men in particular say this all the time, too
“i would kill for my wife” would you do the dishes for your wife? the laundry?
it’s easy to talk about sacrifices you’re never going to have to do, especially when they make you sound so badass
but actually doing stuff to improve people’s lives around you is much harder than just talking

Hell, how many would choose not to kill for their wife? Say someone sexually assaults her and she doesn’t want her husband to kill the perpetrator. Because, I’ve been in a similar position (no opportunity to actually enact the violence though) and I suspect a lot of these men wouldn’t. They aren’t wanting to kill for their wives, they’re wanting to kill to maintain their sense of safety and self image as a protector.
In such a scenario, the will of the victim is paramount. As much as my rage that my wife had been harmed would motivate me to go full Punisher, her desire to not lose my to a prison cell or the grave would make her tell me to allow the justice system to work. I would follow her wishes but anything I could do that wouldn’t taint the evidence needed to convict I would do.

This sounds like someone who doesn’t have an actual kid who’s got friends he doesn’t want to lose by moving to a far away place that may still be at risk of a right wing decline by the time we get there too.
