    Of course it’s not where I draw the line. Don’t be obtuse.

    When asked who deserves sympathy, I gave an answer— and a far more deserving one than this dope.

      Even the worst people in history were at some point just a child that we could have potentially saved. Even as an adult, or after doing evil, I think sympathy and compassion never stops being the right answer. It’s just in practice we have to prioritise: the needy, the many.
