Nothing in my quote stated anything in regards to KILLING another person, child or adult and your Gacy parallel is on it's face absurd.
What I did bring to light is that not turning a blind eye towards something and championing a position on something you believe in strongly is no different than Fundamentalist Christians and Mulsim faiths also imposing their belief structures upon others. At some point there is the ground to agree to disagree and leave people to live their lives as they see fit.
Looking back at American history, Southern states didn't see slavery as immoral but as a lifestyle that provided an economy of living, thus they could not understand any wrongdoing or immorality. We wax nostaligic at the American forefathers forgetting or even not knowing that most of them were slave owners.
