   I agree. In many cases simply pouring gasoline on the fire instead of   
   putting it out. Kind of makes me think that people are really getting a   
   secret thrill out of crime. They enjoy watching it on TV, and it gives them   
   a reason for cathartic complaining, which they find therapeutic.   
      
   In a way, we are serving a social function as performers, inhabiting a caste   
   and wearing the steryotype which people find most entertaining.
