One could say that explaining the circumstances surrounding such behavior is justifying it.
But if you are going to operate with that definition then asking someone to explain it to you is just baiting someone for an argument.
My understanding of justification, however, is that something is excusable. That is vastly different than pointing out the underlying, contextual reasons for one's actions.
We are going to have to agree to disagree because I believe that attempting to understand one's behavior does not at all imply acceptance that the behavior is appropriate.
