I have had some personal enemies that just bothered me so much, that I actually sat down and prayed for them. Hard.
Over a couple of weeks my hatred thawed. I was able to reach out to them and make amends. We are not friends, but I sleep better at night.
Your mileage may vary. No judgement on my part....just my experience.

As far as that goes, I have been there. Bitterness and hate are VERY expensive emotions and the sooner released the better for oneself.
In this case, the emotions about the ex-Marine is disgust and revulsion — and that can only be fixed by removal of the object thereof.
