True...but then, there are other ways of indicating your displeasure - I'm a bit uncomfortable with the 'might is right' position (especially given the way the US is currently operating).

Ah, but they were bullying. And seeing bullies get scared is satisfying.

It was more an appreciation of the hunting animal image.
