Probably could have been easily prevented, but now isn't really the time to go into it. The only people rational enough to understand already agree and everyone else will just sit here and blame an imaginary thing called evil.

Edited by MendicantBill : 3/11/2014 3:35:03 AMHave you ever heard of Anti-social personality disorder, also known as Psychopathy? People with that mental illness lack the ability to feel empathy or guilt, possess no conscience, and are completely incapable of caring about any other person. For them, killing is as easy as breathing. They are also completely immune to any form of rehabilitation, and often times it just makes them better at pretending to be normal. That sounds like evil to me OP.
-
No, that sounds like Anti-social personality disorder, probably caused by some traumatic incident as a child or possibly something genetic.
-
But it still perfectly meets the definition of pure evil, especially if you're born with it, which in most cases you are.

Please stop victim blaming. Only murders are to blame for murder.

ITT: Dustin argues the underlying cause of such incidents, while everyone else focuses on the symptoms - not the disease.

Your kind of thinking is very dangerous. One of the greatest enablers of evil is to deny it exists.

If we had a better system to raise our country's children. Seriously not going to get into it though.
-
Then why is crime prevalent among people who do come a fortunate background?
-
It generally isn't comparable to poor and middle class crime rates. Although mental illnesses are more likely among anyone who has rich parents who aren't always there for them. But income isn't the only factor, although it's definitely an important one though.
-
Are you seriously saying that rich kids who were not given attention are more capable to develop mental illness? How is that any different than saying homosexuality is something you develop? People are born as such; nothing more People commit crime because of entitlement, apathy, boredom, laziness, and bad moral judgement. Criminal behavior isn't some mental illness. It's a choice that can be stopped if you simply act responsible and show good judgement
-
[quote]act responsible and show good judgement[/quote]These are skills that need to be taught to people. Of the one definite variable we can measure, i.e. income, there is a strong correlation that shows that the poorer you are, the more likely you are to commit crime. And what does that mean? It means the amount of money you have growing up determines your tendency to commit crime.
-
The same can be said for high income families. Somebody who was spoiled and given everything will develop a mindset that society owes them the same thing also. Just look at the kid in Texas who killed 3 people and was sent to a $500,000 resort
-
I agree. Providing enough resources isn't the only part to raising a healthy child, you also have make sure they're taught the correct people skills, as well as many other things.

Dude, he shot someone for a cell phone. A CELL PHONE. He's fucked up beyond belief.
