^ Great. So you would be angry. Fine, that's normal. You are not the only one with siblings, or with parents who are substantially gifted in things that you will not be in. Jealousy is also normal. But would you really be angry enough to kill them all, just because you are jealous? That's not only way over the top, but would make anyone who feels that way a very sick person.

The Equalist have a goal to destroy all benders. Anyone in Bumi's family that is a bender is part of that, whether it be his parents, siblings, own kids (who may have gotten bending that skipped past him), or nieces and nephews (like Meelo, Ikki, and Jinora). Murder is bad, and genocide is worse. But murder of your own family on top of that? What is he, evil incarnate himself? Come on, that's absurd.

Never mind the concept of Aang and Katara raising a son that was a bad person, let alone so evil as to destroy all the worlds benders. According to your theory, they raised a son that would wipe out most of his own family simply because he was jealous? That's completely ridiculous, and unfounded. And anyone who would actually carry that out in real life is a terrible person.

So you have to admit one of two things:

1. Do you admit you are a terrible person, and that you believe all other people in this position would automatically be just as deranged?

2. Or do you admit you are wrong?
