What makes a psychopath a psychopath?

seriously. i have read all of the nonsense literary salad of analysis on why someone goes crazy. but i want to know your opinion.
the first 4 years of my life, i was Appalachian, then i was moved to Cincy. Cincy....where hopefully no one knows your name....where if you didn't belong to some cult and behave like a gang member, you were the outcast.

the family that raised me were drunks druggies perverts and murderers and so were all their friends and relatives. and all the kids i went to school with. and i was ostracized. i never did drugs, my drinking was laughable, and i smoked because being in a smoky room drove me nuts unless i was smoking. i didn't sleep around.

i was nice nice nice....and all people did was attack me and lie about me. Why do i have no wish to murder and destroy people?

Why was i never a pervert or weirdo? i don't even cut or steal....am i not human?



See...these are the things we need to understand to keep these school shootings from happening.... what is it that makes the difference?
