Re: I still don't know why they killed Jared
"This article, this crime, is the sort that just makes you shake your head. Who are these kids? Are they human? Do they share the same DNA as the rest of us?"
I think you are being a bit naive. As I tried to point out in my letter, murderous behaviour is very much written into human DNA. Have you ever noticed how many skeletons from the neolithic golden age of peaceful farmers living in harmony with nature have the unmistakeable signs of spear, club or arrow wounds? The world is more like "Lord of the Flies" than "Leave it to Beaver". Hence the need to develop civilization, which I still think would be a good thing for this country.
