That's touched on in "The Gift of Fear." That these people are not heroes, they are evil they are losers and deserve NO attention. BTW, it's a fantastic book. I recommend that and "The Sociopath Next Door" often. Really opened my eyes. All y'all — trust your gut and stay safe.

Unfortunately, I did end up occasionally selling porn that I had a problem with (Max Hardcore's a pretty good example), because I worked for a store where I had no control over inventory and would likely have gotten in trouble if I'd refused.
