Yes. I hesitated in calling Booth a criminal because I feel that if he is so labeled, then alot of other people would also have to be labeled criminals, depending on whose perspective we are considering. Nevertheless, I do believe in absolute right and wrong, but we (or at least, I) am not talking about absolutes at the moment.

I don't see that we disagree on any major point. Booth may have been mentally ill, and that may have made him more susceptible to doing what he did. I was just trying to head off any possible consideration of him not being responsible for his actions.
