It's common to wonder what causes someone to be a sociopath as we watch in disbelief as the sociopath lies, manipulates, harms, and feels no empathy for anyone (Do Sociopaths Cry or Even Have Feelings?).
As you may know, sociopaths are anti-social; they exist outside the norms of society and care nothing for its rules or its people. Why is he like this? How did she get this way? Although the answers are incomplete, researchers are beginning to discover sociopath causes.
Causes of Sociopath, Both Nature and Nurture
Call it by any of its names - antisocial personality disorder, psychopathy, or sociopathy - the disorder affects all aspects of someone's life. A sociopath is antisocial, manipulative, deceitful, rule-breaking, and superficially charming so he can have his way. Where does something this severe come from?
Like all personality disorders, antisocial personality disorder is so intricately a part of every facet of a person's inner and outer worlds that it's logical that there are many things that cause someone to be a sociopath or a high-functioning sociopath. It makes sense that, like sociopathy itself, the causes come from both within a person and from their external world.
The sociopath causes are biological as well as environmental. Aspects of nature (the person's biology and genetic make-up) influence the development of sociopathy. Also, events in the nurturing of the person impact sociopathic behaviors. While it's still unknown exactly how much of the sociopath causes come from nature and how much come from nurture, researchers do know that both play an important role in the development of sociopathy (Sociopathic Children: How Do They Become That Way?).
The Biological Causes of Sociopathy
What is it in someone's nature that causes him to be a sociopath? Scientists have some theories. One is that the brain of a sociopath matures at a slower rate than the brain of a non-sociopath. Further, early brain damage could lead to the development of this disorder. Damage isn't the only thing that can cause the brain to develop abnormally. Researchers are also studying biological dysfunction, or faulty wiring, as a sociopath cause.
Sociopath tests that illustrate brain functioning, such as fMRIs and EEGs, show without a doubt that there are brain-based causes of sociopathy. Biology, nature, unquestionably contributes to antisocial personality disorder. This is only part of the picture, however. The genetics or the organic brain itself must exist, but something has to trigger them.
The Environmental Causes of Sociopathy
With the right biological conditions in place, a person's background can further add to the development of sociopathy. Early life experiences or trauma, such as extreme poverty, abuse, rejection, and other adverse conditions can, if the biological nature allows, be part of the causes of sociopathy (Sociopathic Parents and Their Effects on Children).
Interestingly, when exploring what causes someone to be a sociopath, some researchers have noticed that sociopaths coming from unstable backgrounds commit more violent crimes than sociopaths from stable backgrounds (Hare, 1999). Sociopaths do indeed come from all socioeconomic backgrounds. There is some evidence that many factors influence the severity of sociopathy.
Are Sociopath Causes Seen Later in Life?
A child is born with the capacity to become a sociopath. Environmental causes of sociopathy trigger the biological disposition. In addition, there are behaviors that exist in childhood that are clues that he will be diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder as an adult (My Child Is A Sociopath! Is There Anything I Can Do?). This means that someone can't just suddenly become a sociopath later in life.
There is one rare exception. Traumatic brain injury specifically to the paralimbic system can (but doesn't always) cause someone to develop a sociopathic personality.
It appears that someone is born a sociopath. It takes triggers from the environment in childhood for the full-blown symptoms of a sociopath to develop, but the brain is primed for it from birth. It's the dance between nature and nurture that are the sociopath causes underlying the making of a sociopath.

I did not mean it actually says government can regulate. My point is that it was generally accepted (Blackstone, for example) that these rights were not absolute and did not include certain acts. It is the job of the Supreme Court to apply these principles and cases involving speech, press, religion, firearms, etc. include historical arguments supporting their views. It is based as much as possible on the original intent and meaning of these provisions although that is difficult to determine and varies widely among the members of Congress voting to propose that amendment.
Do you think these rights are absolute and government cannot prohibit threats, for example, or regulate the age for purchasing firearms or previous criminal conduct? If you do not think these rights are absolute and accept these examples of regulation, where does government get that power?

Then the point you were hoping to make, just because inconsequential.
I accept your concession.
Not really, the point is that the rights in the Bill of Rights can be regulated and are not absolute.
You failed to answer the question about whether there can be any regulations on these rights. Unless you think they are absolute we have the same position--the Constitution does not specifically say they can be regulated but government can choose to do so.

did you miss where I said if it was used more? do you think that the government would prosecute a case if he knows he's not going to win?
they have these things called 'state constitutions', maybe you've heard of them? How about the 9th Amendment in the Bill of Rights? How about the 10th Amendment? you're familiar with how these work?
That was an acceptable risk to the founders to ensure that the government couldn't use the law against the people. The framers believed that it was better that 10 guilty men go free than to have one innocent imprisoned.

there were many commentaries that specifically noted that the new federal government would have NO POWER to regulate the arms of the people, so where did the Supreme Court suddenly come about having that power?
And when they get it so obviously wrong, we have nullification to void their tyranny
government gets that power because an apathetic majority believes they aren't smart enough to judge the law, that only the government can do that.
Yes, I saw where you said "if it was used more." That is why I said it has been ineffective. "If" doesn't accomplish much. And, it will not be used more as long as most Americans reject the concept of ignoring laws we don't like. The proper course is to work to change those laws.
State constitutions, the 9th and 10th amendments do not answer the question of which of our rights you claim are just natural rights. Obviously state constitutions and the 9th and 10th amendments have not stopped most states from passing marijuana laws even though you claim we have the right to use it.
You are trying to make legal rights out of political issues that are determined by the federal and state legislative bodies.

surely you cannot be this obtuse. you know why it's not used more often? because nearly every judge issues jury instructions that they are not allowed to judge the law, only to judge the facts and decide according to how the judge explains the law. the courts go out of their way to ensure that people do not use nullification, robbing the government of their power and control over people.
you just said that people aren't smart enough to know the laws, how do you expect them to work to change them?
again, apathy and stupidity of the people.
you are trying to promote the theory that the government wrote the constitution for us and, as such, modify it as they see fit.
"Commentaries" do not determine the law. It is the opinion of one person. The Supreme Court is only wrong in your opinion, a much larger number accept its decisions.
You still have not told us whether you think any of our constitutional rights in the Bill of Rights can be regulated. Can federal or state governments regulate the age a person can purchase a gun or prohibit a violent felon from doing so. Your views are somewhat vague and mean little until you show us they would apply in actual cases.
lol
I outed you on your cherry-picked bullshit, liar. Handed you your ass.

the commentaries were important because it relayed to the people and their delegates what the articles and amendments meant. Unless you have some sort of super secret document that shows madison saying 'this is what it really means', it's more than just opinion. Or are you saying that the people didn't write the constitution?
and they are dumb as fuck
no, the federal government is supposed to have ZERO power or authority over anything to do with firearms. If a 'violent' felon can't be trusted in public with a gun, they can't be trusted in public and should stay incarcerated.
But the states have the power to regulate guns, speech, etc. based on their reserved powers and the 10th amendment? That means the 2nd can be regulated but only by the states and not the federal government.
SmarterthanYou
rebel
that depends on their state constitutions. for instance, Illinois constitutions 'right to bear arms' comes with the caveat of 'subject to the police power', so they have power to regulate guns. Vermont does not, therefore the state has no power to regulate guns.
the 2nd Amendment was written to prohibit the federal government only
OK. So while you may disagree with the particular policy you have no problem with the constitutional authority of those states that have stricter gun controls like waiting periods, background checks, bans on assault weapons, and gun registration (depending on state constitution). We basically agree.
