Do you think it's normal to have a sadistic streak?
I'm a really nice guy, I don't wish harm upon any of my friends, family or animals. Heck I'll feel sad if I accidentally kill a wasp trying to get it out.
But say if someone kills a buncha people, they kill their family and kids, and say they'd do it again and that they enjoyed doing it.. let's just say I'd get really giddy at the thought of strapping them to an electric chair without the sponge. If someone is a murderer my empathy for them shuts off completely. And I get really annoyed when terrorists and killers aren't punished. Watching ISIS militants get blown up gets me giddy too.
Doesn't apply to felons like drug dealers etc, but reading and watching killers be in pain/suffering amuses me. That Green Mile scene didn't even disturb me. It isn't a new or recent thing either, I remember being like 8 or 9 and watching a documentary on Ted Bundy. The ending where he gets executed made me feel so happy lol
