I never met Ilya nor the cops who ever arrested him
Here's another generalization and unwarranted, but I think, lesser leap for you - People who embrace murder as a solution don't commonly commit just one. Once a person accepts that competition can be eliminated permanently in that manner, do you imagine a "tool" that powerful will be used but once?
Why can't you admit it?
or do you really imagine that somehow one's geography produces hundreds of millions of people who are essentially all the same?
Since your command of English is quite good, I'm sure you realize that "prejudice" is derived from the same fundamentals a "pre judge", right? Maybe, just maybe, that's just a wee bit involved here, yeah?
Again I am sorry for your loss. I hope the two of you were not close.
