and how do you call people that lack any and all empathy for other humans or for any animals, but that never commit crimes and can function quite well in society?

i most often here these being referred to as psychopaths, but according to the link these would be sociopaths.

or is total lack of empathy but no violence something else?


Anyway, i think the guy that was the owner of the african rock python was neither. if he would be the impulsive kind, it would show much more in the past and in statements about him. if he would be the planning kind, then it doesnt fit because its a damn stupid plan, best case scenario is that everyone hates him, non-snake-keepers and snake-keepers alike, because he failed to have the snake under control. (or because he kept it in the first place, or because he kept it near children).
