This is really weird. Whenever I contemplate doing something "morally" or legally wrong (theft for example) my heart seizes up as long as I keep thinking on that track. As such, it has kept me from doing anything of that manner... does something like this happen to any of you?

What brought this up was I found trash on the shore of the lake I'm at. Which could kill the local loons. I actually felt like killing the person who left it there with their own refuse.

Wow...that's weird. I can contemplate doing any number of morally or legally wrong things with no difficulties. But you actually wanted to _kill_ someone just for leaving a bit of trash around?

They could have killed birds that are under state protection.

I doubt that your heart actually seizes up for any length of time, or you would have keeled over, but you are probably describing the chest-tightening of anxiety. It's probably that anti-violence chip in your head. Good luck with that.

murder isent wrong so long as you claim tempoary insanity in court. ;P

but yes, even petty theft, like taking an extra cookie in the lunch line or taking a pen from a basket full of em has been something ive never been able to do. Cause I feel once you start you keep getting worse and going after bigger things. And even possibly ruining somebody elses life. Which is actualy partly why im going into the medical feild. I hate seeing other people suffer, and if I can help them in their time of need it makes me feel better about myself and the world. It boggles my mind how people can do things in order to deliberatly hurt people. But then when they do something to hurt another I feel they remove all rights to the extent of the crime they have commited. IE you steal something you pay it back, you kill somebody in COLD BLOOD not in self defense or in the defense of another person what makes that person so special as to continue to live in a free society or even stay alive? They have taken the one thing from a person that can never be given back. They have taken something from all the people that person knows that CAN NEVER be given back or be paid off.

Killing birds is no reason to kill a person. The way the world works is this: survival of the fittest. If a bird can't defend itself against man, then it will not survive to reproduce, and it's not man's problem. Many people say that this doesn't apply to man, because man is really the only animal that kills for sport. I'm not advocating unnecessary violence, or anything like that. But I say: if animals can't properly defend itself against man, then man deserves to be on the top of the food chain.

Thats a little off-topic.. besides, hes pointing out that the birds are a protected species... something man is trying to protect, then some idiot throws garbage pn the beach, ruining the good mans work to help the birds survive. [/offtopic]

I don't really to do anything legally wrong, but thinking about it doesn't make me feel... guilty. Yeah, ive felt like killing people, but im only 15 (or about to turn 15)... that might have to do with some of it.

Yep, that's what I get... Goddamned government and their mind-controlling RFID tags...
