Difference Between Psychopath & Sociopath

Dr. Drew explains the differences in regards to Casey Anthony.

 

Community Village‘s insight:

Do you know any people who fit into these categories?

A lot of men seem to have a predisposition to use violence to “solve” problems.

 

Many men lean toward sociopathic behavior. Isn’t it men who invented chemical weapons, nuclear bombs, napalm (sticky fire), machine guns.

What kind of person in their right mind would invent that stuff?

Smiley & West | Stanley Aronowitz, Norm Stamper, and Remembering Birmingham

Smiley-and-West-PRI-podcast

Smiley-and-West-PRI

Former Seattle police chief Norm Stamper explains why he now speaks out against drones, stop-and-frisk, and the war on drugs. West speaks with one of his mentors, CUNY Graduate Center professor Stanley Aronowitz. Birmingham terrorism victim Carolyn McKinstry recalls the tragic day when Christian extremists from the KKK killed four little girls in the 16th Street Baptist Church. And, Theodore Debro tells us how he witnessed Dr. Martin Luther King react to the bombing during his sermon in Atlanta.

I was amazed to hear Norm Stamper say that even though he knew the police could be overly aggressive, that after he joined the police force – he was sucked into the culture and became a gleeful abuser of the people that he was hired to serve.

“Yeah, I shot that kid” – An 8 Year Old ‘Trayvon Martin’ Was Just Shot

“CBS News 11 in Dallas, Texas is reporting that an 8 year old African American boy was shot in the face while playing a game of ‘tag.'”

 

Community Village‘s insight:

 

horrific

 

I was trying to find the name of the European-American who shot the African-American teen through the truck because his music was too loud; before I could find that I found that last month a 33-year-old Merritt Landry (European-American) shot a 14-year old unarmed Marshall Coulter (African-American) in the head. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/07/29/homeowner-charged-with-attempted-murder-in-new-orleans-after-shooting-teen-he-says-he-thought-was-breaking-into-his-home/

 

I follow @gundeaths on Twitter and most of the shootings don’t make the main stream news.
