Why would you care if they died? |
Because I'm not "scum...living with us in our society," that's why. I agree this guy did terrible things and I'm not even glad he exists, but I'm not going to argue that I should kill him, or that our society should kill him. Quite simply, I lack faith in the idea of revenge, at least intellectually. I realize that killing him will not set society right. It simply won't. Killing people ultimately doesn't solve problems. It hides them, and worse.
Of course, this is my position in argument. If I happened to actually get attacked by someone, I might sink to a lower level. Howvere, as the saying goes, I'll cross that bridge if I get to it.
