Very accurate and true post. I have seen evil people in my life. Makes the hair stand on your neck.
One faily innocuous example:
As a young person, I remember a woman trying tto steal my suitcase while I was talking to my family, while we were standing in an airport. I saw this person out of the corner of my eye. She was bending over, reaching toward the handle. I looked her square in the eye and simply nodded my head ‘no.’ She pulled her arm away like a retreating snake.
I remember many details, but I remember her eyes most of all. There was something about them.
That’s just a fairly routine story.
As I've said, I don't doubt it. I think the biggest reason for skepticism is that I don't know any way to distinguish people who recognize actual evil in people and say so, from those who would claim to recognize evil in people but don't. If someone's claim that they can tell a person is evil is considered to be sufficient basis for action against the latter person, the amount of damage evil people could do by making false claims against good people who might otherwise expose them would likely outweigh the harm prevented by such action.
I wonder if the evil glare you got was a consequence of the woman's inability to reconcile her reality, in which she successfully liberates the suitcase from its greedy owner, with the situation before her, where she obviously did not.
As a former liberal, I think I have some insights to their thought processes; I can try to describe them, but such descriptions really don't convey how deep rooted Liberal Mind Fog can be. Certain logical thoughts simply cannot register. When Bill Clinton pushes his health-care proposals, even though I on some level recognize that certain aspects aren't quite consistent with what I learned in Econ 101, I figure that Clinton's probably a smarter guy than me, and so even if I couldn't figure out how his program would actually work, he and his staff wouldn't have had any problem. It doesn't dawn on me that perhaps Bill Clinton's program really wouldn't work as claimed, and worse, that Mr. Clinton may be entirely aware of that but want to push it anyway.
