One in a million? Heh.

Many more hidden sociopaths walking the streets every day. Not every sociopath is emotionally unstable. Psychological tests are superficial for general population, I've passed with flying colors every time. Easy to fool person who can't wait to end shift and go home, thinking how most people are just right in the head and don't need to be thoroughly checked. If we are talking about highly intelligent sociopath, you need expert to deal with him/her. Regular psychologist/psychiatrists won't cut it, intelligent people can easily fool those less intelligent than them.

Especially with digital age, came also age of introverts and shut-ins who successfully fake social skills.

Also, not every sociopath has to be violent, to kill people. Most of them at some point do commit murder, but there could pass decades before that happens. Modern society allows different mechanisms to abuse people, aside from physical violence.

The majority are in prison or already on some kind of downward spiral but they are all emotionally unstable. The 1 in a million is the one who recognizes the need to put on a facade of normal behavior until achieving a position of power or even rarer actually maintain it for a long period time. When they no longer feel they need to maintain that facade of normal behavior that is when trouble begins. 

If we are talking about highly intelligent sociopath, you need expert to deal with him/her. Regular psychologist/psychiatrists won't cut it, intelligent people can easily fool those less intelligent than them.

Yes and that is why it's not diagnosed until after something violent/absurd happens. A sociopath would perceive help as a threat to their own ambitions or lifestyle. Again the reason I say one in a million is that these are the kind of people you would find in high positions of incredible status and wealth such as a CEO of a corporation. Anyone can exhibit greedy or selfish behavior but a normal person would feel empathy or remorse even if they were able to hide it well, a sociopath would not.

Heskey so worried about getting to the so-called root of the issue when it comes to terrorist attacks in the US, their ebil and backwards gun control system. Surely this worry transfers just as equally to muslim terrorist attacks in Europe. Oh wait, no, he routinely says that ignoring those and refusing to give the perpetrators "attention" is the best way to resolve that particular problem. The "root" of the problem is already dealt with, our superior and intelligent gun control laws keep weapons out of the hands of all terrorists, after all.

Seeing more and more rumours from White House officials that the ISIS connection may not be as far-fetched as previously thought. Will be a real WHAT A TWEEST moment if they reveal info confirming that.

Yeah Heskey the US should reverse one of their fundamental constitutional amendments because it makes some fart-sniffing limey useful idiot racist frenchman on the other side of the ocean feel better about having the propaganda shoved into his stupid malleable head validated. "Regulating" these tools, which in your worthless estimation are the root cause of the issue, WOULD be changing the mind of an entire nation, you oblivious cunt.

People have already told you the thousands of victims per year are largely ghetto friends, but this fact does not accord with your worldview so you will continue to ignore it. Strange how despite so many weapons in rural white places it's still stupid fucking nigs in densely populated urban areas killing each other senselessly by the hundreds, largely with illegally obtained weapons in the first place. You would think the poor redneck white trailer trash areas would be just as affected, given that they suffer from exactly the same social ills, but nope. It is a mystery. Maybe if you were able to perceive reality without the blinders of postmodernist retardedness your "solutions" wouldn't be obviously erroneous smug idiocy.

Anyways London is now the acid attack capital of the western world, so much so dumb idiot brits are now banning "acid". Good luck with that, I'm sure it will make the acid attacks plummet in number!

Yeah, last weekend we had a lone acid attacker that killed 58 people and injured hundreds. Clearly without guns, the situation is just as bad. Oh wait that wasn't us.

No you're just the ones with the occasional muslim terrorist attack that claim dozens of victims, totally different. What, are you gonna ban cars? Dangerous machines after all. Look at the damage they can do. Don't worry, I'm sure terrorists would never be able to get ahold of guns in glorious Britain. They're illegal after all.

I'd rather talk about root causes that can actually be regulated, using precedent from other countries that don't have the same issues. Rather than just smugly talk about factors that can't be helped 'meh, social issues', and accept that attacks like those will just happen forever. Weak-ass stance to take.

I'm sure you might find it helpful to look at this attack and say 'leftist' as if that's in any way true or helpful to anyone. Or look at a Jihadi attack and say 'muslim' again as if that suggests any solution to the ongoing crisis.

Either play the role of captain hindsight, leftist conspiracy nut, or make observations that don't provide any indication of ways to prevent future crisis. Like you always do. Change the mind of an entire nation, or regulate the tools they use to kill each other en mass. Good to hear you being the realist here, 'meh, social issue, nothing can be done'.

There are some things that cannot be prevented by regulation and some people you just cannot change. The UK has too long been a subject state or nanny state, big government simply does not work in the US.




Virtue signalling really does nothing here, a truck or a bomb is just as deadly as a gun as we've seen from the Nice, France truck attack. Noone in their right mind would concede their constitutional rights to a government that cannot protect them or has foreign interests in mind. See it just won't stop with "turn in your Guns" and we know this by watching the ridiculous clown government you have other there. If we followed the UK model of Gun Control the only real change we would see here is that people would be cutting their steak with a butter knife 10 years from now while all of the criminals/terrorists would still have guns.

So... the options are support foreign nationals who have nothing except nastiness in their heart for you, believe people can change and only for the better or implicate yourself in something by trying to do something about the pain and suffering simply by giving a damn.

The alternative is clear(ly ridiculous); treat everyone as an enemy and you will never not find them.
Maybe you are not bad, but you are a boring person. Well, that's the end of the matter.

I love how the message basically is "gosh I could turn into a mass murderer myself! Better turn these guns in because I just CAN'T TRUST MYSELF!"

... Because otherwise it makes no sense to turn in your gun or knife.

How many women in the UK have been scarred for life unable to live normal lives because of these attacks? It's at least in the hundreds if not a thousand.. To these women who have had their face permanently melted off these attacks are just as damaging as a mass shooting. They will likely never get married, have children or lead a normal life again.
