Why the pain

Thank You

Thanks to all for the useful answers here. I think ya'll have given me what I need.

I knew I was going to take some heat for posting this here, but I was in the middle of writing the scene and I just couldn't force myself to see the world through the three thugs eyes. I needed something to humanize them for me so that they weren't cardboard. No, I'm not going to justify their actions or make them less villainous but now I think I can give them voice.

Thanks again to everyone who responded.

All the above situations described are mob mentality and cowardice. Ladyver is wrong, people are one step below animals. Humans are the only race on this planet that beats, rapes and kills for fun.

I always took you for a cat person, LC. You must have seen your cats capturing a mouse, and tossing it around until it is a limp, bloody, spittled mess of fur abandoned in a shoe? What's the purpose of that? Certainly not for food or sex.

Dolphin males are known to cooperate in groups to surround and gang rape a female who is left bruised and bloodied and well fucked. Not much different than GC's news story.

We're descended from animals. We have many intact internal body parts and structures in common with them, including parts of our brain. We share a large percentage of DNA with most of them. We share more than 99% with apes. We're only different when we choose to be different.

I agree. In a more pure form, not more "noble". We have filters we can choose to use. Animals don't. But our filters are capable of filtering out good behavior as well as bad behavior.

Yep.

I observe dogs and cats all the rime. They don't reason, they sense and recognize. what they recognize triggers action.
