Here in Indianapolis, there was a double murder/suicide early this morning, which is a tragedy all in itself. And from the descriptions of friends, family, and people closely related to the victims, the perpetrator was having some serious mental and emotional problems. But he just had a history of mental and emotional problems, and today, he just happened to do the ultimate.
But what got me, is all the so-called psychologists brought in to the news program, to explain or find a reason why he did what he did. Like "He's Crazy!!!", just isn't a good enough reason. It always has to be something in his childhood, or something to do with medication, or whatever.
That just irks me. What has happened to this country? Do we ALWAYS have to be reassured at every fuckin' turn? The fact that there are evil and crazy fuckers in the world is just a fact! Not some "phenomenon" that needs to be defined or explained away. The fucked up thing is, a lot of us know the crazy fuckers in our neighborhoods. Or the crazy fuckers in our FAMILIES!! But it's a "hush-hush" topic, and we all try to justify why they're that way.
BUT MOST WERE FUCKED SINCE THEY WERE LIL RUGRATS!!! You know you have that one cousin, or uncle, or niece who was just seriously fuckin' odd!!! No reason, no explanation, just fuckin' nutso!! But you knew not to give them matches, not to have them too close to sharp objects, and don't leave them alone with the kids.
But no, we have to know what "drove" them to insanity. Now yes, I know that there are people who are pushed to the brink of sanity, but an overwhelming majority of us have a thing called A CONSCIENCE that keeps us from going too far with our frustrations and disappointments. I'm talking about the fuckin' whackos who have been whacky since birth.
Ted Bundy, Jeffery Dahmer, Richard Ramirez, The Son of Sam, Jack the Ripper, and any other seriously crazy fuck, were fucked up long before their "events" that defined them to the world. Killing little animals when they were little, bullying other kids, sick obsessions they all had for OH SO LONG, but there is always some group to explain their behavior away. Instead of calling them crazy, like they are.
I'm not really big on labels, but the "crazy" label needs to be REINSTATED, NOW!!! So we can actually keep more people from being hurt. And your overbearing need to believe you live in a safe, sane, and fair world is irrelevant to the reality that we live in a fucked up world. Maybe it will force more of us to keep our eyes open more often....
But hey, this is just my opinion........my word ain't law..........
