Our current culture is creating psychotic psychopathic monsters.
That's the simple truth of it.
Maybe. Every generation has had its share of psychopaths.
If you look at the fifties you had Charles Starkweather and a number of other serial killers/mass murderers.
The Evelyn Hartley kidnapping was a national sensation and happened just blocks from my home. I was three years old at the time and didn't find out about it until I was almost ten. Most likely her kidnapper murdered her shortly after taking her. He very possibly could have driven past our basement home making his escape.
Edgar Smith was a cause celebre for many people including William F. Buckley Jr. who championed his innocence. Let out of prison, he promptly assaulted a young girl and admitted he was guilty all along about his first violent offense.
The sixties had Smith and Hickok who slaughtered the Clutter family, Richard Speck, Charles Manson, and the Whitman guy who gunned down all the people in UTexas.
What makes them go off, like the Las Vegas shooter Paddock, is still a mystery in many cases.
I hold no brief for the modern, rotten culture foisted on us by leftists and amoral greedheads.
But we've always had the psychopathic killers.
