[QUOTE="witzend, post: 128280, member: 99"] When I read what he was saying to you, I had thoughts more about his reading some of the works written by prisoners who were true Sociopaths but found life to be worthwhile in prison and/or on Death Row. Honestly, Dude sounds like he has no hope whatsoever of having any kind of life that is valuable to him. I don't see that scaring him is going to be the answer. He needs to know that people can be as awful as him (sorry, I don't know how else to put it) and find a way to make their lives meaningful. Dude [i]knows[/i] he can be a bad---, and he knows that he could rot in jail. It's time for him to think about the possibility that even the worst people can change their lives. Malcolm X comes to mind first, but I don't know that you would really want Dude to join the Nation of Islam... ;) I did some searches earlier, because I know that I have a couple of authors in mind, but without luck. I will look again. It seems like something he could relate to. [/QUOTE]
