I'm wondering why folks are able to agree and acknowledge child abusers, sexual predators, racists, neglecting parents...etc deserve punishment for their cruel acts. YET...they fail to find empathy for the victims who oftentimes end up becoming traumatized severely from it (imagine being abused your entire childhood/teenage years without speaking about it). Guess where a big majority of these folks reside? To me, they are some of the strongest people in the world I know, and their substance use is merely to escape from their harsh realities for a couple of hours a day.
