While it may be that no one is perfect, a whole lot of us are much better than that piece of shit mentioned in the article. By repeatedly saying that no one is perfect, you are deflecting blame from that criminal, as if he were not deserving of special treatment. The simple fact is, he does deserve special mention for being a particularly bad person, doing something that many of us would never do.
If you think he is like everyone else in how bad he is, you must be a pretty nasty piece of shit yourself. Otherwise, you would be thinking how it is much worse than anything you have ever done, or even seriously considered doing.
