So like, what IS someone that's done something horrible supposed to do?

He's actively trying to get better, admitting what he did was wrong, its fucking eating at him, what course of action are you suggesting here?

None. None whatsofuckingever.

What the fuck is your endgame here, you want him to fucking turn himself in or some shit? That's not going to happen, and it would most likely just make everything worse.

He never said hating himself made it okay that he did it, he just acknowledged what was probably why he did it.

He never claimed to get a pass, he spent the whole time saying how awful what he did was.

You're just pretending he claimed to get a pass to justify your fantastically unhelpful anger.

And I say that as one of the angriest people you'll ever meet.

Unless your plan is to cap him in the fucking head, turning away someone whose trying to get better is fucking stupid.

I love revenge, I absolutely adore revenge, I love everything about it.

But revenge should be saved for motherfuckers that are complacent in their pieceofshitery and or are continuing to be a piece of shit.

Not for people trying to turn their lives around.

If not, then there is no reason for anyone to ever try to get better.

Redemption as a person is a thing that can happen, but it definitely won't happen if you're spitting in the face of their attempt.

And ya wanna know what happens when someone unsuccessfully redeems themselves? They go back to doing the shitty things they were doing.
