This is chased by the revelation that such ideas and attitudes are not just relegated t the poor and ignorant. I suppose murderous hate is not just a luxury of the poor and stupid.

Yeah, her answer was pretty sad. How can someone honestly believe things like that? I don't consider myself a humanitarian by any means, but in an ideal world I would not wish death upon anyone.
