We disagree, I guess, but I don't want to argue about it any more.

No one is trying to excuse any of it, people are only being empathetic and stating that while it's terrible behavior, it's understandable given what they've been through. I don't excuse it, but I'm also not going to condemn these people who aren't in the best frame of mind. I don't think anyone should pass judgement on them, considering that none of us are in that horrific situation.
