A few posts here saying the Butcher was a coward, how so?
To elaborate a bit more, I've read some posts commenting on the butcher's internal monologue being constantly belligerent and domineering but that he backed down whenever confronted. How so? He attacks his mistress when she berates him, he questions the guy in the bar who mocks him for not having enough money for his drink, and then when the barman points a shotgun in his face, he slowly walks out the door (doing this doesn't make you a coward, it makes you not retarded, unless you want a face full of shot cartridge) and proceeds to go back to his flat, get his own gun and return to confront the patrons. I wouldn't say he was a coward, hes a complete nut.
