If I was a criminal, I'd be... [ever since The Uncanny Valley aired I've been searching for a new MO that doesn't involve tea parties] creepy serial killer who believes killing is some sort of art form who incorporates Victorian, Regency, and poetic touches...

So, hello all! :3 I look forward to participating more in this community and ~~I had a discussion topic in my head... But forgot it while looking up the exact wording of my favourite quote. XD~~

I remember now!

Which one of the members of the BAU do you think would have the greatest likelihood of becoming a vigilante serial killer and taking justice into their own hands? Why?

I simply find it interesting how easy it is to pin each character with motive and "justification". For Hotch, it's hinted his father was abusive. Reid's father abandoned him and his mother. Morgan's stand in father figure raped him. Prentiss was/is manipulated by politics and constant pressure. JJ's sister committed suicide. Rossi's whole life has been that of professional success, but immense personal disaster and failure, a life of abandonment and doing anything to make it to the top to the point of ruthlessness. Garcia watches, listens, and looks at anything and everything to do with the vicious killings to find the details while everyone else uses those details to profile. Elle was shot in her home and later she went on to shoot a man, a single act of vigilantism. This makes me think of the quotes: "He who fights with monsters should be careful lest he thereby become a monster." and "If thou gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into thee."
