I forgot to say - the violence we commit on others affects us just as much as them, the perpetrator is as much a victim as the victim. I recently read the story of the most efficient sniper in the US military, a man who killed well over 200 people in various US wars around the world. Who shot and killed two armed would be carjackers in Texas in a way that would be fit for a dirty harry movie (shot them with his back turned to them). The cycle was complete when he was himself shot and killed while taking friends shooting. Could it ever have ended another way? But most of these cycles are much longer, spanning generations.
