TLight, I feel a little awkward pointing this out, but the statement above really oversteps Jetto's boundaries.

Jetto might not see it as "secondary wounding" even if you do. Jetto might simply be pissed off about it, but not necessarily wounded... diagnosing a perfect stranger with your perception of injury is a bit over-reaching.

Similarly, it is not our place to tell Jetto what his needs are. Maybe you would like for him to seek justice. Maybe you are even personalizing this situation and are feeling Jetto's pain, so that you feel the need to seek justice. However, only Jetto knows his own needs. We can be supportive and we can suggest what we think he should do ("I think you should seek justice,") but to tell him "you need to seek justice" is just over the line.

I realize I might sound picky, but boundaries are a common issue for folks on this board, which is why I am bringing it up. More often than not it is something that does need to be addressed.
