It is some kind of grim efficancy thing. I read a part of a book in a shop recently by some australian psycho criminal called Chopper who said he kneecapped some guy's mother so they could get him to go to hospital where they waited for him. Weirdly this guy is really popular because he only kills criminals. How that makes it so much better I'm not entirely sure but from what he writes he seems to think he is a moral kind of guy.

What I find weirder is that shops will stock his crap. He is apparently australias biggest writer, that includes him selling both David Malouf and that Carey guy.
[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Chopper Reid is seriously screwed up. From reading his work and seeing his interviews you can clearly see that he believes he's got good morals. In the really real world, he's nothing but a gvt health warning for the paranoid schizophrenic's association. And people buy his work. I say again; What's wrong with the world today?

As for the grim efficiency thing. I think you're spot on. What kind of statement does that make about the people who do this kind of thing?
