Great point. Additionally I believe that if we actually went out and hunted for meat instead of just buying it people would have a different perspective on this. We are very insulated as a people from what animals do to each other in the wild, and to those of us who eat meat we indirectly do to them as well. Of course what he did was awful but raping or abusing a woman is much much worse.
