like people who kill in cold blood. So it's hard to imagine the thinking. Lanza is not "more disturbed" than the Tsarnaevs. This type of killer does not "see" their victims--victims are targets of hate, not people like them. Empathy does not exist in this type of killer. Eye contact or no, they will kill.
Mass murderers do not connect with ("see"
their victims in either case. They have become as cold as a soldier who knows he must kill the enemy (in self defense which is more rational, but still is cold killing). In the minds of mass murderers, their targets become their enemies, for their own sick reasons. They are in a war with Self, their dark side.
So if I read correctly it seems you are saying that the plane hijackers, the two bombers and Lanza
DO have much in common--which is what I am saying also. And I would add that the Columbine guys, the Norway killer, Aurora killer, Tucson, DC snipers, Va Tech all have much more in common than not. That is the scary part. We have a lot of time bombs ticking in disturbed young males around the world.
So maybe we agree.
