The thing is, vampires are ultimately just people who live a very long time. Some of them are nicer and will stick to feeding from the consenting with a bottle of True Blood now and then to tide them over; others are psychopaths as much as humans are. That's what Flannigan needs to make clear to the public -- along with the fact that the nicer vamps won't let the psychopaths speak for all of them.
But in the long run, the psychopaths have a higher survival rate. The sneaky ones, at least. The more ruthless you are, the better odds you have of eating each night. The careless psychopaths will tick off enough people that at least one of 'em will be smart enough to take them out.
