Or to put it another way
His inabilty to react professionally and proportionately.
Don't get me wrong, I'm no Prescott hater. I'm just arguing online.

At the risk of perpetuating a pointless debate...
Would you describe a man who hits his wife as "passionate"?

Probably.
I'm as much of a namby pamby lefty pacifist as the next man but I do not hold that ever hitting anyone is neccesarily wrong, Leaving the massive red herring of spousal abuse to one side for a second, I've been hit by an egg at close range, it fucking hurt, it was assault and while I do not feel that 2 wrongs make a right, I don't think a punch is any worse, while I do not say it's the correct response, I think it is understandable and most of us have lost our temper and done or said things that we might have chosen not to when thinking rationally.
