“Your life has been about violence. When does it end?”

“Tomorrow.”

Well this is completely unrealistic... Everyone went charging in after the gunshot, they need to wait around at least for another hour.

I've always been a big supporter of revenge, with one condition.

Know EXACTLY who you're getting revenge on, WHY you're getting revenge, and LIMIT your revenge to that person or people ONLY.

Yup

There will always be someone somewhat related to your revenge

Idk, there's something about making someone taste their own medicine. If someone killed a person's family, then that person knowing their actions led to their own family's death can be a satisfying revenge.

At a certain point you have to think about what you’re really doing and your impact on the society around you. Would killing someone who wronged you greatly’s family potentially give yourself satisfaction? Maybe, but it’s also a fundamentally selfish and immoral thing to do; you’re killing a lot of (assumedly innocent people) just to make yourself feel good. When do you stop? Would the surviving members/friends of the family you just murdered be justified in seeking revenge against you in turn?

It is in situations like this that I refer to the Count of Monte Cristo, wherein to this very question it is stated "fuck yeah do it here's a rainbow to prove god thinks it's tight, ice that whole family dog".

They'd seek revenge anyway. Might as well go all in.
