yeah it's easy to forget that like 99% of the people they kill in this arc are either mafia or people who have likely done hired killings for the mafia

probably because they're so outmatched it comes off as civilian massacre

I mean, Kurapika, no matter how much into anti-heroism he's sliding, is still doing all this because they slaughtered a bunch of mostly (I presume) innocent people to tear their eyes out.

Not exactly the kind of thing that's easy to look past, in my book.

I can see where this is coming from, but the entire point of Kurapika wanting revenge was because they literally just went into his village and killed everyone for seemingly no reason, and then laughed about it later. It just doesn't feel right that these guys apparently just get to live their lives like normal.
It was for a job. And all the jobs mix together over time.

that's not how bullets work! just because it doesn't pierce something vital doesn't mean it doesn't cause potentially fatal damage!

no, dude, he could totally kill you with an empty weapon; it would just take a while and need to be done at close range is all
