rheumatoid arthritis since I was nine years old and am now in my late sixties. Pretty much in pain most of my life, yet I haven’t gone out and killed anyone because of my pain. Have had surgery on a knee (not joint replacement, but a different procedure) that didn’t work. Didn’t go kill the surgeon or my doctor that suggested it. I didn’t blame them either because I knew it might or might not help. I do know back pain can be debilitating. Saw my father, uncle and a cousin suffer from it. Not an excuse to kill somebody.
