"US military vet here.
Anyone who's been in combat will tell you that the psychopaths do VERY well under fire. Psychopathy is absolutely essential in wartime (as Chris mentions), because you need those guys who are fearless and ruthless. They don't hesitate, they act. Saw it in action. Psychopaths emerge from combat theaters with a chest full of medals. But those same guys, turned loose in civilian life, can be monsters. I saw that, too." - Guy in YouTube Comments

"I worked with a psychopath and the most fascinating thing about him was his perspective on any given thing, I'm not sure if it was exclusive to him but his ability to think outside the box was beyond normal." - Another guy in YouTube comments
