But to turn around and say "Well, Eva/Hideyoshi or Rosa or Rudolf/Kyrie might get pushed that far" is... how do I say this... presumptuous. How the hell does she know they'd kill for money? Especially if we believe this whole "empathy for everybody involved" rot. If you feel so strongly for everybody, why are you suspecting them?

Well, Natushi and Krauss are not included in my thinking. Red text and characterization and all that, like you say.
I'm not thinking that they kill for money though, I'm thinking that they will let the situation get out of hand and wind up accidently killing people. Anger, hatred, misconceptions, misunderstandings, etc. Especially since it was portrayed in EP7 that Eva killed Natsuhi 'accidently' she said. I'm thinking that that is the possibilty Yasu believed in. Or perhaps feared?

I can suspect those I feel for, because I believe that good people can do bad things. This seems to have been the message since the days of Higurashi. And we were looking at how Umineko may have had the same themes.

Hmmm... it's true about EP1 and 2. Maybe Yasu doesn't think this. However, EP3 shows Battler DOES think this with Eva shooting Battler. Even though it seems like she really didn't in the real world. Even if Battler can't remember it, he could look down to see no holes in his chest. 8)
Also... "rot?" Hyperbole, much? 8)
