Paraphrasing Claude Rains, I'm sure that you are Shocked to hear someone suggest something that would be illegal.
Consider me properly Chastened.
Although I rarely have occasion to do anything of that sort in recent years (well, more rarely anyway), I would have to confess that my youthful years
were more replete with vindicative revengeful acts that some would consider improper. Luckily, I was fortunate to use prudence in performing those
acts and never ran directly afoul of any lawful redress. As Billy once said, "Close, but no Cigar". Like many (or so I believe) if ALL of my illegal
acts had been punished, I may have spent a long time (as opposed to none) behind bars.
Seriously, though, I sincerely believe that, as long as the other person is guilty of the initial offense, what happens to them in retribution is
justified (without limits). After all, they made that choice. That has been my "Golden Rule" and it's worked out pretty well all things considered.
As I close in on the Day of Judgement, I do spend more time in retrospection pondering how some of my previous life might be judged. There is the
possibility that my assessment of Right, Wrong and Justice MAY NOT be agreed with. Depending on who among the Religious and
Non-Religious turns out to be correct, I could be in for a LONG Uncomfortable time. Unfortunately, it's too late once you find that out.
Speaking of Justice and Retribution, years ago I purchased many books from Palladin Press, among others, regarding various Firearms and modifications,
cooking up chemicals and other inspirational tomes on "Getting Even", etc. I just checked and they're still in business and still offering various
manuals on those subjects. It's worth a look if you're interested.

BTW, I would NEVER harm a dog. As I've said again and again, I've met far more dogs in my life that I like than I have people. Dogs represent some
of God's best work. Cats, on the other hand, ..............? But I wouldn't even harm one of them. I once found a cat in the road that had been hit
and took it home long enough to nurse it back to health and give it away to a friend before it ate all of my speaker wires like the last one did.
Be Safe.

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who in the name of
charity and goodwill shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I
will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is
the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee."
