How does a guy working for a fire department go out and snuff out a fucking mobster in front of 300 people and go home the next morning and feel good about himself? Well, you got to understand this, people, all you civilians out there. These people are evil garbage. The world is a better place without them.
You have no idea what these people have done and will continue to fucking do, not unless their lives are snatched from them. So, did I feel bad? No. Not one fucking bit. It was just a normal fucking kill. That's all. Because I really believe I did the world a favor. I don't know what else to fucking tell you. And if you can't live with that, grow the fuck up.
