The Bullet: MLS is the story of young lovers who become serial killers in the interest of ridding society of predators, one bad actor at a time.
Tom and Emily
were good kids from caring homes. They did well in school and graduated from
college. They are spiritually centered, loving, and kind people. But they do
have just one hang-up together; they can’t seem to live and let live. Not
without exception. There are exceptions.
They believe
that no one should have to worry about being molested, raped, murdered, or
sold. Independently of each other they discover that they are able to act in
such cases and, at some point, that they should. Executing predators is an act
of mercy they think; mercy for all the victims there would so certainly be
without some intervention. Compassion is their code.
Accordingly there
is no justice angle to what they do. No punishment, no vindication, no
vengeance, torture, or payback. Only mercy for the subject’s future victims and
for the subject himself. If his soul is so tormented or his mind so uninhibited
by moral sense, why not set them free? As humanely as possible. No gratuitous,
non-lethal suffering and no collateral casualties. No kids, spouses, coworkers,
not even bodyguards. Tom and Emily single offenders out, turn them off, and it
doesn’t bother them at all in light of the good it achieves.
In time they
learn they are not alone. There are others like them, and they are organized.
The Group votes life or death on candidates and distributes the names to the
assets that set them free. Might sometimes does
make right.
Like flipping a
capsized turtle onto his feet, they simply exercise their inner obligation to
choose the good and their capacity to keep choosing it, one bad actor after
another. There is such a thing as a person who just needs killing. These
unfortunates are slaves to their instinct to inflict irretrievable harms and
they should, by any standard, be stopped.
