"sometimes you just can't tell..."

I was walking down the street last month, and I was seriously conmsidering letting myself be hit by the next truck that went by... I mean, they're so awesome! But then I thought of my friends and family... and wanted to get killed even more! Just Kidding! Anyway. I was reading this book by Robert Cormier, and then I realized something.... This old, old, old, old, old, old man has been writing about people with scitsophrenia and other mental illnesses for most of his career... There's just no escaping it. In we all fall down, there's this 'Avenger,' and he goes and kills the school bully with a revolver just because he steals kid's lunches... maybe Cormier is a scitso as well... sometimes you just can't tell....

I used to get bullied, and because Im really tall (well..6'2 or so) when I was in senior year Id push bullies around a little. Its so funny when a little pikie literally half your size runs up and says in his little squeaky 12yr old voice "ARE YA STARTIN???" and proceeds to smooth out your trousers in a vain attempt to knock you over.

ok then people

ok

Speak for yourself.

but school bullys are horrible who hates when people that are smaller then you start on you. theres this kid daryl at are skool and he has to start on people that are bigger then him. And we just say hes got little man syndrom. We made that up it means a person thats smaller then you starting on people that are bigger then them who hates this.

Would have given us another shop worker, cleaner of layabout though....Maybe even a brickie.

justice to what end. when it comes down to it you can think of it 2 ways.
1)Nobody deserves to die, no matter how horrific their crime, and we dont have the right to decide who lives and dies. we're not gods
2)Some people are just to dangerous to be allowed to live in our society and killing them prevents further death. Prevent killing through killing.

Either way the bully didnt deserve to die. He could have gone to be a chicken molester, or curing cancer, or just a normal joe living day by day making everyone around him happy.

So maybe he's not psycho at all and just wants to kill all the bad guys. I don't see anything wrong with that.
