User blog comment:Volturifan54321/Are the Volturi realy evil?/@comment-7600752-20130913231020

They are evil in the way that they kill innocent human beings. Remember New Moon? Several of the humans that Heide brought back were small children. The Volturi could care less if they were drinking a mass murderer or an innocent infant. They just possess absolutely NO empathy at all for humans. So that kinda makes them evil in my eyes. BUT, are they doing anything that other vampires aren't doing. No, absolutely not. Aside from the Olympic & Denali Covens... all other vampires are pretty much like them. Even Carlisle's so called non-vegetarian friends. They all kill indescrimanately and could care less about the murder of innocent humans.

However, the Volturi do ONE thing. They don't allow other vampires to kill haphazardly and make a nucance of themselves. They keep the vampire world secret....and to a certain extent....they kind of make the world safer as much as it pains me to say it.

Personally, I don't think it's just the blood that a vampire savors after killing a a human...I think that they also actually savor the hunt...and the death of their victims. Meyer said that her version of vampires are killing-machine monsters. So, I've always tried to see them as that.
