I think I'm heading down the same road you are. For the longest time I was completely against the death penalty. I hate real life violence. The more and more I live, the more fed up I get with the general state of the human race. I'm just about ready to go all out; fuck lethal injection, draw and quarter the bastards. Eye for an eye.
Of course I'm being overly dramatic; I try to be understanding. It's really hard to be optimistic and a good natured person when everyone else seems to be vicious, backstabbing lying bastards deep down inside.
I try to find happiness by being kind and polite to everyone. Every day it gets harder and harder to do. It's making me become a hermit. I used to believe that everyone was truly a good person at heart. Now I've come to terms with the fact that some people really are just plain bastards with no redeeming qualities what-so-ever. Fuck 'em, let them fry.
