This was not a subdued, broken or dejected man. This was a man who looked at the world and realized that if he took up a weapon and went after the evil that he had found it would just ooze into the floor to reappear somewhere else and his story would be attributed to a whacko.
Instead he took his time and discovered that as he died in flames that they might spread to others in a like situation and start a grass roots fire that could possibly incinerate that evil he hated so badly that he would give his life so painfully.
Where he died should be erected a monument to his search for the truth and his sacrifice for that knowledge as an inspiration to the rest of those fathers who spent their Father's day with their children only because the Corporate Government allowed it this year.
