In everyday society, it is the citizens responsibility to judge their ability to function in life with 'normal' people. For some, living a 'normal' life isn't possible. This seemed to be the case for writer Eddward Patel. It was his own decision to keep to himself and stay away from other citizens for their own safety. His anger wasn't something he could ever control correctly, even now, years after being diagnosed with an explosive anger disorder he didn't feel the need to remember the name of.
In retrospect, it wasn't his fault he got landed in jail. It was /his/. Instead, people shouldn't steal from others, especially those unable to exist within 'normal' citizens.
