Overkill?

I can understand his pain...
I mean, if someone eats my yummy chocolate cake, I would be rather grumpy too.
But then again, maybe - just maybe - violence is going a bit to far?

Story:
"Father's Cake Rage," the headline screamed. Apparently, 37-year-old Obnoxious Bozo (not his real name) flew into a rage because --get this -- someone ate his chocolate cake!!

So what does Mr.O. Bozo do? Ordinary people like you and I would probably rant, sulk, moan and then pop in a piece of cheese or chew a leaf off the potted plant to get rid of the craving for a sweet.

Not our macho man though. He went into a rage and then hit his partner with a hammer and threatened his children with a snooker cue….because someone had eaten his slice of chocolate cake.

He does not stop there, oh no. Bursting with understandable anger, Mr. Macho Man then repeatedly stabbed a carving knife into the bedroom door of one of his children.

He threatened to kill his wife and children and then kill himself. All because a slice of chocolate cake had gone missing! I tell you what, that wife and children of his would never dare to even look at a chocolate cake for the rest of their lives.
