When is violence acceptable?

Asked by coffeenut (6171points) January 12th, 2009

In my apartment the people that live above me :
night one:he beats her(his wife)
night two: the wife beats him
-they scream,cry,yell,throw things, smash things,curse swear,get really drunk.
this goes from 10pm to 4:30am every night.
I have asked them to be quiet, I have called the super, I have called the police, nothing works, last night I went up to their apt to ask them to shut up so I can get some sleep,the guy was very drunk when he answered the door, after asking them to quiet down(extremly nicely) he tried to hit me with a stick(which hit my arm and now I have a sprained wrist) after that I kick the sh*& out of him, I kinda feel bad about it today.
was I in the right?
