Sasuke's parents were killed, his clan and friends were killed, the thoughts replayed in his head by itachi. Yeah im sure you would want to kill whoever killed your friends and family.
But did the ramen guy, konohamaru, Asuma's child etc people kill the Uchiha? Sasuke has a right to kill the elders, Danzo and the ROOT but to the innocents of Konoha he has no right to touch. Those common people were the ones who offered him food, shelter and friendship when he lost his family and being murdered is the return they deserve? the elders deserve a very painful death but what did the others do?
sasuke was in the same village as the people who ordered the elimanation of his entire clan, turned his brother into a slave. would you be mad or just be like i dont want to be a crybabe
Where did u read Itachi was turned to a slave? He chose his own path remember? He still supports and wants to protect konoha, see this page:

for just a minor example. Really Sasuke Fanboyism causes memory loss and blindness.
But i think most people dont know what the effects of the uchiha coup wld have been:
1. Uchiha were a lot in number,(they had a whole district to themselves) and their fighting talents were unparalleled.
2. Uchiha wld need to kill many of the shinobi forces of konoha to make the coup a sucess. And itachi alone can take on opponents equaling his total clan members. So imagine the body count .....
3. Many innocent civilian might have died due to cross fire or their livelihood destroyed.
4. To stop other clans from rising against them, uchiha wld have to take the clan leaders or their children hostage or kill them.
5. After the coup there wld be ppl who disagrees, who wld be need to be killed or imprisoned.
6. Hizune wld have to be killed.
7. THIS IS MOST DEADLY: Due to civil unrest and the weakened millitary forces, konoha wld be open for attack by other countries, who are always just waiting for a chance for a attack. This would mean destruction of konoha and annexation of land of fire. Imagine how many people wld be killed.
U r not thinking properly:
1. One sasuke can do this, imagine what other 45 sasukes wld do for revenge.
2. How is one going to tell apart who is guilty and who is not? Each uchiha has to be captured b4 they can be made to talk and all of them knows great genjutsu, so mind reading wld be not that effective.
3. Itachi at least knew who all were responsible and he specifically stated 'this clan has no future'; u know why? Cos i think the entire clan was into the plan.
4. Wont the remaining members plot revenge? or even run away to other countries and sell them the konoha secrets?
5. Also they hizune tried to take a bloodless path but it didnt work. (See:

6. Only the council (elders and danzo) suspected the Uchiha as Madara Uchiha the LEADER of the Uchiha clan attacked Hashirama, the first Hokage and its not a very light crime that can be easily forgotten. So the uchiha wre merginalised and secretly monitored (Its not spyng if everyone knows it). But good hearted Hizune made up for that by forming the Uchiha Police Force (No other clan had such power) and giving them full control over konoha law and order and still offered more (See:

and read background). But they refused the peace offers as they were after power and wld not stop before thay controlled the whole village.
The council made a inhuman choice but Itachi freely chose to take the path that wld save more lives and willingly made the sacrefice as no one forced him to; and wants Sasuke leave the path of vengence. Dont u think if sasuke really loved his brother he wld listen to and respect his bothers wishes? but no he is more in love with vengence itself. His goals may be understandable but not at all valid beyond the killing of elders and the ROOT.
Also Sasuke wasnt only one to suffer u know?
Gaara was hated and mistreated in the village, the only person who seemed to care for him tried to kill him and told him that even his mother hated him for no fault of his. Not to mention his father too tried to kill Gaara many times. But still u think Gaara suffered less? Sasuke at least knew love and family, but Gaara had nothing but hate directed at him. Sasuke was admired and praised by fellow villagers but still knows nothing but to hate. But Gaara knew nothing but hate from others but still changed and learned to love. Agreed Gaara was mad at first but he was a 'dont even think of messing with me or i kill u and have fun while i do it' type of person and yet still usually never attacked unless he himself was attacked. And yet later on learned to love the very village that nothing but hated him and was willing to protect it with his life.
Exactly. You're right Naruto does get "special treatment" mostly cause he's hard headed and goes off on his own but due to his motives they let him off with a lot.
Also (just throwing this bit out there) to put a real world spin on it, if you were a kid and went through what Sasuke went through you would become mentally unstable and more than likely institutionalized.
Yes but u will have to agree Naruto had to EARN the trust and love. Everyone in the Village treated Naruto like Scum, out of no reason. Can u imagine a child growing with only receiving hate from everyone he happens to meet, (even though he cant understand why)? Isnt He is expected to hate back in revenge too?
Your logic is still good, but itachi choose this life, and know that somthing like that can happen, but sasuke was a child at this time and never think about such missions and decisions.
he learns on a hard way, how "the real life" of a shinobi works.
As child he cant handle such a decision his brother made, and this drauma makes him to the psycho he is now.
And yet, his hate and his psychological thinking, drives him to revenge.
He dont choose it at this moment, when his clan was murderd, bit yet he wont go back on his way of darkness, and he will kill everyone, that lifes in this "peace" itachi created with his sacrifice.
I kinda understand him but that way he choose is definitly the false one.
Good way of thinking, rep+
Try to note that Itachi experienced a shinobi war when he was only 4 . . . . Can u imagine the effect of it on so small a child? Itachi too was also traumatised and at much more young a age.
