Years ago, when one would invent and promote a great product or service, their mindset was to think, why would anyone want to hurt and deprive me of this opportunity? Take for example, the old newspaper dispenser. A simple coin operated machine that allows one to take one newspaper after one puts the correct change in for one newspaper. Right? Why would one take more newspapers other than the intended amount? Well, perhaps it is due to greed, immoral reasoning, and/or the proverbial “getting away with it feeling.” The violator’s intent is knowing that he can sell the papers to others on the train for profit and gain, place them in their barbershop for business or just give them away to friends for the "nice person factor.” This act is usually and commonly known as a sociopathic process. With sociopaths, there is usually a self-centered, egocentric goal in mind for profit, or righteous self-enjoyment.
One of the most disturbing and potentially dangerous crimes that can happen to a family is a home invasion or a forced entry robbery. A home invasion is when a violent criminal forces their way into a currently occupied home, condo, apartment or hotel room to commit a strong or armed robbery, or other violent crimes such as sexual assault, arson, and even murder. It is very frightening because it violates our safety and secluded private area where we live, love, and lounge.
Due to poor economic current conditions, home invasion is like the residential form of an automobile carjacking, and it's on the rise. Like the crime of carjacking, most police agencies don’t track home invasions as a separate crime. Most police agencies and the FBI will statistically record the crime as a residential burglary. I teach individuals and families the correct way to protect themselves against home invasion. We instruct how to create "safe spaces" in your home and defend against these heinous acts of residential violence.
The formal definition of robbery is the taking or attempt to take anything of value from the care, custody, or control of a person or persons by force, or threat of force or violence, and/or by putting the victim in fear. The short definition of robbery is theft from a person by use of force or fear. The necessary elements of the crime are specific intent, theft from a person, by use of force or fear. The level of force or fear does not have to be great to meet the statutory requirement.
There are many methodologies in robberies and burglary. It can happen at home, at the office locker, in your car, on the street, in public washrooms and even in church basements! Criminals look for precise opportunities when it comes to robbery and they wait unit our "guards" are down.
WHAT IS THE CRIMINAL MINDSET DIFFERENCE?
An example of a sociopathic response: a person puts coins in the machine to purchase one newspaper, they decide to take all of the papers at the same time and then proceed to throw the papers all in the trash, thinking the newspaper company rips people off anyway. A psychopath may also get enjoyment knowing that they deprived the company and disadvantaged another morning commuter in the same way without any afterthought or guilty conscience, therefore, leaving them devoid of any feelings. Perhaps the psychopath may wait and watch as another commuter places coins in the machine and learns that there are no more papers in the dispenser they just paid for. The psychopath likes the disenchanted look on the commuters face and feels satisfaction they made a twisted happening. Here are the definitions of two types of criminal mindsets.
sociopath so·ci·o·pathsoh-see-uh-path n.
A person, as a psychopathic personality, whose behavior is antisocial and who lacks a sense of moral responsibility or social conscience, but is still basically in control.
psychopath psy·cho·path (sī'kə-pāth') n.
A person with an antisocial personality disorder, especially one manifested in perverted, criminal, or amoral behavior and is usually out-of-control.
