[Untouchable]

Like I already said, I would have gone to the police but I find you irrational because you have thoroughly convoluted what was originally stated. The words, "... deserve death because they 'pressed the wrong buttons' ..." are yours and no one elses. No poster but you has written that, although you have lustily chosen to interpret what they wrote to mean that -- all because someone close to you was hurt by a creep boyfriend. I stand by my analysis that you are behaving irrationally.

My response was to Lx in regards to this post:

you know what? You push the wrong person's buttons and oops, game over-no sympathy!

Oh so non-irrational one, how would you interpret such? I need your opinion so badly.....I thank you so much for interjecting yourself into a conversation I was having with someone else.....your opinion means so much to me! /sarcasm

I interpreted that to mean that at the police department, if you push the wrong person's buttons, you will get no help. Maybe my interpretation was wrong. I certainly didn't interpret it to mean that the poster was saying it's okay for one to murder someone who irks them. That was YOUR interpretation of what was written, and the way you rewrote the above was: " ... deserve death because they pressed the wrong buttons."

And you apparently wrote it because some crappy boyfriend beat up your sister because, in the boyfriend's eyes, she pushed all his wrong buttons. Irrational on your part.
