I am never moving to Venezuela.

[–]taway30[S] 32 ポイント33 ポイント

never. We are starting plans to move out today

[–]smokey_dokey 10 ポイント11 ポイント

Good luck. I am sorry for what you went through.

[–]Programmer_Trainee 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I hope you succeed in your endeavors.

[–]Programmer_Trainee 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Why would you even think about doing it?!

[–]TH3_GR3G 63 ポイント64 ポイント

Holy God dude. I don't even know what to think.

[–]silverfox762 19 ポイント20 ポイント

You might start by thinking "It sucks admitting to myself that I'd never be able to do something like this when there's no justice without paying bribes, even if someone raped my girlfriend, daughter, mother, etc., no matter how much some motherfucker deserved it."

Or not. You'd be surprised what you're capable of when you have to be.

[–]taway30[S] 30 ポイント31 ポイント

Founding out what you are capable, is not a pleasurable thing

[–]Apocalypticoreo 8 ポイント9 ポイント

I hope you take solace in knowing that those capabilities were only revealed in defense of another, and only after society failed you. It had to be done.

[–]ColinMichaelRisley 3 ポイント4 ポイント

It did not have to be done.

[–]Lemanjello_Shepard -2 ポイント-1 ポイント

It was not in defense of another. The crime had long since passed. This was retaliatory and premeditated. In the US, an open and shut case, pending what evidence is collected.

[–]TheRighteousTyrant 4 ポイント5 ポイント

It was not in defense of another.

It's unlikely that the fiancee was the first victim, or that she'd have been the last had the attacker lived.

But there is truth in your statement, as well.

[–]Lemanjello_Shepard 2 ポイント3 ポイント

Yes, but you do not know that for certain. That is just speculation, but warranted. In this particular event, the victim was long since gone.

Instead of beating the guy, give him the Theon Greyjoy surgical procedure.

[–]Apocalypticoreo 2 ポイント3 ポイント

Do you seriously believe someone lacking in empathy enough to attempt rape would not be willing to try it again? Had he been successful, and had he been taken to court for it would he have not been executed? Either way, society found a way to remove him. Unfortunately it wasn't done the clean way, thanks to the apathy of the police in this situation.

[–]Lemanjello_Shepard -1 ポイント0 ポイント

I did not say that. Silly jumping to conclusions, but the fact remains that you do not know their story.

[–]silverfox762 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I do know. While it's happening, it can be exhilarating. Afterward, it's the kind of shit you think about when you're alone, when it's quiet, and when you are examining who you are in the world.

[–]NLratboy 3 ポイント4 ポイント

Read again buddy. He said enter HER car.

[–]cocainfancy 0 ポイント1 ポイント

My bad. My blunder.

[–]Ehlmaris 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Re-read it. He states the guy on the motorcycle told her to get in HER car. It was a robbery, a car-jacking, and an attempted rape all in one.

[–]taway30[S] 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Misunderstanding here. She was going to HER car. The guy in the motorcycle gun-pointed at her, left the motorcycle next to the car, and made her hop into the car while threatening her

[–]JustBelowAverage 2 ポイント3 ポイント

After reading that, gotta just think of kittens..

[–]FancySack 0 ポイント1 ポイント

/r/offmychest just got real.

[–]Lord_of_the_cries 58 ポイント59 ポイント

When given the opportunity, what do we do to those who hurt the ones we love?

[–]Graphitetshirt 29 ポイント30 ポイント

Calm down Littlefinger

[–]FancySack 1 ポイント2 ポイント

eww

[–]shiskebob 2 ポイント3 ポイント

[–]theleonious 12 ポイント13 ポイント

I would like for this not to be true

[–]taway30[S] 8 ポイント9 ポイント

sorry

[–]Thetakishi 13 ポイント14 ポイント

Take it to the grave, and just know that you have that power in you. Get some help from a professional if it's really affecting you, otherwise try to get on with your daily life and not think about the things that were forced to be done because of a bad situation.

[–]taway30[S] 4 ポイント5 ポイント

im already setting up an appointment with a psychologist.

[–]Jedesikus 2 ポイント3 ポイント

I know that there's doctor-patient confidentiality, but how does that work when you killed someone? It should still be the same, but I would always feel paranoid about walking into an appointment and seeing police ready to take me.

[–]taway30[S] 1 ポイント2 ポイント

I know the psychiatrist, its a family friend. When my father died, he treated my sister (she was devastated). I know him, and I know that, living in the same country, and he, being married, will understand and will do the right thing.

If the right thing for him to do, is to send me to jail, its ok, I mean, I did murder someone, and I deserve it.

[–]silverfox762 8 ポイント9 ポイント

I swear to god I never felt so alive, I beat him to death with a crowbar I had in my trunk.

Yup. You'll never forget the smell, by the way.

[–]taway30[S] 3 ポイント4 ポイント

I haven't noticed until you mentioned it... oh fuck

[–]silverfox762 1 ポイント2 ポイント

Sorry. I figured you wouldn't need reminding.

[–]arinot 14 ポイント15 ポイント

Honestly I'd have done the same at that point.

What I mean is people always have friends. Keeping him alive likely would've ended with HIM trying to track you down.

Maybe hunting him down at the start was a bad idea

But what you did was likely the safest course of action past that point.

But you'll pay for it by knowing you killed a man who couldn't fight back.

Ain't much else I can say man.

[–]taway30[S] 6 ポイント7 ポイント

that's what scared me. He had the wallet of my fiancée, her id, her phone, her laptop... everything... I couldn't risk if he or some friend was tech savvy.

[–]Voyezlesprit 22 ポイント23 ポイント

On one side I feel I should congratulate you...

But on the other you killed a dude for $800 & enjoyed it.

Nothing is black and white I guess. I'll just let this pass without anything but this introspective comment.

Good luck.

[–]D_Knight8 23 ポイント24 ポイント

You didn't do the right thing, but if I was in the same situation, I would do the same thing. Any of us would. You helped future victims that probably would have had it worse.

[–]taway30[S] 8 ポイント9 ポイント

I know it wasn't the right thing to do, what worries me is that I didn't shoot him, instantly, I wanted him to feel every bit of pain he caused and the pain he would have caused, I wanted him to pay for every bad thing this country has done onto me.

Im already setting an appointment with a psychiatrist

[–]D_Knight8 3 ポイント4 ポイント

Good for you for going to a psychiatrist and not letting this drag your life down. I wish you the best.

[–]revofire 1 ポイント2 ポイント

Could have just shot him instead of torture him. None of you read that detailed part? Not like he didn't have a gun. This is sick.

[–]greyarea_ 0 ポイント1 ポイント

He wanted to make this man realize what he did to his wife and make him suffer. Simply shooting him isn't "justice" to OP.

[–]D_Knight8 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I read the torturing part, and the attempted rapist also tortured the gf by driving her around with a gun pointed at her head, and making her undress with the obvious attempt to rape her in mind. Or is that not considered a form of torture?

[–]ohyeeeeeeeeeeah 4 ポイント5 ポイント

You people are fucking sick. The fact that you are actually trying to say he was in the right for torturing a man he knew nothing at all about is just absurd.

How many of us know what it's like to be so down in life that kidnapping and robbery is our only option left? What happens when your family is starving and there are no jobs? This idea that every person should magically have the morals of a 1st world person at birth needs to stop.

Just pathetic.

[–]HolyCheezus 1 ポイント2 ポイント

I understand that some people may have to resort to thievery to survive, but there is no excuse for rape.

I don't think what OP did was right, but I don't necessarily feel sorry for the man he killed either.

[–]ohyeeeeeeeeeeah 0 ポイント1 ポイント

No where am I saying rape is okay, I'm just trying to get people to realize that there are reasons why people turn to hard crime and most of the time it is some pretty fucked up stuff.

[–]smfinator 0 ポイント1 ポイント

When is rape your "only option left?"

[–]markuspoop -4 ポイント-3 ポイント

Fart

[–]Baby_venomm 0 ポイント1 ポイント

how is that not the right thing?

[–]Icanflyplanes 18 ポイント19 ポイント

Some people believe that the right thing = following the law, and some people believe the right thing = the thing that feels good, morals are in a grey area.

In reality, I guess it's all relative.

[–]Baby_venomm 8 ポイント9 ポイント

I feel like there is no morality in a place like that though

[–]Icanflyplanes 9 ポイント10 ポイント

Exactly, the law = the "right" thing, is Out of Order in that place.

It just means that whatever laws are in place are not getting followed, resulting in the "justice" you and I from western cultures have been brought up with, is non-existing in those countries.

Simply resulting in people dishing out justice the way they see fit, and to us it seems wrong, but really, who are we to judge? we don't have to worry about those things, we have no worries that can be compared to OPs, although we have problems, everyone does despite their place in life, his are just in a different league.

Morals =/= The right thing to do. - sometimes, doing the bad stuff feels right.

[–]Baby_venomm 1 ポイント2 ポイント

I completely agree!!

[–]Baby_venomm 3 ポイント4 ポイント

yeah I agree

[–]MineDrac 2 ポイント3 ポイント

It depends on your sense of "right".

If you look at it literally, the man caused major emotional harm to his fiance, nothing physical because she got away. The to-be-husband on the other hand took a man's life.

Because of the country they live in, the corruption, and shotty police these crimes fall into a grey area of morally right, morally wrong, and morally justifiable. In the end though, it's up to everyone to have their own views on whether this is right, wrong, or justifiable.

[–]MiowaraTomokato 2 ポイント3 ポイント

Just because he took justice into his own hands because his government will not doesn't necessarily mean he did the right thing. I'm not saying I don't agree with his course of action, but he killed someone. That is wrong. And there may be unforseen consequences to his actions. Maybe the guy had a brother or friend who will start looking for him, and this may come back to haunt op in worse ways. Maybe nothing will happen to him. Maybe this was the best course of action possible. But it still wasn't the right thing to do. And that's okay. Don't moralize his action and say he was justified in what he did. Life is not black and white. When we accept responsibility for our actions, it keeps us from justifying horrible, horrible things. What op did was wrong. And he should admit that to himself. Which he did.

[–]Baby_venomm 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Life is gray so you shouldn't try to make this is unjustified. If it's not black and white why is murder always wrong? You don't live in Venezula and wouldn't know what it's like to live in a place with no morals

[–]MiowaraTomokato 1 ポイント2 ポイント

You're missing my point, but that's okay. Murder is wrong. And sometimes we have to do the wrong thing, which may be the best thing to do at that time. You are taking offense to being told his actions were wrong. He beat another human being to death. That's wrong. If we all pat this guy on the back and say "Right on!" we become no better than a pack of wolves. We're not a bunch of psychopathic murders, but when we justify every murder and claim its the right thing to do, down the road future murders will become increasingly viewed as "the right thing to do." You tell me I don't understand the lawlessness of another country, and I'm telling you we should strive to be more empathetic, compassionate human beings. Let us, and op, learn from his mistakes. Maybe a close brush with death could have reformed his wife's attacker. Maybe he would gone to rob and rape many other women. Maybe nothing would have happened. Maybe killing him was the best thing to do. We will never know. It doesn't really matter. Killing begets more killing. Let's not perpetuate the cycle of murder and say "Someone was murder, it was wrong, that's okay, what's done is done, let's try not to murder people in the future because its wrong," okay?

[–]D_Knight8 1 ポイント2 ポイント

Morally speaking, killing another person when you're completely aware of what you're doing is still murder. He said he can't tell his gf and it could really get to him later on and alter his life a bit, but like I said, I would have done the same thing.

[–]Darkrell 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Murder is never the right thing, no matter the excuse, there is a difference between Justice and Vengeance and that was it.

[–]Baby_venomm -3 ポイント-2 ポイント

your opinion. I think killing someone is okay in the right situation

[–]Darkrell 1 ポイント2 ポイント

I didn't say kill, of course sometimes it is justified, but murder is a little different, this was straight up intent to kill for vengeance, not self defense or because you are in the military or anything

[–]Baby_venomm 0 ポイント1 ポイント

maybe vengeance is good

[–]Shitty_Human_Being 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Sure as hell feels good.

[–]Darkrell 0 ポイント1 ポイント

If he did the same thing in the US he would be in jail for the rest of his life, is vengeance good then? Abandoning your family and loved ones for a bit of revenge?

[–]Baby_venomm 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Laws do not mean anything

[–]girlminuslife 14 ポイント15 ポイント

If this is not true, it's a well-written story. If it is true, you are an idiot for confessing to murder on the internet.

[–]MasonJarTeaDrinker 5 ポイント6 ポイント

It's in Venezuela though, they aren't going to care.

[–]taway30[S] 4 ポイント5 ポイント

Even if I get 1 response that could make me know what should I have to do, or where to go now, it will be worth it.

[–]Smirra 0 ポイント1 ポイント

move to sweden. it's cold during most of the year but you wouldn't regret it.

[–]st31r -1 ポイント0 ポイント

Fine.

You're human. I've rewritten this a dozen times but every time it comes back to this: what you did, what you've found yourself capable of doing, is human. Civilization has enabled people to forget, to become a herd, when in reality we are a pack: we are predators playing at being sheep. If you fight your nature, you will lose. You must find a balance, you must become one person made of two halves.

As for the whole morality/justice angle, well that's actually quite simple:

Morality is purely subjective and thus worthless to discussion. Everyone's right, nobody's wrong. It's literally a worthless construct.

Justice on the other hand is much more concrete and satisfying, and is absolutely nothing like most people believe it to be. Justice is a system created by human society for the benefit of the whole society. Thus we have the fundamental laws - don't kill, don't steal, don't rape etc - not because of morality, but simply because without them organized society couldn't exist on any kind of scale at all.

In order to enforce these laws a society must establish a monopoly on violence: that only one entity (law enforcement) has the legal right to use violence against the population. This is why vigilante justice can never be legal, because it erodes the fundamental infrastructure of justice that enables society to exist.

And finally, that's why the legality/justice of your actions is inconsequential. Venezuelan law enforcement are illegitimate - the infrastructure of society they were supposed to protect, justice, they have instead eroded even further.

I know you're going through a difficult transformation right now, and you'll have to find your own way. But don't forget your fiancee; she'll need you, but you'll need her more I think.

[–]S-D-J 3 ポイント4 ポイント

Never tell her. Never. She will not forgive you, even if she wants to. No one can change what you've done, but don't ever burden her or anyone else you care about with the truth.

[–]Vanhaydin 2 ポイント3 ポイント

I am an American living in Rio de Janeiro.. my husband is Brazilian. He worries for me every single day, and I know that if we were in your situation, he'd do the same for me.

Sometimes people don't understand that's it's just not the same world here.

[–]Ratsarecool 13 ポイント14 ポイント

You know what...If this is real...You did the world a justice...Good on you...

[–]taway30[S] 16 ポイント17 ポイント

doesn't feel like justice to me

[–]Iwanttofuckadigimon 4 ポイント5 ポイント

Venezuela, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras are all really fucked up places to live. Welcome to Central America.

[–]dan_kase 1 ポイント2 ポイント

I don't even know what to say.

[–]Miroudias 2 ポイント3 ポイント

Didn't we have another guy confess to a murder on Reddit recently?

[–]TheSurgeMeister 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I'm pretty sure you're talking about this one that happened a little over a year ago.

[–]subject_usrname_here 4 ポイント5 ポイント

Standing ovation to you, sir.

[–]i-node 4 ポイント5 ポイント

You are sure it was even the right guy? You could have killed an innocent person.

[–]MasonJarTeaDrinker 3 ポイント4 ポイント

he started crying telling me that he was poor and he needed to rob her to eat, and he didn't want to rape her, just to scare her a little

That's what that guy said, unless he admitted it to just get out of it?

[–]i-node 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Never can tell, that is why vigilante justice is immoral. The person doing it is too partial to find out the truth. Maybe the courts where he is from are broken but what if he was innocent? He just killed a guy.

[–]MasonJarTeaDrinker 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I know, if this is legit it's pretty crazy...You know what though, I don't know what I would do in that situation, but seeing my wife, mom or sister naked and crying because she was almost raped, by this guy. IDK, that might make me do some fucked up stuff, probably not torture though, that was too "Hostel" (Film) for me.

[–]taway30[S] 1 ポイント2 ポイント

I AM sure it was.

[–]Apocalypticoreo 0 ポイント1 ポイント

He did show her the pictures to make sure.

[–]minastirith1 2 ポイント3 ポイント

Is this real life? What the fuck did I just read.

[–]revofire 1 ポイント2 ポイント

Dude.. I know you want to get it off your chest but wow... that is NOT cool. However this sounds a bit more like a troll story than a real one (the way you worded it). Regardless this is really effed up and I can never condone MURDER.

You didn't kill the guy, you tortured him first. Woulda been better if you just killed him with the gun!

[–]taway30[S] 5 ポイント6 ポイント

I completely understand it sounds like a troll, its something like, really hard to read, and even harder to tell. My wording may be because English is not my native language, and im not really good at it, and I apologize for that.

What you said there, the fact I didn't kill him with the gun is what is really worrying me. I cant stop thinking about it, why, if I had the gun right next to me, why I didn't put a bullet on his forehead and went out, why did I have to beat him to death, why I felt that incredible amount of hatred towards a single person.

I think that, in that moment, I let out every bit of frustration I feel about the country, being robbed by anyone and nobody does a damn thing, the fact that we cant find toilet paper, printing tonner, basic food like flour or having the lights cut out every 2-3 days, every piece of crap I had to hold until that moment, waiting to save money to be able to move away, all of that, unleashed on that dude...

I don't justify myself... I just think on what happened...

[–]moondogge 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Definitely see a psychologist. Im just saying, thats how Elliot Rodgers justified killing 8 people. Taking retribution for all the weight of the world, out on someone not responsible for all those burdens.

This was an evil person, not some innocent victim like your wife nearly was, but that doesn't make your justification for sadistically killing him sane. Like you said, i think a bullet in the head would have been human, considering what he tried to do.

But you didn't. Theres no excuse for such an escalation of force. You're not an evil person right? But you may be sick... i hope therapy helps you.

[–]macfamm 3 ポイント4 ポイント

This dude traumatized his girlfriend and nearly raped her at gunpoint. She probably wont ever be the same again, so I think he deserved a bit of pain.

[–]marcelinevqn 2 ポイント3 ポイント

This sounds like something that was very difficult for you. I have just about zero insight into the world in which you live. It may be easy to condone what you have done as evil, but it happened. I don't think you as a person are evil, but perhaps you've incurred greater harm on yourself by doing this act. You'll think of this essentially terrible act for the remainder of your life, and I think that may cost you more than $800. It might be prudent to find some help.

[–]taway30[S] -1 ポイント0 ポイント

I already am

[–]Graphitetshirt 1 ポイント2 ポイント

Holy shit. I dont know how to tell if this is real or not and I dont want to know.

[–]RoulantG 0 ポイント1 ポイント

You did what a lot of men would do if given the opportunity and resources. I applaud you for getting revenge on your girlfriend. I would have wanted to do the same thing.

However, I do not think taking his life is justified. All he did was rob her and I do understand that she was almost raped, and rape is a horrible thing. I think castrating and making sure he would never have the opportunity to do so would be better punishment that killing him. Some Sin City type stuff ya know?

I just hope you will be ready to answer and handle any repercussions of your actions. Venezuela is definitely not a place I want to visit if you can get off scott free of murder for $800

[–]Flight-Control 0 ポイント1 ポイント

i hope you are behind a few proxys, using tor and a spoofed pc/etc.. before you posted this..

[–]taway30[S] -1 ポイント0 ポイント

Why? This is the internet, and I have not posted any ID or any proof. It could be true, and I get to speak this, and share it to get some guidance, or opinions, or this could be fake, and I am just trolling everybody.

People who claim this to be fake, can just turn around, and nothing happens. People who believe in this, will probably give me some feedback and I appreciate it.

What do I have here to condemn me?

[–]Tunesz 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I'm sure this guy thought he was safe too.

[–]Leckerr 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Since you are in Venezuela I doubt the mods will report you. They might though, who knows. The reason he says that is because a year ago someone confessed murder on a meme on Reddit. Shortly after he was arrested. The mods apparently reported the post to the authorities. Im sure they will check to make sure you aren't in the USA

[–]TheRighteousTyrant 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Given that $800 bribe for a cover-up, and the fact that they wanted a bribe just to find the burglar initially, I don't think the Venezuelan police are going to go all NSA on things to find out who killed a street criminal.

[–]ssonicblue 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I'm lost too

[–]TokenTinkerer 0 ポイント1 ポイント

You are not the first man to commit a murder and you are not the last. Life and death, it all comes full circle. You did what you felt like you had to do regardless of detail or circumstance, and now you have to live with it. If your life matters and the quality of your fiancee's life matters, you'll do what's best for both of you to live full, successful and happy lives. The past is the past. Keep it buried or visit it frequently, but don't forget to keep moving forward.

[–]oldandgreat 1 ポイント2 ポイント

Everyone says how you can do that. There are places where people are able to do anything. I understand your reasoning. Do i like it? Hell no! Does it matter? No cause ive never experienced anythig similiar. You will carry it your whole life. Thats what you have to take. Live on, i hope you will come through! You have my respect, but not agreement.

[–]singingsox 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I'm not sure what to think, really. I must say though, that I have a good friend who's a Venezuelan immigrant, and she would tell me that it's very dangerous to be a woman there. Police don't care (robbery isn't a serious crime? wtf), and you can often bribe them to get what you want. Crimes happen in broad daylight. As an American growing up in the suburbs, I always found this to be the most absurd thing ever. I believed her, but also didn't at the same time, you know? Reading this story kind of reiterated what she was saying and also made me feel so incredibly lucky to have been born in the US.

I think what you did is inherently wrong, but I really don't blame you. Growing up in an environment like that must be incredibly stressful. I can't even begin to imagine what you are going through being in fear every single day. When animals are in fear, they lash out. I think a psychiatrist/psychologist would be good for you (provided they're not corrupt in Venezuela either), and trust me, there is NO shame in seeing one. Everyone needs a little bit of therapy! :)

[–]taway30[S] 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Lucky you, and lucky friend who was able to get out on time. Me and my fiancée are saving to go out of this whole mess next year

[–]joettshowbiz 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I'm in no place to tell you what you did was right or wrong, since I have never been in your position, which I pray I never have to be, but I don't think confessing to murder on the internet was a good idea. So hopefully this can't be traced back to you.

[–]vogueadishu 0 ポイント1 ポイント

My step mom is from Venezuela, and had told me how bad it is down there. So sorry you have to deal with these things on a daily basis. Best of luck to you.

[–]r0bb 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Nice story, I enjoyed it, but I don't believe this for even 1 second. Haha niggaplease :)

[–]Nickiskindacool 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I can't condone what you did, but I would have a hard time not doing the same thing if I was in your situation

[–]anon0108 0 ポイント1 ポイント

i hope you find peace.

its a hard thing you did. i don't know if i could do the same.

none of that matters.

regardless, i can't be terribly upset you killed the man who admitted to trying to steal from someone and implicated himself in her attempted rape. this guy dying doesn't sound like a terrible loss to humanity.

[–]CaptainBrocovery 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I understand you did what you did, but what's the point of torturing someone if they are going to die anyway? Torture is something the villain does to the protagonist because you can't just kill off a protagonist or the movie would end and people would be butthurt.

Idk man, I hope this doesn't haunt you for the rest of your life, but I do hope you learn from this, and you never have to do such a thing again. Good luck.

This is the most interesting/morbid submission I've ever read on this sub.

[–]jdpwnsyou 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Holy shit, dude. Leave the country, and never tell anyone this story wherever you go. I don't think you want to go to jail (especially Venezuelan jail) on murder charges. Seriously, though, you're going to have to take this one to the grave, telling the Internet may not have been a wise move.

[–]HatTruck 0 ポイント1 ポイント

If someone did that to my girlfriend, I'd do the same given the chance.

[–]irrelevant_inquirer 0 ポイント1 ポイント

You're correct that what you did wasn't "justice", but I think it is something much more deeply ingrained in us. Humans are pack animals, we don't survive unless we're part of a group. And in the earliest days of humanity, a threat against any single member of the group constituted a threat against all members. When this scumbag attacked your wife, he made himself a threat against your family, your group. And I believe it probably activated an instinct deep down in you that screamed at you that this threat absolutely, positively must be eliminated.

The euphoria you felt when you killed him was likely your fight-or-flight mechanism telling you that you did a "good job" by protecting your pack. In my opinion, what you did is not evil, it was serving your most basic human instincts to protect you and yours.

[–]Zosoer 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I'm not sure you should be telling people this
