People steal, murder and and and, but still they have an honest outward appearance.\nWhat causes this behavior?

Criminals have one thing going for them: They know how to gain ones trust. This skill helps them the achieve their ultimate goal. That is why I believe a bit of skepticism when you meet people for the first time is OK. I don't think social morals are dying out, rather, they are changing. Although I don't think that murder and theft will ever be accepted in the literal sense, people have changed their ideas about right and wrong, and to the extent of which what is right and wrong measures. An example of this could be music and piracy laws (stealing), and murdering while depressed, etc. (my thought is murder is murder, and depression should not be used as an excuse, but I was brought up in old school beliefs). You can expect a lot of things to change. In 50 years, someone else is going to be asking the exact same question.

Good to know I am not the only gullible, trusting, honest person out here.  I wouldn't want to change to be more like them as I sleep better at night knowing I did not try to screw someone out of their self worth.  Also, it will catch up with them in the end, as they will want happiness, but it will not come.  Being like WE are also makes me strong in my convictions, which people like THEM are not.  We can stand for what we want, love, believe in, hate, etc.  They live a lie all the time, they are what everyone wants them to be.  It would suck to be that way to me, as being myself makes me so much more independent.

It is because they are too full of themselves that they judge others. I have also noted at times that they fear those who are different in appearance and thinking. I judge people by how they treat others and not how they look.

Honesty.....it is the one thing most do not have, though they would nearly always refute the accusation if challenged ,and that in its self is dishonesty. They seem to have alterior motives in everthing they say and do, in business especially. I am a cynic as I have proved on many occasion that the above is prevelant in most people.

they act that way out of insecurity...they view themselves as inadequate losers and have a compelling need to act tough. \n\ntake it from someone raised in an inner city: the "ghetto" culture is the most vile culture to be raised among. the only thing a kid learns from his "gangsta" friends is how to be nothing but a disrespectful, ignorant and overly-depending leech.\nIf you have children, and if the kids in your neighborhood act and dress "gangsta", please move away to a more decent environment.

Yes, Its just the inability to control your response to stimuli. A condition that corrupts your mind's control over the yearnings of the body. For example: The differnce between man and beast is our ability to determine when and how  we will obey the various urges of the body. Such as hunger, drueling, jelousy, hate or the lust for a human body of the same sex. \n\nt's simply a corruption of the body's harmony with nature. These corruptions happen to many people not only gays. \n\nFor examle, serial killers could make the argument that the desire to murder is in their genes, just as homosexuals do however, society wouldn't accept that ....but  who knows at the rate we are going society could accept anything as the normal. Maybe beastality is next

When people wear certain types of clothing people judge them.  In response that person's behavior changes due to the way others treat them.

because they can't act the way they aren't... just a guess

Actually, everyone is fake. Every single person. Society can't handle man on a primal level, so we have to put on masks to go outside. Everyone has secrets, to me that makes everyone fake. Some people are more fake than others, but it's a function of human nature to make ourselves look better to other people than we really are. Some people are pretty much completely fake, and those people lack integrity.

Character matters - you are right.\nLiberals do not mind character flaws in others so that others don't tell them of THEIR flaws!

I admit that I have a very criminal mind when it comes to stealing.  I have taken things as small as packs of gum when I was 4, to my mom's checkbook when I was 17.  Unfortunately, the turning point for me was when I was 18 and charged with two gas drive offs.  I believe there are three types of people in this world: those who never steal because they know it is wrong, those that steal constantly without thinking about it, and (the biggest group, I think) those who don't steal because they are afraid to get caught.

It's a biological drive. Not all men act like that, some women do. Some people will be deceitful for no reason at all. People are complicated.

That is because you are able to see the underlying issue with other people's problems. Their flaws or personality quirks that may cause them trouble are clear to you, but not to them. Just as your own flaws and quirks are invisible to you. You are too close to your own problem to objectively seek an answer. Lots of insightful people have this problem. Try taking some steps back next time, and see the problem from an outside perspective.

Have you ever really looked at a person's face when they use vulgarity?  Their face contorts into these wicked shapes.  That's the difference.  The beauty of their face fades.

It all depends on their personality. Its whats inside that counts, not how they look or act.

Hi there Wolfie_bear.\nI totally agree with you. Reading people's comments really shows whether they have any brains, class, character or integrity.  Those who find it necessary to be rude, concieted or arrogant....well..they were probably raised by monkeys and have recently descended from the trees, so forgive them.

Some guys act exactly like that, some don't. \n\nIt's impossible to generalise.
