The world of people just gets worse. I am safe enough where I live but just observing how things are in the world. There is a lot of evil people in the world in many forms. There is every reason to hide from the world we live in to avoid the violence and wars going on so the good people can live their own lives in peace. The world needs more people like Bruce Lee because the only weapons we need are the hands and feet for self defence. I am aware that people have invented weapons for violence and war for centuries but there are the 2 kinds of people in the world which are the good and the bad.

I get where you're coming from. I know statistically that many murders are spare of the moment, and unintentional, so that could be anyone. But there are psychopaths, sociopaths, Narcissists, not all are killers. Upbringing can play a very important part, hence to be able to prevent say victims of physical or mental abuse, from becoming violent themselves etc, would be useful. Some jobs require a person to be able to kill, like soldiers, police, Navy, RAF etc Then on top of that you have mental health problems, a lot of shooters in america have had mental health diagnosis', you also have religious fundamentalism, with in and out group mentality ie "we are gods chosen and you are the enemy." You have assisted suicide, some would see it as merciful, others murder. You also have some people in elite societies that would see poorer people as less than, ie"commoners" as seen in Darwins book The Descent of Man, this can breed eugenics, where some people think others have more right to live, because they think they are of better stock/genealogy, or more intelligent, there is a long history of illegal experimenting on humans. I could go on, and it could get really depressing. Where is the line between self defence and murder, and what constitutes murder, is it the weapon? Is a sane person with gun, on the same level as a sociopath with a knife in their possession, more or less likely to kill someone. What about a mother who's children are all murdered, and she shoots the killer? People can kill eachother with there bare hands, this happens in many domestic violence cases. For me, I feel, it isn't black and white, and perhaps the motive to kill, comes from different compulsions, situations, and mental states. I am more rural than where I was Shadow, but I wouldn't want to walk around the town in which I grew up in alone anymore, and that was just a small town with alot of heritage, now it's a complete sh'thole, it's sad to see, so do we just keep moving? I'm glad you're living in a safe place :)

When did you move to Ireland Shadow, I was just curious?

The last line of defence!
