My brother in law spent his entire adult life working with violent juvenile offenders, mostly gang members and all charged with serious felonies like violent robberies, rape and murder. He said he would look into their eyes and see nothing. Most would kill him just as easily as shake his hand. He didn’t believe in rehabilitation and said that most were already lost by the time they got to him.

When he retired he withdrew from human contact and spends most of his time gardening or fishing. He has zero faith in the humanity of others. I guess that’s what happens when you spend a career dealing with the worst society has to offer.

So sad, but so true of those who do have to deal with the worst humanity has to offer, especially the youngest of them.

If everyone had to face one of those reptiles down there wouldn’t be nearly as many liberals.

A friend who is a recently retired, life-long high school teacher in Newark, NJ has often said that they're beyond any hope, that they are for the most part total sociopaths.
