I don't think its as much the killing but the competition, and in all competition they are there to win. They don't seem to be as psyched up taking a life as I've seen others psyched up at taking a Super bowl ring.

I have known several people who have probably killed more people than I pass on the freeway everyday and seem just fine.

I'm also wondering what would happen to a mugger who selects a veteran, or in this coed army a rapist who selects a veteran.

I remember a local story about gang bangers who tried to mug an old lady. She just rolled up her sleeve and showed him her tattoo, the tattoo of the number the Nazis gave her, and referenced the worst they could do to the worst she's seen.
