Violent crimes are natural in a society
whose advances are limited by its technology.
The basic behavior of the modern human is
hardly different from that of its primitive
ancestors. The only noticeable changes
are trends.
Whether in a suit, or in a loincloth, people are
ignorant little thorns, cutting into each other.
They seem incapable of advancing beyond the
violent tendencies, which at one time were
necessary for survival.
Oddly enough.
That's pretty much true with some of our guys.
We're Arty, what do you want? XD
We're the guys with the cannons that go boom.
As for protecting people, well that's a bit
of a paradox-at least from what I know. I'm sure
that if you searched into the lives of some of
these victims, you would find out that they
themselves were the cause of their very deaths.
In those cases, the so-called "victim", at some
earlier time, played some part in the creation
of their "killer." I believe that the life ended
was ended for the fact that it was wasted on
something that would never evolve beyond the
childish cruelty so many never cast off.
