If not calls to violence, there are many violent fantasies that I see posted, about what sort of violent end would GAW posters bring to pedos or the DS. It's a bit disturbing honestly, because I believe focusing on such things or directly imagining and wishing for such things poisons your heart, probably doesn't make God very happy, and it's often just exceedingly graphic in what these posters write and describe. Yet as you've said, I see people constantly also say "there's no calls to violence." Well, maybe not exactly directly, but there's plenty of violent fantasies running rampant in the comments on nearly every post, and in the heads of these people. Can't be good for one's Karma...
You are right. Besides, it isn't good to focus on revenge - it is mine to avenge says the Lord. I think there is a righteous anger, but it comes from having a heart for the victims and the helpless.
One has to be careful with righteous anger though, because even if you may start in the right, if you're not careful that righteous anger will end up making you in the wrong again just by your response. One can quickly use righteous anger as the justification for bad or negative behavior, and then the position of righteous anger is no longer righteous and just full of anger and violent fantasies. It's good to have a heart for child and all victims of violence, but answering such things with violent imagery, violent fantasies, or potential violent action will cause one's downfall from righteousness quickly.
I agree with 100% of what you've said.
There are so many posts where someone talks about how they want there to be televised executions of child rapists and DS and so forth (and they're coming up with some extremely graphic and disturbing forms of execution).
And so many times I get the impression that the thing that's most important to them isn't stopping children from being raped or crimes against our country. It's getting their rocks off from watching people suffer in some seriously messed up fashion.
And I believe with every fiber of my being that things like that damage one's soul.
Like you said, it can't be good for their Karma
I admit, I've been calling for public executions of some of these people. For specific reasons. I know they would go out and repeat their evil crimes if given a chance. For another, some of their victims, and those who they have threatened, will not rest easy while they live. That's a sad fact of life. Unfortunately, there are plenty of others who would follow in their footsteps of evil, and fear of punishment and death might dissuade some of them from making those choices. We have all the evidence we need to prove that when evil runs the government, evil people are encouraged to commit evil against humanity.
Most importantly, for some of them, the only chance of salvation of their souls is to face certain death.
