same. But it's not fear of God that keeps me from doing it. It's the dread of going to prison.
Just like Taco Guy. He knows there are no tacos in prison so he lives life in such a way to avoid prison.
For me I'd say its a mix of legal repercussions AND knowing that murder is wrong and that a society that allows it isnt really a safe society to be a part of, so while someone might be being awful enough to me that the thought crossed my mind, maybe I should go find somewhere to cool down. But, like you said, god had nothing to do with any of that
The legal repercussions would be a secondary thing to me. I have no problem breaking an unjust law if I think I can do so. I do not feel the slightest bit of guilt violating drug laws.
If I murdered someone? I wouldn't be able to live with the guilt.
True, and since probably neither of us are in the heat of murderous anger right now, let's think back to that time we HAVE been in the heat of murderous anger, And I'm telling you, that sonofabitch DESERVES it, right?! He COMPLETELY DESTROYED my life and he KNOWS it, and he will never even acknowledge it or apologize. Even now the only reason I'd regret following through with this ideation is the dread of prison and losing all my freedoms forever. But yeah, these guys are safe, at least from MY wrath. I moved 2000 miles away. But surely they fuck up a lot of things and a LOT of people are equally angry at them, so hopefully karma does its thing with them.
This comment is a bit of a ride. I'm not super sure what the end point of it was, but I send hugs regardless.
LOL thank you, I was just venting. I don't get any opportunities whatsoever to vent about that particular issue that's always quite a bit of PTSD. Thank you for the hugs. I'm a good person that did not deserve to be wronged by those two people.
I can empathize with that, and I'm happy to have been an ear when you needed it. People can be unnecessarily cruel at times.
