Should one feel sorry for the criminologist chap stabbed to death by the moslem terrorist the other day?
Against: he was 25, not 18; he was sentimental about criminals and knowingly took the risk.
For his father? Perhaps he was at fault for cultivating the sentimentality in his son? Anyway, I don't feel sorry for a chap who politicised his son's death by loudly demanding it not be politicised.
Thanks for the share, Bruce. Your comment on my GT post made me reflect on the inherent danger of using loaded words like pity,(especially in regards to evil).

For his mother? Yes.
