can't say I would never do it.

Messing with kids, I believe, is something that will get you killed in jail too. even other convicts don't want you around.
