Gary Dahl‚ as California advertising man‚ was having drinks with his buddies one night in April 1975 when the conversation turned to pets.

Personally‚ I think Gary would rank as a “Torturing Murderer” because though psychotic‚ he did not typically prolong their torture. Yes‚ he watched them as they suffocated and defiled their bodies but he did not necessarily torture the victims. He was troubled by his sexual attraction to his mother and of his feelings of lust and humiliation.

The belief in Manifest Destiny‚ that the USA started the conflict‚ and that the US had no right to Texas are all reasons that the US was not justified in taking about half
