Hey Eli I wasn't offended, just pointing out my stance - no need to apologise.

Of course there is a reason for anybody doing anything from going to the fridge for milk to tapping fingers on a shop counter - finding the reason is not the same as justifying it at all.  I'm not making that connection.  There's a reason why people commit offences isn't there? And I suppose one's desire is that those offences are not committed again.
