Look man, clearly neither Bilbo or myself meant to make light of the issue as a whole, and that's a really really awful story, I'm sorry to hear you had to go through that. But quite frankly, to a small extent, the humour lies in the fact that you would fail to recognize what either of us meant initially, and were unable to draw a distinction between a knock at the authorities and making a joke out of bloody murder or in some way excusing it. That you would insinuate Bilbo was in fact downplaying the seriousness of the crime in the first place and start spewing venom, is mildly amusing to me, truth be told. Although I don't remember cracking a joke of my own, I thought his was well played all things considering. It never hurts to laugh you know.
