wouldn't it be interesting if they chose to have more compasion for others than they'd have for themselves.
i think it's incredibly self-serving and self-righteous when people try to defend child molestors and murders, because i think showing mercy is very self-righteous.
A lot of british people seem to think that by showing mercy to horrible people, it means that THEY themselves are better people. They pardon horrible people in an attempt to seem more merciful themselves. it's so self-serving, and shows that they have no compassion at all for the actual victims of crimes.
It's so self righteous, it's sickening.
