You are saying that you would be happy to have a pint with a rapist, and somehow you are offended that other people take issue with that.You personally wouldn't want to hang out with him. And that's grand.
I wouldn't necessarily want to hang out with him either, but I said I'd have a pint with him.
Because you wouldn't want to hang out with him, nobody else should either?
One of these men is in jail and the other isn't. The justice system dealt with each in a way that it saw fit. Not saying I agree with it, but that's the fact.
