“personality disorder”
So that is what they call the actions of people who act like that!!
“personality disorder”
Sociopath.
Fills our prisons.
Usually needs a bullet to the brain.
Borderline Personality Disorder pretty much gets down to having a condition that creates an inherent inability to obey orders or work with group dynamics.
It's more complex than that description but it explains why soldiers discovered to have the problem are simply discharged.
You might have been praying to God every evening in your foxhole to be let out of the Army early, but unless you exhibited this disorder (or got wounded, or suffered frostbite, etc.) they wouldn't let you out.
Yet, these guys got out with no problem ~ and usually without doing anything.
Frequently the problem manifests itself as self-destructive behavior ~ drinking, fighting, and so on.
The army considers it a pre-existing condition ~ not one they caused ~ and they don't provide these guys much post service support as a result.
This guy organized a group to rape and murder a 14 year old and kill her family. I suspect strongly he didn't suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder but rather from something far worse.
