The best answer I can come up with is that to kill, steal, and destroy is a simpler response to stress or threats than to plan, sacrifice, achieve, compromise, or let it go.
Those who kill, steal, and destroy simply do so because that is as far as their coping skill development has allowed them to go. It's their inability to see the bigger picture and put the situation in a more realistic, social, and long-term perspective.

There is no set answer as to why people kill. Each person that has taken a life has his/her reasons. Most of the reasons are not acceptable by humanity as a whole. People kill each other for revenge, love, hate, money, lust, power, sexual gratification and the list goes on and on.
Why steal. Being poor is no excuse by the way. People again steal for many reason. revenge, love, hate, money, power,
Why destroy? When someone cheats on someone else they do not destroy the person. Yes they hurt them and the hurt is real but the person (even though they may think it at the time) are not destroyed. Also my belief is this when you find REAL love your heart no longer gets broken by unfaithfulness. The relationships that go through this are not in a real love relationship. They may think that they are but they are not. I know this by experience. Until you experience REAL love you will think that I am full of crap but once you do you will realize that I am right. When you meet the right person and you experience real love the thought of being unfaithful never comes to mind. All the rest is just trial periods to make us ready for the real thing.

Because they have most of the people who do these things have other issues, I'm considered poor by US standards I don't steal and I wouldn't accept it if my children did. As to why people Kill I think that people kill in the heat of the moment for the most part. When people plan a death it's because they hate someone so much they can't see a way out of the situation. Why people hurt each other I think for the most part it's not intentional. People don't always think about what they are doing before they do it. I don't think that they really mean to hurt others but they do it by not thinking about the consequences of their actions. Some people are just mean and evil. There's no rhythm or reason to it for someone who's a reasonable person. I'm not sure that you can ever explain evil just as it's hard to truly explain true goodness. Just accept the fact that evil and meanness exist and you will have gone a long way to knowing why things are done and not driving yourself crazy trying to figure them out.

- I think it's the nature of human being you know (wait, I am not saying killing, stealing, destroying are legal actions.)
- We are born, grow up, and die, our life is in the between of the process, we all change either positive to negative.
- As we grow, we look at our life at different perspectives, we change our perception (we do change, look at yourself and remember how different you are now compare to what you thought when you were a little boy.)
- From all those change comes our mistakes, believe me those are mistakes possibly happen to anybody as we grow. That's why I think there is no pure evil or pure good. You are a human being, good and evil are your nature.
- However, the difference is that each of us is not born at the same place or the same time, we are not grown up by the same person; all those things effect our perception, our decisions. example: How many people nowsaday say slave is ok? how many consider women are their possesion? if you say that you are speaking against your own kind; but it was ok long time ago, see, thing changes based on time and place.
- So to answer your question, why people kill, steal, and destroy, it is just the nature of human being, it is a mistake a person makes based on his own imperfection; a decision based on his perception.
- We all are born equal and therefore we are responsible for our own actions. Don't threaten me and we may be friends, if you benefit me and force me to work for you like an animal, one day i will bite your *ss; it's only fair. Those people who kill, steal, and destroy will soon have to pay for what they did.
killing, stealing, destroying just are mistakes we make as we grow; the fair thing is we have to be responsible for our mistakes; that's why each of us should try every way to make a right decision; if not, cheeze! we just f**ked ourselves.

Why they kill? they have no shame, they feel no hurt, something in their childhood caused them to be this way more than likely ex. abuse
Why steal? Some people can't get enough, don't want to spend money, for the thrill of it
Why destroy? Again childhood can play a big part, no shame, no guilt
