14 year old psychopath kills parents

[abstract]

could be said that they can’t live any other way than by YCYOR. Since there is no emotional connection to anything or anyone, than all is expendable to them when arranging their life to satisfy desire.

Hmm, k, so according to that description, that sounds just like the kid, if i'm not mistaken.

How easily a 14 y.o boy can grab a gun from a safe and no one would notice.

The parents could have done something rather irresponsible, like writing down the safe combo and hiding it somewhere? What if the kid found out the safe combo like that?

And what kind of parents keep guns in the house?

Hmm...have we ever discussed guns on the forum before? Just curious.

With easily accessible bullets and how the kid knew how to load the gun and everything.

Children know all kinds of things that you don't THINK they know how to do, unless the gun was already loaded, in which case, dad might believe

in having a gun for self defense, etc. But once again, not enough details.

Maybe the kid knew for whom the father felt the need of self-defense. . .

Can you elaborate a little more jerry? Not sure I understand your statement. :)

Maybe the father felt he needed to be very careful about the kid. Parents have a way of knowing their children. The kid could have sensed this and killed before getting killed.

Of course this is purely speculation, I don't know anything about the case, but the scenario could exist IMO.

At the same time, if the father knew something was "up" with his own child, psychologically like that, wouldn't you make the gun the least accessible you could for the child?

Good point.

There are various levels of intelligence out there, as well as creative ability.

Wow, jerry, i'm so dense. I didn't realize you used to be "MC" and i was actually kind of wondering why i hadn't seen the name on the forum. Durrrhh!

I don't understand this, you mean the father having the gun in order to defend himself from the kid? Isn’t it also psychopathic?
And what do you mean by various levels of intelligence out there and creative ability, I can't find sense here.

Lots of people who own guns aren't psychopathic, granted many are, but we are simply discussing POSSIBLE answers as we have no clues to what objectively happened during

the described event. I'm not personally suggesting we NEED guns, either.

I'll let jerry answer this one, i'm not sure what he meant either.

I was specifically asking about the father having a gun to defend himself from the kid as Jerry speculate :)

Sorry, I’m at work, just now saw your post.

Please note that I was using this article as a spring board to provide a possible scenario to explain an act so difficult to emphasize with.

Actually he was the kid’s stepfather. But yes, if he knew the kid was a monster, I think it possible even a non psychopathic father may feel the need for a strong deterrent.

And what do you mean by various levels of intelligence out there and creative ability, I can't find sense here.

That was referring to abstract’s comment that if he had the gun because of fearing the kid, he would’ve made it even less accessible to him, which is assuming he had the creative intelligence to do so for that reason.

Anyway, didn’t he have it locked in a safe?

right, but that leaves the question of HOW was the gun able to be removed from a locked safe, the kid's not 4th density! Somehow the kid got the combo to the gun safe, unless it was just left open. It'd be pretty difficult to break it open, too. so once again, if we KNEW MORE we might actually know how it went down.

I am absolutely fascinated by crime, not that i really focus on it but when i hear about certain stories of crimes sometimes it just gets me thinking about for a while, as a mind-exercise or something.

Goodness I can’t see any intelligence nor creativity in the above.
I think there is no way to try to find sense and reason in these cases, aren’t they the result of chaotic minds?

The father having guns probably has nothing to do with any suspicions about the son. The father having the guns locked up probably has nothing to do with suspicions about the son - it's the law in many areas and a reasonable precaution when you have small children.

Though the story may sound like it is about a psychopathic child, and the behavior is truly horrible, we don't really have enough information to make that call. We don't know what was going on in that house. It seems pretty clear that the kid was totally dissociated from the event, but as all of you know from reading "Myth of Sanity," there can be lots of reasons for dissociation.

And that is not even to go in the direction of mind programming things, or OPs being programmed by television and video games, which is also a possibility!

Absolutely! It sure is interesting but we just don't know enough. :)
