    Fair, but I’ll assert it’s invalid

    The end goal should always be a better society. Punishment isn’t an effective way to discourage behavior.

    Maybe one day, someone kills my sister. I’d happily kill them. I’d do it with no remorse, and I’d do it with or without understanding the situation.

    I should be stopped if I’m in that situation. I’ll be pissed, but everyone will be better off if I hold back. So, society should hold be back
