    I don’t even kill spiders. It’s hard to look at that photo and understand, how this young adult even considered doing this. What broke him like that? Maybe, instead of killing him, we can somehow guarantee no new guys like him would happen. Not in a genetic crime bullshit fashion, but in providing psychological services, making regular checks, noticing them and reaching out before they act like that? He’s a fucking idiot, but also a guy that fell through many safety nets proving them ineffective.

      People who feel like they have nothing to live for often take their frustration out on others.

      It’s like they know their lives suck and likely won’t get better, so they focus on making other people’s lives worse because it’s literally all they feel they can do.

        I don’t think people realize how true this is. People like this are a symptom of society failing them, not them failing society.

        It is these people that need love and compassion the most. Preferably before they go crazy.

      How are those mutually exclusive? Do you think killing him will make him respawn somewhere?
