Psychopath and sociopath are popular psychology terms to describe violent monsters born of our worst nightmares. Think Hannibal Lecter in Silence of the Lambs (1991), Norman Bates in Psycho (1960) and Annie Wilkes in Misery (1990). In making these characters famous, popular culture has also burned the words used to describe them into our collective consciousness.
Most of us, fortunately, will never meet a Hannibal Lecter, but psychopaths and sociopaths certainly do exist. And they hide among us. Sometimes as the most successful people in society because they’re often ruthless, callous and superficially charming, while having little or no regard for the feelings or needs of others.
These are known as “successful” psychopaths, as they have a tendency to perform premeditated crimes with calculated risk. Or they may manipulate someone else into breaking the law, while keeping themselves safely at a distance. They’re master manipulators of other peoples’ feelings, but are unable to experience emotions themselves.
Sound like someone you know? Well, heads up. You do know one; at least one. Prevalence rates come in somewhere between 0.2% and 3.3% of the population.

True. False.
Not either of those; I’m schizoid (a personality disorder not associated with criminality — asociable not antisocial).

It you score a nine, it's cats. . .

Every member of the Democrat party is a sociopath, since the day, in 1972, the party platform has called for legal abortion.
Every Catholic bishop in the country should have demanded, the following day, that every Catholic leave the party.
Instead, the bishops have tirelessly campaigned to keep Catholics voting Democrat.
The quiz is no longer socially acceptable. . . They are going to be sued by the LGBT community, no doubt. After all THEY want to be tested for psychopathy too.

I took the test and it said to wait by the door while they contact the authorities?
I smart psychopath would. . . and would know exactly how to masquerade the perfect angel when he is the perfect devil.
