True Crime Author Jack Swint has written four cold-case unsolved murder books detailing the senseless, brutal and unsolved killing of children and adult victims from Cleveland, Ohio to Daytona Beach, FL. Swint now wants to direct readers to a new breed of killer he says society is unknowingly creating. And, he points to the teen killing sprees that are occurring in schools, malls, churches and other public places as the evidence. He believes society is inducing murder & mayhem through DVD and online interactive games of violence that actually train our children to become killers. “Compile that with undiagnosed psychological disorders and you have a recipe for disaster.”
“I’m not a psychiatrist, but, some of my own true life experiences may be directly related to why these kids are striking out at anyone they feel have done them wrong.” Now 53 years old, Swint says he was diagnosed in 1997 with borderline personality disease and impulsive behavior disorder and can see his own past traits in this young generation. “On the surface, it appears they have lost all sense of reality and morality as they kill innocent victims and then themselves.”
According to the National Institute of Health, people with BPD often have highly unstable patterns of social relationships. While they can develop intense but stormy attachments, their attitudes towards family, friends, and loved ones may suddenly shift from idealization (great admiration and love) to devaluation (intense anger and dislike). Thus, they may form an immediate attachment and idealize the other person, but when a slight separation or conflict occurs, they switch unexpectedly to the other extreme and angrily accuse the other person of not caring for them at all. People suffering from BPD may experience intense bouts of anger, depression, and anxiety and view themselves as fundamentally bad, or unworthy. Suicide tendencies also exist in people who suffer from this disease.
According to Swint, If you monitor DVD and online games that simulate mass murder, you will find these violent themes and graphics are so real that a person is actually being programmed to kill. “I read studies that claim violence in these games do not promote violence in reality. Further research into the source of those reports, I found the companies who design, promote and sell the games funded the research. This is a billion dollar a year combined industry.” In closing, “If lawmakers can take God out of schools and courts just because it offends someone, we can stop inducing our children into extreme violent behavior.
Besides the cold-case murder books, Swint wrote his own “true memoirs” of a life growing up making impulsive bad decisions that led to a life of crime and destructive behavior. “There were no diagnoses or treatment for these diseases back in the nineteen-seventies. I can not go back and correct my mistakes, but speaking out over the past ten years since being diagnosed hopefully has enlightened others to better understand these disorders.”
