  • An illness can be defined as something acquired whereas chemical imbalances, brains wired differently than “average” are inherent. Think of it as diabetes type 1 and 2. One you are born with and the other is one you develope.

    A pedophile who does not act on their impulses is the same as a psychopath masking their personality. They are inhibiting who they are and if not given the proper support and monitoring will cause damage to others.

    Historical psychopathy is a whole other issue which we would need to discuss lead poisoning.

    I’m not promoting retribution, I stated rehabilitation and professional help a couple times. I’m not arguing with you, I am trying to understand why you believe people should not be judged yet understand there are natural born killers in society.


  • The system is built by the society, the rules they enforce. The purpose of a prison system should be to separate the bad apples from the good, rehabilitate the ones we can and keep the lost causes away from vulnerable people. I’m sure you know that this hasn’t been enforced very well, especially when it comes to the most sensitive positions of power.

    I’m not saying we should try to prevent crimes that haven’t happened by locking people up right away, I’m saying we should take sociopathic tendencies a bit more seriously and address them directly with trained professionals rather than waiting for them to cause damage. That would require judging people’s character.

    If you’ve ever been the innocent victim of any crimes I think you would likely say you wish someone saw the signs earlier, and if the criminal doesn’t get more than a slap on the hand you would likely agree that our society is corrupt and broken. That it would seem the end goal is not to protect the herd, but rather provide a facade for evil to hide behind.
