Reply to comment by manocheese in Study uncovers a surprising level of heterogeneity in psychopathy among condemned capital murderers: While a substantial proportion of the offenders exhibited heightened psychopathic features, others showed no signs of psychopathy by HeinieKaboobler

Where's the data on that? People in the US are among the most unhealthy in the world, have some of the highest rates of anti anxiety, adderall and opioid prescriptions and very little community structure compared to European cultures. It's a breeding ground for extremism.

Just one example.

Where's the data that links prescriptions, addictions or lack of community to violence and/or extremism?

There's plenty of extremism in Europe, even Sweden have a right-wing, populist government now. Poland had "LGBT Free" areas. Yet the murder rate in the USA is what, 10 times the rate of most European countries?
