How is it wrong to protect your children?

You can claim anything you want here, it doesn't make it any more pertinent than the OP does.
Maybe you should seek help from a professional....

Okay - well. No I have actually never seen such a scenario in real life. Only on film.
But I am familiar with the situation.
However - to my knowledge, animals don't have a habit of killing predators who attack their young, unless they have to. If they can chase them away, animals will usually settle with this. Animals don't kill for pleasure, only humans.

I would go out there and grab him as quickly as possible and definately make sure that he "trips over" and hurts himself whilst doing so! this is not about satisfying inner sadism, this is about protecting your children and loved ones.
I forgot to mention, have you ever seen what most animals do when their young are threatened?

The problem with vigilante justice is that every once in a while, people get wrongfully accused of something, and then what?
This story reminds me of the movie Mystic River.
I won't loose any sleep over this incident. I have very little sympathy for perverts. But I have no sympathy for the farther either. I do not condone violence for any reason, least of all out of vengeance.edit on 06/06/12 by Mads1987 because: (no reason given)edit on 06/06/12 by Mads1987 because: (no reason given)

Nah not at all satisfying your inner sadism.
(No just making sure that when the police come people saw that the pervert "tripped" over!")
How does hurting another protect your child and loved ones?
(If they are in the act of carrying out a crim on my child or loved one then YES i will hurt them if this will stop them)

You would be surprised to know that there are many animals who will try and kill predators to protect their young (especially primates)...
And... you will be surprised to know that animals also kill just for fun (ever seen a cat playing with a mouse?)
Have to rush off shortly folks as taking Rod Jr to football
Will catch up here when i can.
Kindest respects

No, it was a human thing. You should not insult the brutes by such a misuse of that word; they have not deserved it," and he went on talking like that. "It is like your paltry race—always lying, always claiming virtues which it hasn't got, always denying them to the higher animals, which alone possess them. No brute ever does a cruel thing—that is the monopoly of those with the Moral Sense. When a brute inflicts pain he does it innocently; it is not wrong; for him there is no such thing as wrong. And he does not inflict pain for the pleasure of inflicting it—only man does that. Inspired by that mongrel Moral Sense of his! A sense whose function is to distinguish between right and wrong, with liberty to choose which of them he will do. Now what advantage can he get out of that? He is always choosing, and in nine cases out of ten he prefers the wrong. There shouldn't be any wrong; and without the Moral Sense there couldn't be any. And yet he is such an unreasoning creature that he is not able to perceive that the Moral Sense degrades him to the bottom layer of animated beings and is a shameful possession.
I wonder if you would be so apathetic if you walked in on a group of pervs gang raping your sister or your mother or your grandmother.
