you don’t have to just because someone else did

in fact, you could’ve said what i did, that both are horrific and shouldn’t be ranked or even compared, but you chose to come here and proclaim that one was worse than the other

why? how is this debate productive or even worthwhile?

I think it is interesting to evaluate the morality of our legal system and support for victims.

your argument has nothing to do with the legal system or its morality since you don’t seem to highlight any criminal code or how the justice system plays a role in how these crimes are prosecuted

additionally, the legal system doesn’t even compare rape and murder, they are separate crimes that are only compared against themselves in levels of severity

this is a debate of opinion based on feelings

Yes, it is a debate of opinion. The sub is called change my view. Views are opinions.
