[Closed] Why do people responsible for evil acts look so evil?

If that was truely the case being a policeman would be a doddle.

Charlie Chaplin big silent movie star, Adolf Hitler disturber of the peace, both looked similar.

Not saying they don't but maybe when the photographers take 1300 digi snaps of ppl, especially when getting in their way with a camera pushed into their face & others maybe heckling them, maybe one or two have a facial expression we'd all prefer not published.

Because the meeja select the pics which are closest to portraying the subject with whatever label/angle they're trying to push.

If you were the pictures editor choosing photos for a story about people who'd done something evil, you wouldn't pick the one of them looking lovely, smiling and cuddling a kitten, would you?

Edit: pies beat me to it.

Its not just evil. Stupidity always looks the same too. Every single scrote that appears in the Manchester Evening News, for whatever scrotish behavior they've been collared for, looks indistinguishable from the next one. a whole sub-species of vacant, moronic clones

Same goes for most Tories 😉

Look at most passport photos, let along the mugshots taken at the local cop shop. Combined that with the brain knowing they are crims and almost anyone would look dodgy.

You mean this one?

Can't see it myself. If I didn't know I'd say they looked pretty normal.

(Which is more scary really)

Maybe it's because I'm Bipolar, so (as with with most Bipolar people) I've spent a life ignoring the obvious and looking deep into people eyes to see the real person?

If that was truely the case being a policeman would be a doddle.

Funny you say that, what with Bipolar people having certain skills that regular people generally don't (e.g. more sensitive hearing, better sense of smell, more observant, etc) I've often wondered whether various employers could benefit from recruiting people with certain mental illnesses.

I see what you mean. This is one nasty ****er from the 70s/80s, he used to hang about with a right bunch of weirdos and he used to sleep in the same bed with 2 other males, all wearing pyjamas and another blond guy used to come in and 'read them a story'

Im an ugly bastard and I am evil, so yes, it makes the detectives easier to find me when I kill again.

Image is everything, but context can add so much.

So basically you can manipulate it all.

Confirmation bias and media coverage which plays into it.

Oh, and further to my last... When I found that picture of Hyndley graduating, the story was all about how evil and manipulative she is for trying to educate herself and appear normal. So even with the nice pic they had to put a twist on it.

Hindley in nice mode is the absolute double of one of my wife's friends. I think I'll avoid telling her this though.

Wait til you're drunk.

He looks quite a nice chap in this picutre

It's weird that, bin laden photos are usually pretty normal looking. I suppose he had more control over what photos were available, quite media savvy...

But then, a paranoid person might suggest that some folks would be quite happy for an islamic terrorist to look like a normal everyday person, so you can be afraid of all the other normal everyday middle eastern dudes.

I'd go for the fact that people aren't at their best when mugshots are taken - drunk, drugged, stressed, disheveled, hungover, etc and the lighting isn't chosen for it's flattering properties. They aren't smiling for the camera.

Is there such a thing as a nice picture of Hindley ?

why is it so many nasty people actually look bloody nasty?

You'd nod and say hello to this bloke if you passed him on the way to work, if you saw him in the supermarket, or filling station. He might even be a neighbour, someone you might go for a beer or two with.
Good, upstanding citizen...

Theodore Robert "Ted" Bundy (born Theodore Robert Cowell; November 24, 1946 – January 24, 1989) was an American serial killer, rapist, kidnapper, and necrophile who assaulted and murdered numerous young women and girls during the 1970s and possibly earlier. After more than a decade of denials, he confessed shortly before his execution to 30 homicides committed in seven states between 1974 and 1978; the true total remains unknown, and could be much higher.
[b]Bundy was regarded as handsome and charismatic by his young female victims, traits he exploited in winning their trust.[/b] He typically approached them in public places, feigning an injury or disability, or impersonating an authority figure, before overpowering and assaulting them at a more secluded location. He sometimes revisited his secondary crime scenes for hours at a time, grooming and performing sexual acts with the decomposing corpses until putrefaction and destruction by wild animals made further interaction impossible. He decapitated at least 12 victims and kept some of the severed heads in his apartment for a period of time as mementos. On a few occasions, he simply broke into dwellings at night and bludgeoned victims as they slept.

There is no way to know unfortunately but then we it is made worst by the fact that we sometime do not trust our gut instincts ... because it's not scientific. 🙄

It's a form of projection as well, you know what they've done so you associate the crime with the visual image due to the subconscious joining

Well, I posted 2 up the page, so apparently yes.

Maybe it's because I'm Bipolar, so (as with with most Bipolar people) I've spent a life ignoring the obvious and looking deep into people eyes to see the real person?

Sounds more like you should be an optician.

Sorry but I don't really buy into the look into peoples eyes to see the real person inside.

Evil don't look like anything
