I just don't want a to see a situation like the following:
"Yes, we admit we all ganged up on him, but the way he defended himself
against our attack was worse than anything we did to him; so, he should
be punished, and we should all get away scott free!"
I would tread VERY CAREFULLY before advocating any 'princples' that
smack of this, especially in the hearing of any Jewish men or women who
have strong feelings about the Holocaust.
