I get what you're saying. But would you still feel this way if this was a close relative? Like your mom your dad a brother or sister?

Yes. If it's not an acceptable punishment for me and my own violating this rule, it wouldn't be an acceptable punishment for others. I would grieve, probably for a long time, but I would grieve harder and longer over the actions my family had taken.

ah yes i get what you're saying also

its a bit macabre i know, with extreme measures taken for extreme problems, yet close relations make us excuse any number of heinous acts its only natural to make far reaching allowances for those bonds making it so sometimes our familial duty betrays our moral compass
