Actually you're the one who supplies the red herrings - you toss them into the pond and expect others to bite. Not bad at setting up straw men either. I might attack a man beating his wife - probably would - but if I killed him - I'm not so sanguine as you that I would get off scott free - I guess it's a question of degree - was his behaviour to his wife sufficiently bad for me to take the law into my own hands and kill him? But it's still a very red herring.

I'm not sure where the similarity to Kosevo comes in - we haven't killed the wife beater - in fact we may have stirred him up into beating all his wife's sisters and cousins and aunts - and he's still there and likely to stay.
