Do we suppose that an ordinary person - who was forced to take life against their will when attacking would go on television to boast about their kills?
In the nation state he lives, apparently his actions are legal, and the fact he stays that side of the line is an aspect of his personality, the aspect I am more interested in is that he wants to go on television and boast about the people he has killed; that in his store he has a gun every three feet. i really do not think anyone can credably make an argumeng "he doesnt seem boastful"... someone who does not want to celebrate the death they have caused doesnt volunteer to go on a TV show and desrcibe how the 5 victims were killed in lurid detail.
I was very deliberate in the language I used... i did not call him a murderer, I did call him a killer and I call him again a killer.
with regards to Inboils comment, that criminals are a disease and that society must treat them accordingly - I find pretty frightening that after WWII and the horrors we found humanity to be capable of, there are still people who can believe such things about fellow men and women. There are no actions which can be made that invalidate someone's humanity. When you start to believe that there are, its a pretty terrifying slippery slope.
