is revenge ever the right answer?

[Rally]

go on some tangent about revenge vs. justice

[SetGaming]

Don't think so. It's always more mature to have someone with more experience/has a job to do so for you - not because you're a wuss, but because they most likely know how to handle it better.

[Lego lad]

I don't believe that revenge is helpful.

Not the right answer, but a somewhat rewarding one.
Depends if you can get off to the misfortune of another I spose.

[ThatRandomGuy]

in my opinion it depends on what they did.

Always. Treat people the way they treat you.

[Nonnel]

sometimes it's justified
usually not

Revenge is always the answer as long as the harm done is equal to the harm inflicted.
Should you go overboard, you will fall to the dark. Should you not follow "eye for eye, tooth for tooth", you're a loving hippie jedi.

yes

[Quote Story]

seriously doubt you can pull that off

aka you just kill them

[Katadeus]

"eye for eye, tooth for tooth"

You do realize that this expression is scorned now as an ancient mistake that perpetuates conflict instead of resolving it?
We have built up a criminal justice system everywhere but like forgetin somalia and they're working on it and it takes care of things in a way that is deliberate and in great part removed from bias.

If revenge is ever the answer, it is merely the coincidence of justice and emotional response. There is no reason to hold revenge as a useful construct.
