But I'd move up the production line and see why there are so many evil-doers being produced in the first place, Bring it down to a personal level... Why do people do bad things to one another?? Why are there bullies, muggers, and rapists?? Should the victims be blamed for permitting themselves to become targets of these evil people? Or is that, quite simply, there are evil people who will, upon finding a submissive group of people, seek to dominate and subjugate said group of people?? I think we find that all the time. And sometimes these evil people are able to enlist the assistance of others in helping them to carry out their agenda of domination, in exchange for guarantees that their loyalty will be rewarded. We need to educate people like that properly in the first place to rid ourselves of conflict and wars. I would love to be rid of violent human conflict. I would also love to see it replaced with spirited, but amicable, competition with the goal of obtaining human progress, not merely financial profit. But we're a long way from achieving such a Utopia, and in the meantime.. we have to deal with the world as it is, not as we'd like it to be. Hawk
