Yeah like I said one of my friends calmly say "oh yeah he did this and that to me so I just shot him and drove away" and at the same time this guys one of the most loyal and trusting people and a truly endearing human. Hence my misunderstanding of people.
Because not all killers are sociopaths, and not all sociopaths are killers. I was court order diagnosed as ASPD so i'm technically a sociopath, you don't see me shooting people. And it isn't that i have no empathy, it's that i compartmentalize empathy.
Ever wondered why serial killers try to justify their crimes? Because they do feel guilt, they just ignore it by telling themselves they're right. For if they let the full horror of what they had really become into their mind they'd kill themselves from the misery.
1 in every 100 is sociopathic, so everyone knows one....they're common as can be. Two on IIN at least.
The "iceman" is a great example, he was a sociopathic hitman, but he loved his wife and kids so much that he would be devestated to loose them. So he obviously feels empathy very strongly, but CHOOSES to ignore it when killing.
Like I said, anger and violence is a natural tendency. If he has spent his whole life in that neighborhood and that is the life that he is most experienced with, then it would be normal to him.
Do you think that Anger is genetic or a learned behaviour ?
