Just imagine how empty and devoid of meaning is the life of someone who goes to a prison and blasts “Another One Bites the Dust” to celebrate the execution of someone they never met. Don't they have anyone they'd rather spend time with? Or does anyone else want to spend time with them?

This is probably the case for 80% of all jobs. People having fulfilling jobs is the exception, not the rule.

It's even sadder than that, he does this alone. He can't even find someone to counterprotest with him.

> The counterprotester, meanwhile, a lean retiree named Bill Campbell, tried to drown out the sound with a boom box blasting “Another One Bites the Dust.” [emphasis mine]

Not "One of the" or "Some" or "Among the counterprotesters", just the one lone counterprotester whose life is so devoid of meaning that he has chosen to fill it with a solitary celebration of death.

Is this article trying to make me feel bad for these people?

> Frank Athen Walls was an American serial killer and rapist who committed five murders between 1985 and 1987

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_A._Walls

> Willacy attempted to strangle Sather with a telephone cord, and when that didn't work, he doused her in gasoline and set her on fire, records show. An autopsy determined that Sather had died from smoke inhalation, indicating she was still alive when she was set on fire.

Can you have compassion, love even, for someone who has committed horrific acts? Honest question, what are your limits of compassion?

Can you have compassion, love even, for someone who has been the victim of horrific acts? Honest question, what are your limits of compassion?

Do you have compassion, love, or have you given a thought to the next victim of these criminals?

Trying to imagine the mind that comes up with “Is this graphic description of a person’s horrific acts meant to make me like them?” and drawing a blank lmao
