The difference between petty muggers and Hitler is so stark in degree as to amount to a difference in kind, and if you sincerely don't recognize or accept that then I fear for your ability to navigate any situation in life that can't be dealt with through intimidating or impressing people with shallow canards and macho posturing. If that's supposed to be what it means to 'be a man' then I'd rather be castrated.
You're missing my point.
Man walks down the street and is attacked by a guy. I feel sympathy for the man and want a harsh punishment for the attacker.
Man walks down the street to buy Meth and is attacked by the guy. The attacker still deserves harsh punishment, but the man dealing in drugs is no longer innocent, thus the sympathy is gone.
See?
No. I don't see. I can understand not
liking the second man, but not having any sympathy for him makes it sound like you have a personality disorder. (It's also not the point that you appeared to have originally been trying to make.)
