Simply living in a bad neighborhood doesn't make you a genocidal maniac.

What produces one or another interpretation is what really matters, and is the true cause. And that is not something that AAMFP addresses.

Also, why does Mandus have an alternate personality? That is just absurd.

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde - a great example about the dichotomy between the upstanding public figure and the depraved beast within.
