People with antisocial personality disorder might display what the DSM-V refers to “callous behavior”, including a lack of guilt or remorse about their negative actions. They may be easily angered and easily insulted. They could be impulsive or act without regard to consequences. Studies have shown that narcissist are aware of their own narcissism and this might indicate that changing their behavior is possible. People with antisocial personality disorder are less likely to admit that their behavior is a problem.

Topics of people behaving badly are frequent on TOTV. A loud radio at the community pool will be justified by some as harmless even in the face of complaints stating otherwise. Go to a different pool if it bothers you or bring your own music are some comments. Dog owners allowing their pet to defecate on someone else’s lawn is ok since the issue hasn’t been resolved. Golf etiquette refers to a set of rules and practices designed to make the game of golf safer and more enjoyable for golfers and to minimize possible damage to golf equipment and courses. Some golfers would rather not repair their ball marks on the green, not rake the bunkers, talk while you’re playing your shot, hit multiple tee shots even when they have a ball in play, could care less if their group falls way behind the pace of play and play their music as loud as they want in their golf cart.

Are people that break the rules or don’t care that their behavior is considered negative going to change because someone brings up the topic on TOTV? It appears that more than a few don’t feel their actions are negative and so why would they change?

I’m not an expert or care to defend anything I say. If I'm wrong I have no problem admitting it. As facts come in I reserve the right to change my mind.

Excellent point of view!
