I'm going to be a bit of a faggot about this for now because of the amount of Rule 2 violations, and the number of people calling for violence all at once. Every once in a while there's a big push for rage-bait and calls for violence. Sometimes it seems like a concerted effort rather than a random effect. Considering that glow-fags are a thing, this is a line that needs to be maintained.
This is a normal and healthy reaction to evil. Suppressing such reactions is part of how our society has degraded to the state we're in. You can't simply write off every organic surge in a desire for meaningful consequences as a result of malicious agitators. At some point suppressing the expression of that desire for meaningful punishments for wrongdoing crosses the threshold into active endorsement of the wrongdoing. I don't know if we're there yet Dom, but your insistence on enforcing all of the reddit baggage on this site makes me think we're rather close to that threshold as a baseline.
It is absolutely not a healthy reaction to draw and quarter anyone. Even if we were to argue about a sense of justice and closure, that doesn't come from mutilation and torture. Just recently a criminal was given death by firing squad in Florida, and the police did not drink his blood, dismember his corpse, or bludgeon a family member with the body parts of the criminal. This is because we are not insane savages. His execution was the ending of his life and the recognition that he can no longer harm another person, and no amount of Leftist True Crime documentaries from the Innocence project will get him out.
Rejecting wrongdoing for the sake of punishing wrongdoing is the opposite of endorsing wrongdoing.
A healthy reaction would not to be rage baited, and to move on and make positive and affirmative steps to make the world a better place around you with a sense of love, discipline, and justice in your heart. None of that involves chopping people into pieces.

Be less of a faggot about this.

But why?
