It sounds like a reflection of current emotion/mood to me. Also it is something I'd think about if I was a mercenary aiming down at some innocents. 'theyre just going to suffer, nature is so cruel, *yawn BANG'.

It's fun to get this viewpoint on the same thread where the human animal seems convinced it is special. The greediest animal, we are special. We take joy in the misery of others, that's gotta be unique.
