I don't think he's equating the two cases...yet (I know, I know...you didn't ask me, you asked Rich). Still, with the current trends in society, it seems interesting that we are apparently creating a designated "whipping boy" to suit the moral themes which are being more and more propagated in our social structures these days.

Why can't we make murderers, thieves and child molesters the objects of our scorn and constant moral outrage, and leave people who just want to do each other in mutual peace and harmony alone?
