You are correct.  As far as I know, there is no cure, chemical or otherwise, for psychopathy.  Once a psychopath, always a psychopath.

They usually have no remorse.

The ones I've been around have no empathy or remorse.  I do believe there are various degrees of psychopathy, but no cure.

Yes, they are saying that he is a psycho path which is a serious personality disorder. Not to be confused with a mental illness.

As far as I know there was nothing in his past that would lead one to believe he was mentally ill.  We cannot take away the rights of someone based upon their father's actions or mental illnesses.

Are people misusing that symbol too?

Im guilty of misusing it in the "last" thread, which is a joking around type of thread. So no one takes it seriously there. 

But I have used it for real in a couple of threads where folks were baiting and fighting.

His father was diagnosed as a psychopath (or whatever the official term is) but he was never diagnosed with that, from what Im hearing on the news.

My question still stands.  Why bring this up in a thread about such a tragedy?  Are you not doing the same thing they are doing and using this tragedy to score political points?

Let me first off say I think this is a horrible tragedy, and agree with you that much is not known. While I can't rule out Muslim involvement, neither can I blame isis as there is simply to few facts.

As to answer your question, I'll answer it the same way I answer a friend of mine who is very anti gun, as to why I start pushing my second amendment views after shootings like this. And that is this: it does no good for fight a battle if you arrive late to the battlefield, by then you've already lost.

The left, after every shooting immediately starts screaming for gun control. And it's always nonsensical, and they rely on emotions, not facts, to push their message and sway the populace. If we wait to fire back, it will be to late, gun control measures will already be in place. So yes I start pushing my pro gun views immediately and start calling the left out on their garbage immediately, because that's where and when the battlefield is-right now.

Regardless, my prayers are with Vegas tonight, it was a horrible tragedy. We actually have someone from where I live who was wounded in that tragedy, while I don't know him I have a co-worker that does.

You are saying that the father was diagnosed with psychopathic personality disorder but the son was not? Some personality disorders can be hereditary but I think that is only borderline personality disorder. We don't know the whole picture on the son.

Time to stop pointing fingers at the person posting and start discussing the subject.  Continuance will get people removed from the thread.

It seems people are almost desperate for it to be ISiS, the idea that it is just some joe seems to be too much for many people to handle.

I did not say he was mentally ill.
