You would if it were your child, or yourself and you would be glad of the support of others. Look at little Jamie Bolger. When we are able to either relate to or imagine the fear that little boy would have been in we have a physical reaction through the vagus nerve, it responds to what we are hearing and seeing and it is mostly a feeling of dread and loss, sadness and sorrow for that tiny helpless little boy.

The vagus nerve picks up shock and fear and other reactions from our organs to different things. Sometimes we are nauseated, others we are sad or angry. There are many reactions to be had.

When you feel nothing it probably scares others because those who hurt that little boy felt nothing for him either, they were capable of such torture and for someone to say "big deal" then those who are shocked and saddened feel they are looking at someone who would do the same things and have no remorse. They see it as "If you don't relate to the little hurt one, then you relate to the killer" that scares most people.

Theres only one killer I relate to and that is the one who flips the switch that starts a lethal injection; there has to be someone willing to stop the murderers of innocents because once done they will do it again and there is only one way to stop them, and that is to take away their life, and to do it behind bars so that their soul never leaves that prison. This isn't about forgiveness it's about taking care of someone who doesn't care about their crime or forgiveness. There is a point of no return.
