It's just so sad that able bodied men would steal from others rather than get a job, even if it's a laborer job. It's just so unnecessary especially to beat an old man. I think people like these men somehow have grown up to not have any conscience. They sound like they are mentally disturbed, but not mentally ill. 

I'm going to go off on a tangent about something that is related to the condition of this world related to the crime. I prefer to believe that God will rapture out the Christians (or believers of God). Some believe that there will be 7 years of tribulation (really hard times for people not of a Godly faith that are not taken up). Some believe that we are in the middle of tribulation. Jesus will return with the people raptured off this planet to a new Earth & new & good ways of living. This is what I am hoping for myself. I have turned over my life to God. At any rate, I'm going to be a doomsayer & say that I believe that this planet is on a path to self destruction.
