re: #56 Thanos

Most people don’t get this: but here I will state it again - most terrorists are sociopaths, criminals, and social misfits to start with. They don’t fit into normal society, even in the hinterlands of Pakistan. The average suicide bomber there is either mentally ill, very old, or very young and naive. You aren’t attracted to terror in a big way like this guy appears to have been if you have a normal persona.

hrmm. I agree but with an exception. I would say that its possible to be indoctrinated, from a young age, into a way of thinking/acting/living that would push someone down a terrible path.

There are some people who just don’t care about other people and will go out of their way for violence, but there are also people who are groomed from a very young age and become twisted.
