Hey. I was reading my vocabulary homework and I noticed a weird, but funny example for the word reprisal.
Me and my friend laugher our asses off.Quote:
In reprisal for being fired, a troubled man shot several people at the factory where he used to work.
Peace

Heheheee :)
More technically, reprisal is more of a response than "revenge." It is your answer to that which you were given.
strange example but it gets the point across
