I completely do not understand how B/A shippers can say Spike is so horrible for trying to rape Buffy when they support B/A! When Angel didn't have a soul, he tried to KILL Buffy, NUMEROUS times, as well as tried to kill her freinds! You are really being hypocrites! If Angel is automatically good when he has a soul, and he shouldn't be blamed for any of the stuff he did when he was soul-less, then neither should Spike! At least Spike was capable of loving Buffy without a soul! There are many times when he didn't have a soul that he tried to help and comfort Buffy and save her life. But when Angel doesn't have a soul he completely forgets his love for Buffy and just tries to murder her! B/S is the true love!
