This is justice I can actually applaud.

I'm sure he won't be throwing acid in any more faces after this. And hopefully it will give others pause as well. |
Yeah, maybe he'll think twice next time or maybe he'll just kill her instead. This isn't justice, it's tit-for-tat retribution. What's to say he doesn't decide that she's ruined his life in a few months time, tracks her down, and kills her?

What's next? You're driving, you're brakes fail and someone is paralyzed so you get same-same? No thanks. |
Not comparable. If you purposely stalked and deliberately set about paralysing a person out of spite because they would not reciprocate your affections, then yes, I'd find same-same very fitting. |
