Where do you get this statistic from? Most psychopaths learn early on that violent/criminal encounters with others leads to hassles for them with the law. They tend to dislike such hassles so avoid such behavior. It’s the sadistic or otherwise personality-disordered psychopaths that are the biggest problem amongst the psychopathic population. Sadly there are enough of those around to really add to the prison population.

Most criminal violence is perpetrated by the personality-disordered, with or without psychopathy or mental illness.

I hope I never hear about you in the news. Otherwise, you’re right at home in this thread.

I’m not convinced.

Some diseases are inheritable. Some are not.

I would (although I am not an expert) place psychopathy on the “not” end of the spectrum.

A number of psychopaths and sociopaths have children - in another thread Dennis Rader was mentioned. Aside from the huge amount of trauma his son and daughter must be suffering, neither are a psychopath.

This is some kind of ironic performance art, right? You can’t possibly be sincere. I mean, you know who else wanted to eliminate whole segments of the population based on eugenics, don’t you?

I have this idea about a TV show or movie (or even novel) where Kellogg and Sylvester Graham (inventor of the graham cracker) are recruited by a time traveler from the future who wants their help to solve a future food crisis, where their innovation in creating healthy and delicious foods might be useful to turn the world’s meager resources into something that can be rationed and enjoyed by a struggling humanity. But there is an accident and the time traveler is killed, and the two men decide to use the time machine on their own mission to travel into different eras and purge the world of perversion and sin through snack food and breakfast cereals. Sort of like a “John and Sylvester’s Excellent Adventure” kind of story, except the protagonists are the villains.

You might want to have a chat with [this woman](https://www.wsj.com/health/wellness/i-always-knew-i-was-different-i-just-didnt-know-i-was-a-sociopath-68ebe08b), who claims to have overcome her own sociopathy and is an advocate for her fellow sociopaths.

The idea that there are millions of sociopaths with productive jobs and contented social relationships is admittedly just a bit hard to accept, unless they’ve learned to be really good actors who can readily simulate human emotions.

There’s not a super clear line of demarcation and neither is an official psychiatric diagnosis.

They’re both considered part of the spectrum of [antisocial personality disorder](https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/psychopath-sociopath-differences).

This happened not too far from where I live (a nearby town).

[https://www.king5.com/article/news/crime/charged-vehicular-homicide-renton-crash-killed-4-injured-3/281-6edf58e3-9e0c-4c42-b2c4-4d30850e4822](https://www.king5.com/article/news/crime/charged-vehicular-homicide-renton-crash-killed-4-injured-3/281-6edf58e3-9e0c-4c42-b2c4-4d30850e4822)

Kid is 18 years old, ran a red light going 112 MPH and killed 4 people (three of them preteens), and two other kids are in intensive care and may not live (they have “brain bleed”).

> Prosecutors said Jones was witnessed speeding and “weaving around other traffic” and said his driving was captured on video. Data from Jones’ vehicle reportedly showed he was traveling 112 mph when prosecutors said he ran a red light at the intersection, “at full throttle without braking.”
> 
> The documents said investigators found this was Jones’ third vehicle he has totaled in a crash involving high speeds in 11 months.

That’s right, guy is only 18 and this is the third totaled vehicle in less than a year. I don’t even know how the fuck this degenerate was even given access to a vehicle.

I’m sure there will be more details soon about this. But this is scary.
