Do you think Plato killed puppies because he is a bad person, or is there an alternative deeper or psychological reason?
I think that Plato is a bad person because he has not has the right guidance to what is right and wrong. I think that if he had a family that could show him the ropes and guide him in the right direction that he would become a better person and not want to participate in these behaviors.
