How many times have we had people talking about the feelings behind riots in here while still calling them unjustified?

EDIT: I know it's not quite the same thing because of the direct connection to the victim's actions, but still/

still the same idea really. you can apply it to many a murder case too, plenty of high profile shooters would fit this mold. hell, we have entire industries and techniques used by both police and psychologists that revolve around the idea of explanation is not justification. your therapist is not there to help you justify your feelings, he's there to help you be able to explain them so you can understand why you feel what you feel. if somebody is under major stress, you totally can expect them to at one point just snap and take it out on somebody. you can explain that but you ain't gonna justify it, and that's how profiles on people work.
