I know of two level headed, law abiding boomers, with education and assets, and local community regard who have told me they would "kill" this guy in cold blood if they had a chance and could get away with it. I believe them. There is something this horrific act has triggered in the vestigial brain. I think this guy is dead man walking and knows it. We humans have an awe of animals and the natural order that we rarely admit. This act hit that nerve.
