Why regret? I'm not a family member but I know if I was I would think the same as I think now, with me not being a family member. I'm a little confused on that 1  |
Yes, it's evident that you haven't thought this through.

Hey i dont think I'am better I am better
I dont need to prove nothing! never been arrested never murdered and never raped. And never will. I don't need to show Compassion. I show compassion for the families who are far more important in my eyes than Sutclife

By implication considering one person to be "more important" than another means that another is *less* important or less worthy and that is how *he* considered his victims.
If we are *better* than him we must consider *everyone* to be of equal worth, *NO MATTER* what our personal, emotional, opinions may be of what they have done.
There are plenty of examples of atrocities committed in this world when one group has decided that another is "less than human" or "less worthy" etc. Do you *really* think that is a good way of dealing justice??
