More From Errol Morris

Robert nozick [a havard philosopher, famous for his book "anarchy, state and utopia"] defined revenge as delivering the message that you know what someone has done, and it doesn't involve hurting them or doing anything to them beyond that. it's just delivering the message that their crime has been noted not just by its victims, because the victim might be dead, but by another who has a different moral view and will challenge the perpetrator's view.

I think culture is where things change in us deeply. but right now, i think that people are very traumatised. they are very scared. having grown up in a house with a perpetrator who was violent every day and terrorising every day, i feel like that this country is suddenly very much like the house and the family i grew up in. every day we are glued to our phones, glued to our television; "what is this psychopath going to do next? how will he embarrass us? who will he bully or hurt or humiliate today? it's so easy to get locked into a syndrome where the perpetrator is ruling your life.
