5. Maybe the monsters see other humans as prey

The white nationalists killers/terrorists among us seem to have a mindset that everyone else is fair game. When our government, legal system, churches, are trying to teach us that everyone is equal, it seems like the monsters are more concerned that the pressure for equality means there will be fewer targets on which to satisfy their blood lust. I don't know if my view is right, but we are living in the same culture, and the humans advocating or acting on deadly force are willfully ignoring all legal and moral attempts to stop killing other people. And the manifestos they write indicate that they want to do kill. Do hunters think of the relationships between the animals they hunt? Do farmers think of the relationships between the animals they raise for slaughter? Even though unlikely friendships between species is 'cute' or lions have a political agenda or Bambi loves Faline, except for us crazy cat ladies, not a whole lot of people acknowledge that animals can bond. I don't think human killers who target humans don't care about the victims' loved ones, or anything about the life they are cutting short. They hunt, we die.

In the last year, friends of friends, who lived, have been part of the targeted crowd. How soon before my friends are part of the crowds, how soon before I go to a funeral because a human killer murders someone I know?
