I wasn't labeling the nasty racist in the video as a sociopath. I know nothing about him except that he is obviously an alcoholic just for the fact that he would let himself get so drunk. I was just saying the prefrontal cortex is the part of the brain that has little activity in sociopaths. Ironically, I also know a few people who have schizophrenia. The hippocampus region appears to be the most affected part of the brain as far as schizophrenia is concerned, but I have also read the amygdala is also involved.

And of course you are right. It would probably only make matters worse if he was severely punished. It's just more fun to picture him having to suffer for his actions.
