[Ace Otana]

Can't stand violent criminals. Makes me wanna go out and buy a crossbow so to hunt them down with. That's my idea of justice.

I feel the same way. It's funny because I can't stand senseless violence (committed for "fun" or monetary gain). Yet, I condone violent retribution, in some cases. I don't think I could ever bring myself to be that kind of violent, unless it was in defense of a loved one, but I surely understand why people do it.

I honestly could shoot a yob with a crossbow and not flinch(even a little). Couldn't do it to anyone else. It has to be someone so horrifically evil as to use senseless violence for financial gain or enjoyment. I don't accept violence, but will apply it in self defense of my self, friends and family.
I can be violent but it's because I use reason that I don't. Had this one arsehole in school who kept pushing me, though I had the huge temptation to deck him, I didn't. Because I believed that I was better than that. However, sometimes violence is necessary. If you don't hit back, they'll keep pushing and assume that your a walk over. I guess it depends on how you look at it.
