Why I like animals best

I just heard on NPR radio that they arrested a man in Florida for throwing a
bottle of gas or something and starting a fire in a dry field. Someone like
this, well I can't imagine what should be done to him. The homes, the live,
the animals he has hurt. If one person comes on here and says that this is
an illness and we shouldn't judge, I will.....implode or something.

This sort of thing is why Matthew (and others) are having problems with loss
of property (hopefully still not loss of life) in Florida. They shouldn't
have wildfires in Florida, I don't care how dry the conditions are.

Just another idiot one notch down on the food chain. No regard for life or
property. I'm not gonna say this is an illness. I say serve him up to the
alligators in the Everglades. In pieces. Grrrrr.

Well, it probably IS an "illness" (what normal person does such things?)
but that doesn't mean he/she shouldn't be locked up! (The difference
is, the locking up should include psychiatric treatment, so the same
thing doesn't happen again when the sentence runs out and the culprit is
released back into society!)

I believe the proper way to deal with the idiot would be to dispense 200
grains or thereabouts of lead (perhaps jacketed hollow-point) at high
speed.

This person, if truly guilty, has committed at least many dozens of counts
of attempted murder. If anyone dies, murder. Sorry, no sympathy from me
for the person who would commit such an act.

As you probably have read in the past, setting fires is often the sign of a
sociopath. These people don't feel what we feel. They cannot be redeemed
by psychiatric treatment. They become skilled at acting "normal". When
they are released they go on to do it again. Firestarters aren't like kids
tossing a cherry bomb to watch it explode and then go "oops, we set a fire".

What to do? Honestly, I don't know. But conventional psychiatric treatment
doesn't seem to help these types. The usually escalate.

Florida does have fire problems from time to time from lightening strikes.

One of those would improve the person or persons who are starting the
fires.

I agree, although maybe the alligators have better taste than we think. No,
it isn't funny and I hope that justice, although I can't imagine what it
would be, will be done.

That is just so sick and wrong. I hope the suspect gets a harsh sentence..
Wish I could be on the jury for that one.
PUUUUUUUUUURS and prayers are sent for the victims.

The word for not caring about about anyone but themselves and lacking any
empathy for others is 'sociopathy'. Two year olds display sociopathy, they
are the centre of the universe and the universe is there to serve them. By
3, they are aware that others have different thoughts, feelings and needs.
By around 4, empathy has developed and kids don't want others to be sad or
hurt because they know what its ike to be sad or hurt themselvses. Teenagers
somewhat revert for a while, but sociopaths never get that basic idea. It
would never occur to a sociopath that the reason lighting fires is wrong is
that many people and animals suffer - the only reason they would udnerstand
is that if they are caught, they'll go to jail. Unfortunatley, thas part of
the thrill. The other people losing their homes, livlihoods and even their
lives is simply 'collateral damage'.

I lived iwth a sociopath for 10 years. Sociopaths are incapable of
acknowledging let alone respecting the needs and wants of other people.
