The behavior is hard to understand when you are not a part of the hate culture. I saw it as a kid. The neighborhood bully was hell bent on hating. It was impossible to be kind and have him receive it with anything except scorn. He terrorized those of us in the neighborhood who just wanted to be kids and have a good time. Nothing mattered except his volatile expressions of aggression and violence.

I assume the bullies homelife is brutal, unhappy, non nurturing. How sad! I don't excuse it, can't forget it, will need to see change before I can forgive it.

I didn't want to live in my neighborhood because of the bully.

Bullies are ignorant. Where to go to escape it? No place can ever seem that ideal to this person, raised in the south with generations of hate being passed from parent to child and all of the support such ideas get in a similarly minded community.

So much god talk, so little godliness.

These people can't think.

Hate obviously kills braincells.
