Psychopaths are simply people who do not feel empathy or react to stimuli the way normal people would. They will feel no consequences to their actions whatsoever and morality is an abstract concept to which they can never feel obligated. They will not react to death, incest, violence, sadism, or any shocking behavior the way a normal person would, and are immune to feeling regret or compunction. A psychopath will never feel the need to apologize or seek forgiveness.
Since they are usually hostile, sometimes violent, and often very abrasive, in addition to deceitful and manipulative, these people may seem evil, but under all that, they are simply miserable. The rage may not develop immediately, but usually by the age of four or so, the child is already in such a continual state of frustration that rageful acts of sometimes shocking violence -- including attempted murder -- are possible and should be anticipated.
