Escalating

You can't expect it to NOT escalate piece. You're presupposing that NOTHING should ever translate to child murder... And IT DOES. You're finding yourself disappointed. And I am perfectly capable of understanding that you want your kids to be safe but at a certain point you have to start considering what kind of things translate to child murder ACTUALLY, regardless of our own biased presuppositions about when violence is or is not justified. Like, we don't need to agree that child murder is justified. I need to agree with EXACTLY ONE person. And you're not Hym.
A retard "No u! Something-Something non-sequitur."

Hym "Is literally your response to everything and now I either have to let you keep screeching down my appeal for a remedy to the stalking and harassment or I have to murder your kids and kill myself because I will never let you do this to control my behavior or get me to do something else. No u, Something-Something non-sequitur isn't going to work here. You are not entitled to this not escalating and it looks like you want it to do that."
