non sequitur

I didn't say anything about "innate sense of right and wrong". I implied, if tersely, that anyone who says they don't care about the emotions of their fellow beings and they don't _want_ to care is _dangerous_. I have seen people with those two traits do damage over and over again in my life and the lives of people I love.

There is only so far tolerance and understanding should go. When someone declares themselves your enemy and then slyly suggests "you can't censure me now (much less act against me) because I've told you the truth about myself, we're all just special case minorities, my unique difference is not qualitatively any better or worse than your unique difference"...is staggeringly disingenous at best.

For every "honorable sociopath" you trot out to "contradict" me...if they had a shred of honesty they would not pretend the group of sociopaths as a whole is a neutral, inoccuous demographic. Because they are a minority and there is no sign "Honorable sociopaths" will be anything else in the forseeable future.
