What I will address;

Apparently there's some confusion with thinking that I'm using the word "understanding" synonymously with "compassion". Which just is not the case. I'm not generally all that compassionate, and that's in no way what I was even talking about

Bluntly as I can put it; I don't care that this guy is dead. Literally... at all. It gets a big "meh" - he invaded someone's home and he got stabbed. It seems pretty inevitable. I also don't really care that his family are upset about it. I don't know them... it's not exactly on my radar. When I say I like trying to "understand" these things it's not some bleeding heart acceptance thing... it's because I find attempting to understand human and social psychology interesting and rewarding, in the sense that it's fascinating.

I'm sure that'll just piss you off more because, for whatever reason, you think you need to "knock me down a peg" and tell me that "I'm not all that clever" like it's some sort of weird personal mission. Luckily, along with this fellow's death, I don't particularly care about your assessments of how smart I am or am not either .
