    A bird i used to live with from tyrone, she used to put toilet tissue in the keyhole of the bathroom door because she thought we were trying to look in at her. She wasnt even good looking.

    I don't think Hitler was a psychopath not at the start anyway, maybe power corrupts.

    The Norway guy that I can't for the life of me remember the name of or care enough to google.

    Im pretty sure his regime was responsible for more deaths than Hitlers and Stalins.

    Some estimates put that figure above 60 million.

    Which would be about a third of the Russian population. Stalin never killed anywhere near that number.

    John Wayne Gacy.
    Look up his wiki.
    Total psychopath. He liked to rape, torture, and murder boys and young men, and then buried them under his house.
    It's a really interesting case, and so sad because the police questioned him numerous times but always let him go and he went on to murder more people after being released.

    Jim Jones convinced 900 people to take a drink.

    That came up on reddit yesterday and somebody posted up the audio clip of his final speech. Was seriously chilling. You can hear the kids screaming in the background as they're being forced to drink it and every so often he stops and tells a person to drink their drink

    I remember watching a film about it a few years ago. I think it may have been the one you're talking about but I can't be too sure.
    Ah well, I'll look for it online anyway and it'll give me something to watch tonight!!

    Certainly a narcissistic latent sociopath. I doubt he has personally murdered anyone though, yet (although he did encourage some of us to commit suicide).

    Your on to something here. This needs to be looked into.

    When the Ottomans invaded Wallachia, Vlad knew he couldnt defeat them militarily so he had thousands of his own people impaled and placed on the route the Ottomans were taking.

    When they arrived and saw all the impaled bodies they turned around and went back. Pretty horrific way to protect your country.

    You could say the same to the whole Fianna Fail past Taoiseachs and ministers.

    Yes, he hasn't personally murdered anyone but his greed certainly makes him a sociopath.

    Plus the fact that he and the likes of Sean Fitzpatrick don't seem to give a sh1t about the mess they helped cause.
    From the smug, smirky heads on them, I'd say they are even getting off on it.

    As far as serial killers go, the video footage of the trial of BTK killer [Bind, Torture, Kill] Dennis Rader is a good example of a psychopath. The guy talks about his murders, and being a serial killer, as if it was his job. He murdered 10 people, including a whole family and ages ranging from 9 to 62. Some of the killings took hours. He talks about how he was surprised how difficult it was to strangle a person, and having to use a plastic bag to finish the job. No emotion whatsoever, just a very technical account of what he did.

    He was only apprehended in 2005, a result of him contacting the police with a floppy disk and it being traced back to him.

    The thing about Hitler is that he had the platform to develop his ideas and put them into practice. Whenever I read AH or other similar boards I'm glad that a lot of those people don't have a similar platform to realise their ideas.

    An interesting fact is that during his trial the court was full of "groupies", young women who were nearly fighting each other to get his attention.

    They didn't seem to realise that if he met them on a dark night they would be dead.
    Stupid bints. Women who love "bad boys" are headwrecks.

    Yeah, I have to concur with you there, I have often commented that I glad that the person who wrote certain posts will never have the opportunity to see their ideas become a reality. Especially posts about addicts or the homeless.

    IIRC he used to dress as a clown and entertain the local kids and parents, and when the cops were finally on to him they found a skull on the table beside his armchair (although I'm a bit hazy on that as well) - it amazes me that people can be like that.

    The Borgias.

    Corruption, adultery, simony, theft, rape, bribery, incest, and murder.

    And not forgetting Mr T Bundy.

    Yeah he was a children's entertainer in his spare time too.
    Total head case. His first murder was a young man he picked up and was letting him stay at his house for the night. It was totally innocent at first.
    The guy he let stay at his house got up the next morning and made breakfast to say thank you. He went to Gacys room to wake him up but he still had the kitchen knife in his hand. Gacy thought he was being attacked and jumped up and stabbed the guy to death.
    When he was caught and told his story, he said he orgasmed when he killed him and that was when he realised he enjoyed killing. And it all started from there.
    Crazy stuff.
