People are dying in Afghanistan and Pakistan. People die here because they cannot afford health care. We still have extremely high unemployment. Yes. We should sit together and talk calmly about these issues. But the fact is that, as we talk, people are dying.

What do you propose doing about the urgency of life or death matters?

And what about torture and other human rights violations. Once a person's sense of self and sanity have been destroyed by torture, by lengthy imprisonments, by forced marches, it is too late.

In some cases, we really have to deal with sociopaths. It's nice to say that people with those personalities can be reasoned with, but it is not true.

Have you ever met a sociopath or even a very narcissistic person (clinically diagnosed)? How do you propose handling them. There are many of these types in powerful positions including in the government. What is your solution?
