Jeffrey Dahmer

Should we have compassion for psychopath killers like Ted Bundy, Charles Manson, Jeffrey Dahmer etc?

Your thoughts? I disagree with you Ands.

1. no they dont deserve any compassion they showed none to the people they murdered so why do they expect any back leave them to rot where they are
2. That's a pretty touchy question. The three of them did some pretty unthinkable things...I guess I'm not sure...That would be why you are asking the question...
3. Hell, no. Save your compassion for the innocent victims who had ZERO choice in their fates.
4. We should have compassion for all human beings... we dont really know exactly what causes a person to snap, it could be genes, trauma, upbringing etc. We were all born innnocent and not exhibiting compassion for those that err in their ways only serves to further harden us up inside. (compassion does no mean forgiveness, but rather understanding and the wish to relieve them from their suffering).
5. HELL NO!
6. I would never have compassion for ANYONE that killed people and then ate them. That is sick. Like I have said before, hell is too good for sicko's like that!!
7. No, they choose to do what they did.
8. I am inclined to say that all human beings deserve compassion. I know I would be disagreeing with myself if I knew that one of their victims were a loved one, but that is just the nature of the human mind.
9. that's what i call a "dumb_a.s.s" question....><
10. We should have compassion for all of humanity, it defies all understanding what is going on in the minds of the insane. However, we all have to be held responsible for our actions regardless of how heinous and whatever state of mind.
11. No we shouldn't HAVE to have compassion. Having compassion for anyone is a personal choice, and although it might hurt your reputation if you were to have a radical idea/feeling, there's nothing wrong with it. Having compassion for a murderer, fascist leader, etc... is fine. There could also be psychological reasons as to why one might adore these certain individuals but you still have a right to.
