The Thrust of the Work Bob Does Everything Backwards is a literary-nonfiction story about a young mentally ill man who feels pressured into violence or peace. His love, an equally ill young woman influences his choices as their adventures are shown from the late 20th century to the present. Medical and spiritual influences affect these ill souls in cruel ways through inherent myths. There are logical reasons for ghastly faced wide eyed violent assailants and no one is offering preventable solutions for safety. We need to discuss why people become like this more than what to do when they arrive on the scene with weapons. We need a society that can build by inspiration and motivation and not by forceful actions and magic beliefs. Promoted myths do not motivate; they disappoint. All of us in the unsuspecting vulnerable public deserve respect and dignity. Let us make our future real and safe. Bob and Leslie learn in their way - we can too.
