What is wrong with some people here?

It seems like a lot of the people on this sub who find it hard to comprehend that someone could kill their abuser has likely never experienced abuse or doesn’t know someone who has, and I truly hope you never do.

Every instance of abuse kills a little part of you, stuffs it down, destroys any semblance of normalcy, of happiness, of humanity. It’s not a unique experience to wish your abuser feels those same feelings…. To wish they hurt the same way you hurt. Most people don’t act on that feeling but I’d argue most people would if they could and would be happy or relieved if their abuser was dead.

The amount of victim blaming and shaming in this sub really makes me question humanity. I’m glad you have the privilege to never experience those things but you should really reflect on how you perceive the experiences of other people who have.

Some SA statistics for all the non believers who think abuse is so far fetched - 1/6 women report having been SAd - 1/33 men report having been SAd - Evidence indicates 63,000 children are victims of SA per year - Of those children, 66% are between the ages of 12-17, 34% are under the age of 12 - 55% of SAs occur at or near home - 93% of juvenile victims know the perpetrator - 39% of adult SAs are perpetrated by an acquaintance and 33% by an intimate partner

Based on those stats, is it really that hard to fathom? Truly? And these are REPORTED cases. It’s estimated that 2/3 cases are not reported which means these statistics would be significantly higher.

It’s really not unlikely that they were abused and it’s really not hard to empathize why they’d want their abusers dead. Probably a hot take but I had to say it

Edit: To the non-believers, I’d highly recommend watching the documentary, Tell Me Who I am, to truly understand the impact abuse has on a child, and that yes, boys are also abused
