I was never "into" serial killers in the way some people were. My interest was in a "case study of human behavior"
sort of way. Of how a person could be the guy next door, a friendly bank teller or cashier at the local market and
turn out to be a Jeffrey Dahmer.
Speaking of which, I always had a soft spot in my heart for Dahmer. Let me finish, haha, for the person I feel
he could've been were he not so badly warped and broken. I think his father was responsible for untold amounts
of abuse. Going on impressions I got watching several interviews with both Jeffrey and his father. And if it wasn't
him, it came from somewhere. Not ruling out "possession" or just badly defective wiring, but I feel it was more
environmental.
He [Jeffrey Dahmer] just always struck me as someone that had a great capacity for kindness and compassion but
was obviously and violently pushed onto the wrong path. Again, who or what is to blame is anybody's guess. I just
don't think it was inherent evil that caused him to do what he did.
I always felt sorry for him, like he was the victim of some super fucked up identity theft. I am in NO WAY excusing
any of what he did. Regardless of how he arrived on that dark path, he was there and very much present during
every last act. He admitted to knowing what he was doing was wrong, but said he was powerless to stop it.
It's a terrible thing to see a life turned into such a tragedy, not to mention the poor victims and the surviving
families. As beautiful as this world can sometimes appear, there also remains great potential for brutal savagery.
