- shrikant 14y agoAlso, as long as we're being literal about everything, it would be impossible to kill a child (or anything else..) multiple times.
- Anderkent 14y agoThe 'multiple times' annotates occurrence of desire, not the subject of desire. He doesn't "want to kill him many times", but many times a day he "wants to kill him".
