Man runs over five, killing one toddler
This is one of those cases that makes you shake your damn head and ask, "Why?" A man in Covington, GA deliberately ran over two women and their three small children, smiling the whole time. Since he's had depression for most of his life, so they'll probably work that angle. But I don't know. I personally don't care how mentally ill he was. I can't see this guy ever "coming to" and have remorse, and even if he did, how does that help these people and their shattered lives? I'd like to run him over.
If it is a mental health issue, then we are left to wonder once again what to do with such people. Where are the statistics of those that do such horrendous things to other people (or themselves)? How many are there? What's the rate of recividism? He probably got it into his head that they were responsible for whatever bad thing he identified, whether it be the bad circumstances of his life, or the war in Iraq. Who the hell knows? If that's the case, then he must have been quite satisfied that he was doing the world a favour by running them over. I wonder if he targeted those specific people, or if it could have been anyone in the wrong place at the wrong time.
