Watching the father of one of the victims of the hit and run van in Cardiff,cradle his bruised toddler on his lap, I felt murderous and was wondering how people managed to hold it together when someone hurts their child.
I feel as if I'd hunt them down.

Thanks Nanna so sorry you have to still keep seeing him, I can only imagine.

Lynette that's so sad - I hope to god I never see him again.

Well.... it depends on your stand point doesn't it..... When I saw the news report, I thought "dear god those poor families" AND "what an earth drove that man to do that". There is always a reason.... people aren't just 'evil' or born 'bad' etc etc. I'm not trying to excuse behavior just understand it. And in that context I don't think my overriding though would be murderous, but grief stricken that it had happened.
