“Not to mention that all crimes are crimes of hate.”

Ask a lib if it’s possible to commit a violent crime out of love. I could imagine it, I guess. You know, “If I can’t have you no one can!” But they won’t be able to. They’ll proceed to tell you love is not the opposite of hate. Indifference is. So I guess when white heterosexual males rob eachother, they do so out of indifference.

I had a high school teacher once who told me indifference means you’d spit on someone soon as look at them. I beg to differ. There’s no reason indifference can’t be experienced within the bounds of acceptable social behavior (which people observe not out of love but out of habit). I figure indifference is pretty much what I feel for all of humanity, accepting people I know and either love or hate (and attractive women).

I always figured indifference carried its own definition, in as a prefix is a negative so it means no difference. Whatever you are indifferent toward makes no difference to you one way or the other. I don’t know how someone could have construed it to mean you would as soon spit on someone as look at them. That sounds really warped.
