Dr. Kermit Gosnell is estimated to have murdered 1800 babies outside the womb that were viable at 6 full months or older.

He is by far the biggest serial killer in US history.

No argument on this one.

There is a show on Netflix called “Mindhunters”. It is about the start of the FBI’s Behavioral Science Unit. The FBI guys go interview famous serial killers in jail to try to figure them out.

The killers are portrayed by actors that look very much like them. The dialouge during the questioning is taken from the interview tapes.

One of the first guys they interview is this huge guy. But he is very smart and calm during the interviews.

“So - you don’t think you are a freak?”

“Oh yes - but there are a lot of freaks out there.”

“Wait - so you think there are more killers out there? How many?”

“Well, based on the number of missing persons, I would estimate that at least 10 at any one time. Perhaps up to 20 or more.”

I recall one other statement he made. Something about how the planning and killing and all of that made his occupation very stressful.

“Wait - did you say ‘occupation’?”

“Well, what would you call it? It’s certainly much more than just a hobby.”

I noted awhile ago that serial killers don’t seem to be a big thing anymore. I’m sure they are out there, but they don’t seem to be as prevalent.

I wonder how much of deviant behavior is driven by the media? It seems like there were waves of serial killers. Waves of airline hijackings. Waves of bombings. And now waves of school or mass public shootings. Although those now seem to have tapered off with Covid-19 taking over the news. Oh - I guess the obvious cause is no schools and no mass gatherings!

I thought only angry racist white males are the serial killers?

Joel Rifkin killed 17 women, all prostitutes.

The first ones first name was Susie.

He was caught because he got sloppy. Rifkin was driving his latest victim to a disposal site when he was pulled over because his truck didn’t have plates.

I never saw the TV show, but I read the book by former FBI Agent John Douglas.

The huge guy you are talking about was Ed Kemper, the “Co-Ed Killer,” who is 6’9’’ and has
an IQ of 145.

By the way, Kemper was never caught, he turned himself in.

Ben Stein had a run in with his Kemper’s mother while he was a teacher at UC Santa Cruz, just a year
or two before he murdered her.

(He murdered is grandparents at 15, but was let out of a state psychiatric when he was 21 years old.

See, once again you have a black man excelling at something, and they were only giving white men credit. His achievements were invisible, because he’s black.

Blacks account for most homicides. I have a feeling that the only reason we might think there are more white serial killers, is because more black-on-black murders are never solved.

In the book The Sociopath Next Door, the author states that 1 out of 4 people in the United States are sociopaths - ranging from the petty bureaucrat at the DMV to the Ted Bundy types.

“Sociopath: a person with a personality disorder manifesting itself in extreme antisocial attitudes and behavior and a lack of conscience.”

Interesting. Does answer those questions during the day when you wonder “How can people just do stuff like that?”

Perfect description of a democrat.

"Kermit Gosnell is estimated to have murdered 1800 babies.... He is by far the biggest serial killer in US history."

Very first thing that came to my mind - and thinking how many other serial killers are using this same PC disguise to sate their satanic impulses.

Samuel Little, otherwise known as the “Choke and Stroke Killer”, is certainly one of the serial killers who has flown most under the radar over the years.

If Ann Rule didn't write a book about it, it didn't happen.

I believe she did! Or someone with that name.

And Newman took over Son of Sam’s postal route!
