What if a random killing happened more and more frequently in our society?
Again, a random killing happened in a normal sunny day on March 28th in Taiwan. A 33-year-old guy killed an innocent 3-year-old little girl who was riding on the bike with her mom on their way to pick up other kids. With no reason, the killer didn't know the victim at all. Yes, it's a random killing again. This is the sixth random killing events happened in the last 7 years in Taiwan.
What happened to our society? What makes those irrational people do those cruel things without thinking about other people? How can we do to prevent us from suffering this kind of things again? There are too many reasons that leads to our society to educate those monsters. I believe something in our society are out of their function so that more and more horrible tragedies happened much more frequently in recent years.
But every time when this kind of things happened, it makes me panic, disappointed and didn't know what to do when seeing most of people start to be angry at the group who against death penalty. That's really frustrating, because the most important is not death penalty at all. In my opinion, we are supposed to focus more on what's the reason that leads to the results instead of finding someone to blame at. It can't solve the problem at all. I didn't mean the killer should be forgiven or something, they are responsible for their behavior. But the problem is if we killed the killer (or the gov't killed the killer), are we gonna be safe anymore? Are there no more random killer at all?
Let me tell a story. One day, I left a candy on the ground and I can't find it at all. A week later, there comes lots of ants that ruined my house. Someone told me to kill all the ants that appear in front of my eyes, and they believe that it's the only way to make my house clean and safe. I believe so and start to kill the ants. It works for a little bit. It's gonna be clean for a little bit after I killed the ants but in the end, I realized that I can never kill them all if the candy still left on the ground. So what I want to say is I didn't mind what kind of methods you would like to use to punish those killers, what I really care is what can we do to make our society with less killer.
In the end, R.I.P to the little girl. I feel the same sadness on the girl and her family, and I feel afraid as well. And I hope our society could be more peaceful with less hateness between us. But besides our emotion, what else can we do? That's all where we should make more effort at.

A 33-year-old man ('guy' is slang) killed an innocent 3-year-old girl who was riding on a bike with her mom on their way to pick up other kids. With no reason, as the killer didn't know the victim at all. Yes, it's a random killing again.

I don't know either.
I am mourning since I read the news this noon.
In our childhood, my mom told me it's dangerous on the road, so I should grab their hands tightly.
When we went to the brook in the valley, my dad told me that, stay near to the shore, don't go to the area that the water is darker than other.
Because there are dangerous, because there are dangerous. There are dangerous while you can see, you can keep away from it, you can protect yourself. They are dangerous yet not inevitable
However, it seems that we can't tell when is safe, whom can be trusted and where is the strong fortress.
I don't know. I have no idea. I don't know whether it is true or not that strict law deter crimes ; I don't know whether it is fair to execute the killer to meet the idea " a life for another life." I don't know, I just have no idea.
This society needs theriac, doubtlessly. And everyone of us are the different remedies of the theriac.
May all of you feel safe, protected and peaceful.
