Are we goading them into acting on behaviours that may have otherwise laid dormant had they never had access?
No.
It is their issue. I will not accommodate someone else's mental problems.
I will not.
Trying to understand an unbalanced individual is just falling into their reality.
I am quite callous in this.
And totally unapologetic.
The issue is that too often people pay the cost of others actions because they think they are protected by laws.
I do not change my behaviour for other's poor minds either but I am also willing to accept that they may snap and I may be required to act. I accept insecurity though and won't rely on an authority for protection.
I agree - people have been duped into thinking the law is their to protect them.
It can only ever be a 'mopping up operation', at best.
It's nice to be a grown up, isn't it? lol
