I agree. My point is that sometimes people ASSUME that because someone has a different opinion, they must have different experiences. But this is not always the case. I just hate to see such people claim their opinion has more value because of their experiences when they didn't even stop to ask themselves if the other party maybe has had a similar experience. Some rape-victims want to murder the man who did it or at least see him get the death penalty, some just want to see him locked away.
