Right or wrong?

[The Curmudgeon]

Now here's an ethical head-ache for you. On the one hand, outside of comic books, vigilantism is a bad road to go down, and this was obviously a pre-meditated, deliberate murder attempt, but on the other hand.. can you blame her?

What do you think here?

I'm not really able to remain cool-headed or objective when discussing grown men raping young girls. Is it ever acceptable to light someone on fire? Probably not. But I have no issue with it here.

Do they have juries in Spain? I'm not sure they could get a conviction in America. I believe that what she did was wrong because horrific vengeance is not going to unrape that girl and this will only make her life more of a circus, but I and most other people would have serious ethical issues with sending a woman to jail for harming her daughter's rapist. I think she deserves a pass, especially if when he asked about her daughter, he did it in a mocking manner.
