Lawfulness is based on agreement, and unless there is 100% agreement, it doesn't work completely (notice it never works completely anywhere). And psychopaths exist everywhere on earth, in all culture and nations, and always have. Unless we figure out a way to turn people into compliant zombies, it may always exist.

We know that many learned behaviors (or lack of learning something to modify what's already there) occur between the ages of 2 and 5, so unless we figure out how to reach humans early and do it completely, this is going to be with us a very long time.

  "Lawfulness is based on agreement, and unless there is 100% agreement, it doesn't work completely ".
  
  I believe there are Absolute points within the Moral Compass.
  
  I think there is a Spirit and Intent within the General Accords between Nations that can be used to good purpose. I think we all have a moral compass. People need to get involved.
  
  I think there are many places on Earth where the World watches horror and does nothing to help. No help from East or West.
  
  Why?

    It is not them, it is affecting therefore it is not a priority.
    
    Just like people who will watch someone get mugged and do nothing about it !!!
    
    People are mostly interested in helping themselves anymore.

  In my view, psychopaths are, indeed a danger, but now nearly as big a danger as compliant zombies are.
