It is foolish to remain ignorant to human cruelty because it is real. Those who have been guilty of it need to take responsibility and accept the consequences for such action. The punishment will always fit the crime, but not all human cruelty can be categorized as what one commonly accepts as being a crime. It can come in simpler, more hurtful ways as well. Even if one does not hold to a religion, repentance and penance need to be undertaken in order to take steps in the right direction.
