Paris attacks (8 Viewers)

They prey on the vulnerable, some might have mental issues others might not. Problem is that the number of vulnerable Muslims will only rise. It's a fucked up cycle.

Otherwise we must take issue with the sanity of a large percentage of the world throughout human history. It's ridiculous to say that only the psychopathic commits such acts, when all evidence throughout human history suggests such barbaric acts are most often committed by ordinary people.

It's common mechanism among humans. The sheer thought that someone like Stalin was a sane man is horrifying.

A lot of psychiatrist and psychologist agrees with you. You don't have to be insane to commit a terrorist attack.

But FordEmo is apparently able to diagnose these attackers

Let's follow the logic - you thinks it's sane to do this, you presumably think you are sane, therefor you are capable of doing this - do you consider yourself capable of undertaking the mass murders we saw tonight? By your logic, you are.

100% agree with you. Any way you look at it, it's a rather terrifying expression of literal Islam.

I guess this depends on if you understand what a psychopath is and how conservative estimates view 1 in 100 as a psychopath.

An overwhelming majority of the population of this planet is capable of atrocities like seen tonight, given the right influences and circumstance... Look at Germany in WWII, look at Christians during the Crusades and again during the Inquisition, and again during the colonization of the New World.

You'd have to be very foolish to state unequivocally that you would not commit atrocities and crimes placed in the same situation.

You can be an insane collective. ISIS is an example of this.

That's bs an overwhelming majority of people in ISIS are not insane...thats just a really naive way of looking at it imo

 

[AndreaCristiano]

Christians killed people for centuries. The history of the Jews is filled with violence and genocides both for and against. Let's not be ridiculous here. Even Buddhism has had militant sects.

Any sect of any religion following scripture written in incredibly barbaric and violent epochs of human history, is going to be problematic.

So once again not all people kill I'm the name of their God and those who do almost always are preventing their faith so exactly lets not be ridiculous or biased. Your blanket statements do nothing to solve the issue just further your personal hatred

I'd say unequivocally that I am not capable of committing atrocities.

The fact men like Stalin and Hitler and Mao rose to such heights of power illustrates perfectly how rational, calculating, and intelligent they were...

People were tweeting that they are getting murdered one by one in the concert hall. :depressed

It's a combination of a psychopathic leadership and naive and disenfranchised following. Get rid of the psychopaths and reintegrate the disenfranchised and the situation is resolved.

Genius that teetered into insanity.

My personal hatred for what? I don't hate religion. I don't hate Christianity. I don't hate Islam.

Stop making absurd claims.

There is clear support to be found in scripture for violence and atrocity in almost all major religions. It's all up to the believer to decide whether or not they want to follow such scripture literally.

Dude. It's well-documented that you can get sane people to do horrible stuff.

Washington (CNN): President Barack Obama said that the U.S. strategy against ISIS has "contained them," but not yet succeeded in its effort to "decapitate" ISIS leadership.

This is from 6 hours ago. Dictionaries should carry this new meaning for "contain"

1 in 100?

I'd say unequivocally that I am not capable of committing atrocities.

But you really have no idea. And I can guarantee you, if asked before the rise of Nazism, many young Germans who later committed atrocities would have said the very same thing.
