Slaughterhouse-five: Lazzaro's eyes twinkled (6)

Probably one of the most detestable characters of this book so far is Paul Lazzaro. Not only is he frighteningly bloodthirsty, but he tells the tale of how he mercilessly murdered a dog as if it was something to be proud of. Although "'Nobody ever got it from Lazzaro,[...]who didn't have it coming.'" (Vonnegut 50) I still believe the man had issues and was twice as violent as he was insane.
It might have been the war that made him that way, because so much blood and gore can really get to a man. Lazzaro has probably seen men die in seventy-six different ways and has witnessed limbs fall to the ground like over-sized snowflakes. There's no one close to me that has fought in a war but from what I've been told by books and Hollywood, It seems like something I would not like to have anything to do with, thankyouverymuch. I just cant really imagine anybody having such low morals as to resort to untamed, somewhat cannibalistic violence.
Billy and Lazzaro have something in common: they have been enslaved as weapons and detached from their senses.
