By "bad behavior," I mean robbing and murdering and the like, so no need for scare-quotes. Framing the average criminal as the victim of their own circumstances -- which seems to really be in vogue -- is entirely unconvincing to me. > people STILL find reasons to burn to a crisp. You make it sound as if turning to crime is less the criminal's decision and moreso nature's. | ||||||||
