What i'm saying is that most people that torture animals don't become serial killers. There are several hundred convicted serial killers in the US but the amount of people who torture animals would be ten times that. The truth is (and many experts agree) that there is no one "blueprint" for creating a serial killer, many grew up in abusive homes, but quite a few did not. Ted Bundy grew up in a fairly stable and well off family, didn't torture animals, and is now the most infamous serial killer in modern history. Jeffrey Dahmer was only interested in animals that were already dead as a kid, even with people he would kill them while they were knocked out, because he didn't enjoy killing he just wanted the bodies. The link between animal cruelty and serial killing is trivial as it's the sign of a sadist not a serial killer. Most sadists don't become serial killers, serial killers are very rare and all so different from each other that it's near impossible to answer "why" and "how" they became that way, only they can say but they will seldom tell the truth. Millions of animal abusers in the world, far, far less serial killers.
It's the sign of a sadist, so it's more of a personality disorder. So it doesn't really affect them mentally at all, they think clearly but are not great human beings. And it's fixed too, an animal torturer is going to be sadistic life long.
The word sadism comes from this man, and those were his last words.
Marquis de Sade -
"kill me again, or take me as i am, for i shall never change"
True, but that's because a sadist doesn't know he's bad, nor do they really set out to be "evil". They just get a strange high and/or comfort from seeing pain, and have no real understanding of why.
No that is untrue and not all sadist like to kill animals. A lot of sadists are sadistic but not murderers or animal abusers. A sadist is someone sadistic and you can be sadistic without killing and mutilating things. Your actions would go with your disorder.
Is it normal to take pleasure in torturing weak animals?
