Would You Hurt/kill Your Abusers?

[Ujig]

Jofih here, and I meant to say Someone else took it out of our hands.

 

[Eca]

No. I wouldn't hurt or kill them. It's not in my nature to do so, and they wouldn't be an exception to my nature. I don't know if that makes me strong, or weak.

 

[Jiki]

@Jofih That is exactly the sort of scenario I was getting at originally.

Turns out I would stop them.

 

[Pubij]

No. Like the poster above, I am very much against violence and the death penalty...however...a friend of mine's daughter was murdered about 7 years ago - it really shook my convictions about the death penalty. If my children were to ever be harmed by someone (either abused the way I was or murdered), I would probably change my mind on this.

 

[Wisumo]

My abuser died of cancer in 1980. Otherwise, yes, he would be toast.

 

[Eloh]

No. I visualize it. I choose not to allow myself to be an abuser as well.

 

[Agijec]

No.

 

[Ocuz]

(If he were still alive) I would stick my foot so far up his @$$, the water on my knee would quench his THIRST.

 

[Mipof]

In a moment of insanity, I would. Slowly and in the most cruel way I could come up.
I have seen so many dreams about it, day and night.

Yes, when I was a kid, at 9, this ended up being the only route considered before my parents divorced. Take away the biggest threat ,my father who abused my mother, and maybe then she would stop taking her anger out on me.

The divorce and getting older only changed her from physical to verbal. And only the school seeing my bruised knuckles one day stopped my mother and step father from using a long wooden ruler on me when I talked back. Among other things.

Best solution now that I'm an adult and have kids of my own, is distance. Have not seen my father since I was12. And have not seen my mother and step father in a year. I'm OK with it, they don't know why or understand my being no contact right now. With distance, world is a big place.

It occurred to me yesterday that I think many of us would happily harm one another's abusers, but our own relationships to our abusers complicates it to the point where it becomes generally unfathomable.

(Mocifi here) Agreements on 'complicated', though personally all of those complications are superficial, and still more about what I can do or can't to outside influence, than 'not doable'. I don't discriminate, I hate everyone's bastards equally and for all I care I'd happily ship them to a collective hell.
