Someone asks you to describe a serial killer. How would you describe one?

Serial Killer: an individual who has killed three or more people over a period of more then a month, with downtime in between each killing.

I see one anytime I look in the mirror.

Nah just kidding. It'd sure be fun, but I'm too lazy.

I can imagine a serial killer being the most average joe ever.

Kind hearted, the saviour of mankind, the one sane person in a world of lunatics, the one who has the vision no one else has. The correct vision.
And should thus punish the infidels and the impure.

Someone that clears out the some of the clutter of the U.S. population so that there will be less trafic.

A serial killer.

Let's assume it's a man. Let's assume he lived his childhood, grew up, went to parties, fucked all the women he pleased because of his badass nature. He floated through school just easily enough to claim it was natural. He leads a good life. Maybe he's just like you, or maybe he's just like me.

Let's assume he, at some point or another, thinks he has a "better" or "more pure" worldview than you or me. I mean, everyone has these fleeting thoughts now and then, over little things like disagreeing with Sharia Law or the Holocaust. But really, what separates your dislike for these ideals from his hatred for ideals like socialism and (what he sees to be) false worship?

Maybe what separates him from you or me is his conviction. His willpower, his fucking balls. The fact that he's willing to go so far as to carry the 11th Rule to the fullest extent. He won't allow another to stand in his way, he'll do what he needs to to crush his opposition.

All that separates a serial killer from you or me is that he will stand for what he believes in, probably more than we ever would.

A serial killer can be counted as a part of us, in a way. Serial killers derive from an already built system which is known as our physiological, mental and abstract principles. Whether people want to accept this, or not, we are all merely a few steps away from being a serial killer. It takes a plan, cunning, a weapon of choice and a victim to go down that path. We act like these people are far from us, when 4 simple actions can open this Pandor'a Box of counter psychology.

Someone you can't describe.

They are quite easy to describe. They aren't as far off from ourselves as we like to make it appear. Some fall under a ritual of self-gratification, while missing out on the moral foundation and intellectual virtues for other people's lives. Others fall under a ritual of anger and resentment with a shade of penance from past experiences. It's all something we could avoid if we took better of ourselves, our world and the sole fact that we are observers in a world of experience.

There is a possibility that my father and I have found the Zodiac Killer (he died in February, but we still have eye-capturing evidence to prove so), and we have done extensive research on this man. You are wrong to call him a serial killer, he wasn't a serial killer. He was an egotistical non-conformist who was detatched from reality. He did not murder people just because he wanted to, but through cunning and his hatred for his mother, that is why he was so hard to catch. He would brutally confuse the Valejo Police Department, by sending them on wild goose chases, and his 'disguise' was actually him not wearing any disguise at all. Just sunglasses and a different hairstyle. That is why one of the boys who were an eye witness said ''the guy looked normal''. By no means was Zodiac a serial killer. He was an ego-tripist high off of pretentious ire towards his bad childhood experience. I am even under the impression that the last murder he was involved in, the taxi driver being killed, was actually a friend of the Zodiac's. They said that the taxi driver only let close friends sit in the front seat, and it was the end of Zodiac's reign, so there is a possibility that the Zodiac finally felt remorse and ended it - only to find my mother online, and come here to die 4 years later. This man was definately Zodiac material, and his belongings are an even more precise dead ringer. We also have pictures that match the composite drawings and samples from places our guy was at, which happens to be in the exact same place The Zodiac was at.

The quiet, calculating, intelligent ones, the ones that are smart enough to plan their every action to the letter to kill their target.
The ones that are not going to back down for anything. The ones who would throw any man, woman, or child under the bus if it meant that they could make a pretty penny.

Of course you all know who I'm talking about

Someone who kills people?

This is always the first thing that pops up into my head.

Someone who kills people consistently?

Either someone absolutely reckless and is overtly insane with everything they do (e.g. Ed Gein) or the most average man alive who is secretly insane with, usually, a sexual fetish that can not be satisfied otherwise (e.g. Ted Bundy), who proceeds to kill at least three individuals at three separate occasions.

Turn on your webcam and I'll describe them to you.

Or you could just turn around.

he looked like a man

a black man >(

a person who kills one person then isnt caught, then kills another one and isnt caught, then keeps doing that

Alright for future reference, we were gonna name all the brown races in the world. I know Korean isn't brown, but they're like the fake Japan, so they count. Like Canadians suck and all, but they're too white.

Nah man, Uzbekistanians are actually pretty cool people. They've made vast contributions to global culture and the global economy. For instance, did you know that a Street Car Named Desire was written by an Uzbekistanian? The sales from which dug Russia out of an imminent economic collapse?

No shit? That's actually really cool. I didn't know that, I now feel smarter having been told that valuable piece of information. Thank you saqwert for sharing your vast amount of knowledge with me.
