Am I correct about this regarding Moody?

The only thing about Moody that could possibly just make him a bit likeable too some was his arrogant, disrespectful, cockiness? Because I tend to think back to times in my childhood that I wish I would have been an asshole like he was to some duschebags I crossed paths with. There was a school teacher I would have told off good once, but I was a shy kid and just refrained. But this teacher was hated by many students, parents and even some fellow teachers, as he was a an epic pos who on a number of occasions abused students, physically and verbally. Yep, I even heard a former teacher who knew him say years later, that he was a sadist.

So you want to be a douchebag? With that desire maybe you should check to see if you haven't already been successful.

I was saying I sort of envied his cocky character, despite disliking him. Not that I want to be a jerk, even though humanity does often seem to idolize bad, evil people in ways. Look at how horror, and serial killer movies or real life crime programs make huge profits. They want to keep the "Jack The Ripper" mystery, a mystery. Because the make royalties off of it to this day. I believe, people know who was behind the JTR killings.

The DNA evidence shows Aaron Kosminski to the the Ripper. The ultimate goal shouldn't be to be what others want you to but to be grateful for who you are. Those guys in childhood were a-holes, you weren't- you're better than them in that instance. That high school POV doesn't last long afterward, or shouldn't. If it's immortality you're after then you're chasing a mirage really. Names of some of the greatest of kings in the past have been forgotten, their formerly great empires now lying in dust. If money is the goal then there are less intrusive paths than personality downgrading. Those guys aren't cool, they're searching for answers.

And now I deviated us onto the topic of JTR, lol. But I don't believe that Kominski was JTR. I think the dna evidence is a lie. I think they're just trying to pin it on him because that's the only convincing way to put people at ease, by claiming there is dna evidence. What would a slow man as he was considered, who was a barber, know about human anatomy? The popular belief is that JTR was knowledgeable about human anatomy. Plus, going by all the reported solved crimes I've learned of, if there's lots of conflicting evidence, it usually points to more than one killer, or multiple killers. The JTR file, has lots of conflicting claims, evidence and suspects, which makes it conflicting.
