<<But I've come to the point where I don't care what made him tick.......what prejudices he encountered in this country; what insults were leveled at him; what disappointments he had; who influenced him...........he had no right doing what he did.>> If this is your quote it surprises me. RW we all live right on the edge of either insanity or mindlessness or brutality. Psychosis and magical thinking is very common. It is the human condition. The kindest person in the world can become a monster overnight through psychosis. And kids can make really dumb decisions just becasue they can't think. And we love violence. Look at how we like ultimate fighting and football. We must organize society understanding the true human condition e.g. why the death penalty is nuts. HUmans have been very brutal and insensitive forever. Just look at the brutality of history. And god can we be stupid. We let segregation fester until the 1960's? How is that possible. Women couldn't vote until 1919. How is that possible? it is all interrelated to our being less intelligent and more crazy than we understand. ALL of us! Was our going into Viet nam or Iraq and killing hundreds of thousands of people so much different from what these kids did? Or our drone strikes now? We know we are killing innocent people doing that.
