Why did they beat on Jack?

[msdoran]

So I still can't figure out why Bai Ling's family kicked Jack's ass. I suppose the surface answer would be because he forced her to give him a tattoo of his destiny, something that was only reserved for her people, but there has to be another reason for a beating of that severity.

Any thoughts?

Good question, MS.

My only possible answer is exactly what you said. We don't really know much about it. Maybe it was also because he forced her into doing something she didn't want to do?

You stated the reason, there is no other reason.
