Tens of thousands of people chosen revenge on those who wronged them in the past and there’s no going back.

So the Bufford Pusser one…..Yea that one is all a lie….Police reopened that case last year and figured out Bufford killed his wife and shot himself…..But i mean the movie makes for a good story

The bombing of Japan was NOT revenge it was war tactics and saved the lives of a million Americans and tens of millions of Japanese.

The women in India who attacked their attacker. All I can say is the man got his just desserts.

I heard of a story of a rapist/murderer in a South American country. One of his victim’s nephew was in the same prison as him. The nephew killed him as revenge for his aunt’s death.

When Reinhart Heydrich was assassinated by OSS operatives in WW2, Hitler was enraged. They found an address where the operatives staged the assassination. Hitler ordered his troops to surround the town (Lidice in Czech) and shot all the males and even all the pets in the village. The women that were not considered "Aryan" were raped and killed, as were the children. The "sufficiently Aryan" women were given to unmarried Officers. The town was bulldozed to the ground, and a trainline was used to carry the rubble away. All maps of the area were altered to remove the name of the village. Completely deleted a village. The perpetrators were trapped in the basement of a Cathedral. When constant machine gunning through the air vents failed, the head of the priest was thrown in. Then the Nazis tried to flood the basement. Eventually, they threw in the head of one of the assassin's mother. The assassins had already taken their own lives. That was extreme revenge.
