I can't... I don't think that it feels right to answer this with more death. I know that's what happens when we vote, we already contribute to it, but we can't just turn this into an unstoppable fucking cycle of murder, any more than it already is one. We can't do it.

[the anger has not gone away, but it's at a slightly lower simmer, at the moment.]

Whatever we do, I don't want it to be that. Their partner might still be forced to kill, and then we just have another body and one less option that weekend.
