SHOCK, NUMBNESS AND SILENT RESILIENCE

////////////////////SCIAM=Raine reviews the brain scans he made of 41 murderers, in which he found significant impairment of their prefrontal cortex. Such damage “results in a loss of control over the evolutionarily more primitive parts of the brain, such as the limbic system, that generate raw emotions like anger and rage.” Research on neurological patients in general, Raine adds, shows that “damage to the prefrontal cortex results in [increased] risk-taking, irresponsibility, and rule-breaking behavior,” along with personality changes such as “impulsivity, loss of self-control, and an inability to modify and inhibit behavior appropriately” and cognitive impairment such as a “loss of intellectual flexibility and poorer problem-solving skills” that may later result in “school failure, unemployment, and economic deprivation, all factors that predispose someone to a criminal and violent way of life.”



////////////// In Raine's concluding remarks, he exhorts us to “rise above our feelings of retribution, reach out for rehabilitation, and engage in a more humane discourse on the causes of violence. 




////////////////..........Circumstances certainly play a role in behavior. An example would be an individual who is attacked by another and forced to use lethal force in order to survive. We have to be able to make the distinction between the two forms of behavior - circumstantial and intentional.




//////////////............Whether the brain is harmed by tumor or forced to 'miswire' during growth by stresses and injuries, society must be protected from crime.
Psychology is usually the slowest of all 'healers' when it succeeds at all.
The future is to genetically repair the brain, and all of the body. 




////////////////............Understanding the cause doesn't mean they are absolved of the crime and won't be punished. The point is the danger they present to others.
