Sometimes I think people are too worried about virtue signaling to other people ("oh, look how righteous I am") that they throw empathy completely out of their window and end up reducing crimes and the commiters of those crimes to just that; criminals. 

Forgive me for not empathising with the kind of scum who drags unconscious women behind dumpsters and rapes them.

I was speaking in general and referring mostly about the father's comment (since that's what the topic is really about), but thanks for proving my point of people worried about virtue signaling not considering context.

That dude who raped thar girl is not just a rapist, he's a son, he's someone's little boy in his father's memory, he's loved by his father (all presumably) and has someone that is worried about his future. God forbit his father takes his son's side. No, the son is just a rapist, that's all he ever was and all he will ever be. Throw him outer space, pls. Now give me a pat in the back for how righteous I am, pls.
