I Am Constantly Amazed
When I read reports about the early life of people like sniper Lee Malvo and the Chechen gangster, Barayev. Check this quote from Foxnews' web site:
"He was a tender boy, and was a good student," Zara Satsieva, a neighbor of Barayev's in Argun, told NTV Friday from the rundown halls of the apartment house. "I can't say anything bad about him."
And here's a quote from Malvo's real father, Leslie Malvo:
"He was a nice kid so I don't know how he got mixed up in this," Malvo told The Associated Press at a street corner near his home in Kingston's working-class Waltham Park neighborhood.

They warped from tender boy and nice kid into monsters. What the hell happened? Society? Parents? Genetics? God only knows.
