Do all guys secretly hope they run into somebody whom society would permit them to enact physical violence upon e.g. predators or should I see a professional?

Damn, honestly probably not normal (I’ve also felt this once or twice before) I think this probably just comes from thinking what we deem as a justifiable punishment for people who commit such atrocious things but at the same time does that really necessarily give us the right to want to harm another human being???? Perchance.

I avoid conflict, much easier and besides I don’t enjoy hurting people

I mean I do. Just waiting for a chance to catch a criminal in the act. Just have the urge to beat the shit out of someone (justifiably tho)

It’s probably a concerning thing, but yeah. I want to know what violence is like

If I could get away with it 100% I’d love to throw SA offenders into the sun as long as I knew they were 100% guilty

I do mma, no. Maybe when you’re a little kid you think violence looks awesome and heroic/fun, but once you actually experience it or see just how much harm it’s capable of most ppl want no part in it at all. You should always be ready to defend yourself should the worst happen though. I would probably get out more, get involved in combat sports so you know just how easy it is for you to get hurt/die, and then see a professional if you still feel that way. You prob just have too much energy

As someone who frequently reads the news, it sure feels hard not to think about it at least a little (here is one article i saw recently)

See I’m coming at it from a more essentialist perspective rather than a moralist one. The wanting, in my mind, is presupposed; it is in the nature of masculinity to ponder, if not outright desire, some sort of act of destruction. The desire I mentioned in OP would then be an effort to find belonging or purpose, a prosocial outlet for that kind of cruel mindset

And justice has always been a social concept for taking the burden of revenge off the shoulders of the civilized, that weight must still end up somewhere

And free time not being put to good use if that’s what you’re spending time thinking about ngl. I think liam neeson said he used to have similar troubling thoughts and got help for it, usually it’s a sign of other problems needing fixing. Go give yourself more purpose, do work you care about, spend time with family and friends, get into nature, etc.
