Psychopathy: The Killing Of Serial Killers

Every day is filled with death. A human, a dog, a bird, a mouse, a bee. Which life is worth more? Do they even have any worth? It is estimated that every second two persons die somewhere in the world. Every minute someone is expected to die of cancer in the U.S alone. There are over seven billion humans alive today.

Of course if someone close to you died, it would be relevant to you, but it wouldn’t matter to the billions of other humans out there, or anything else. The stars and sun will still shine, and the Earth will still move. No matter what, animals or humans are dying. I know most people would argue that every life is meaningful, from the tiny bee to every single person on this planet. But that is much too unreasonable.

It’s not right for them to murder, but they aren’t necessarily evil when they can’t understand otherwise. So in reality, the idea of evil is not as hard cut as black and
