On that way I feel sorry for Tara as well. But I don't agree with the Dawn part. Dawn was indeed a bit annoying, but she had a lot of good moments as well. 🙂

I don't think any characters deserved Glory's angry. But Tara is one of my favourite characters and i absolutely hated it when Glory did that. Dawn may be a bit annoying, but i'm not sure she deserved that either.

I don't like the comment about Dawn at all, regardless of my personal feelings about someone I wouldn't wish illness/insanity etc upon anyone at all.

I agree that Tara didn't deserve what happened to her. However, I don't agree that Dawn did. Glory was evil, and no one deserves to have evil unleashed on them unless they're evil themselves.

I'm sure that person meant INSTEAD of Tara. Like a choice between the two. Also Glory would take Dawn, not inflict insanity upon her.

How does that make it better? That just means you're valuing one human life above another which is equally wrong.

How does that apply to this situation as neither Tara or Dawn are our actual loved ones?
And no. My husband is a firefighter and while I would be devastated to lose him, I do not value his life above any of those that he might save.

Obviously the OP expresses a liking of Tara and a disliking of Dawn. It isn't love, but the point remains the same. Like goes above dislike.
So, if you had to personally choose a life to value, it wouldn't be your husband? And I don't believe I was speaking to you.
I agree. (Gasp! I agree about something with you!) If it were a choice, you'd rather it be someone you preferred. You may be loathe to make such a choice, but I would value one life above another in that case, although it would arguably be morally wrong.

But natural. Anyone who thinks otherwise, is lying to themselves. I feel like I should be offended at your shock that you agree with me. But, I'm not. Lol.

I disagree with this entirely, and I'd really rather you didn't say because I have a different opinion I'm lying :/
If I had two friends, my best friend and someone I know vaguely, I don't think I could make the choice, it's not their fault they don't know you as well as the other, and if they've both led a good life then it's completely unfair to pick one over the other.

But yet you would. You'd have to. You would choose who you cared about most. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. So angry.

Ok, seriously, calm down. If we can't discuss this like adults in a civil manner, the thread will be closed.

So, getting this back on topic... The part that always got me about Tara getting mind-sucked by Glory was that she was always the most innocent of the Scoobies, always the outsider to whatever they were doing. She would help with spells now and then, but she mostly stayed out of the action, and look where it got her. 🙁 Poor Tara.
