I suspect this would change a bit, if you separate serial killers from mass shooters.
Serial killers need to plan out what they are doing, to not get caught. They can often hide behind a mask of charisma.
Mass shooters fit this quite well. It’s also the exact behaviour I would expect from someone trapped in an untenable situation. The pressure builds until something happens. In a few of those people, it is via anger and rage against those they feel wronged them.
1 group is likely naturally broken, to some degree. The other is broken by modern society.
All cars have wheels. Not everything with wheels is a car.
If you averaged out every serial killer, you end up with someone that is remarkably just like me. I’ve learned this isn’t a bit of trivia to mention during job interviews.
The average person discovers he is average.
Serial killers skew white, male, under middle age, have a developmental trauma, tend to work alone, have impulse control issue, lack of empathy and manipulative behavior. As compared to the general populace.
Serial killers skew white
This is one of those times where racism strikes again. Serial killers also skew towards killing those like them, so guess what was ignored for a long time? Right, suspicious deaths of black individuals, meaning our ‘tracking’ of serial killers had some pretty large dearths.
That’s just because they picked it up from us Americans. Like the lions that learned gay sex.
Welp ☠️ Then I wish you the best. I guess?
The more famous serial killers i barely remember even a bit of were described as social animals, charismatic and highly adept at manipulation.
ted bundy was SUPER charismatic. He could charm the knickers off a nun. but often, a lot of mass shooters of late are loners and described pretty accurately by this meme, I think.
Mass shooters and serial killers are two separate things.
Yeah, but the problem is… You need to leave home to be a serial killer. Well, no wait. I mean to be a good one. I think if you kept inviting people to your house and killing them, it would be a bit of an easy trail to follow. So, being a successful serial killer is too much work.
I’ll do it tomorrow. Yeah, tomorrow.
Milwaukee police have entered the chat.
And Des Plaines police.
Come back “tomorrow”
I read the wiki article on dahmer before posting this, that was a mistake. CW on that article, nasty stuff , guy was really messed up.
I have killed 0 so far. One or two should be fine. How many to make you a serial killer? Bout 5 or 6 maybe?
That plus a brain defect that makes them think that ending a life is okay. All the other shuts-ins just play a lot of video games.
Oh are we supposed to be playing video games? I’ve been digging this pit in my basement…
Assuming it’s not for people or animals, enjoy your pit. Make sure you put supports in.
