This is great Rebecca. No really, it is. Not only is this piece dead on, there was a spicy shock value after clicking the link. But... (now here it comes) ...is it really so simple? Couldn't we generate a list of instructions for any other type of crime as well? And for environmentalism...? And for animal rights...?

And then, aren't these things laws? Or are they moral guidelines?

I'm not trying to be complacent or negative or negate this piece of writing, I just think this is an over simplification of a much larger problem. I totally agree that this stuff should be step one - clearly education and accountability are paramount.

*thinking*

This brings a question to mind - do you believe that some people are intrinsically prone to destructive acts? And if so, what do we do with these humans?
