By "vindication" do you mean "revenge"? Because vindication is absolutely not questionable. Revenge may be questionable, but I find that not teaching bad people a lesson isn't much better.

Vindictive, which is the word I used (not vindication) is defined as followws:

"having or showing a strong or unreasoning desire for revenge."

So yes I was after revenge.

I was replying to moosebear847, though I didn't notice you had said "vindictive", so I guess that's what they meant too, thanks!
