Why do People Kill?

So, why do people kill? Besides the rage, spur of the moment anger, jealousy and self defense. What sets them apart from the rest of us , who couldn’t hurt a fly. I’m talking about serial killers, thrill killers, perversion,money.Why do children kill their parents?

So how come some of us kill and some don’t? It is my opinion they lack an empathy chip. It certainly amazes me how someone can take someone else’s life. How can someone be so mean as to hear a person beg for their life, and kill them any way?

It’s a question I can’t answer. I don’t even think the people who commit these crimes can even answer these questions. I spend a lot of time watching true crime, reading books about and studying certain serial killers, forensics on the internet. In all my reading and watching, I have yet to figure out why people commit this crime.

All I can conclude is , they are missing the empathy that most of us have stopping us from killing. People lock them up but very few people try to find out why. There are study’s that they have found some different brain activity than most people have. Jeffrey Dahmer offered his brain to be studied to try to help stop monsters like him. He was murdered in prison, to this day his murder has gone unsolved.

Children who can kill their parents scare me. If a child can kill their own parents, what is going to stop a child from killing another child or anyone’s else. Have we desensitized ourselves from violence, by seeing so much of it in real life and fiction? I don’t know. I just know I am one that will keep looking for the answers.

I believe someday we will find the answer ,then maybe we can stop useless killings.
