[xrmusn] “Ah but Mr Denny FORGAVE his attackers. Now that is White Guilt.....or some such malarkey...”

I believe it was Christianity.

Disagree. Stockholm syndrome. That, and the fact that Mr. Denny was brain-damaged by the attack.

His attack remains, like the Goldman-Simpson murder, an unjusticed travesty.

His forgiveness gives no hint that it is the result of brain damage. Pope John Paul II forgave - in person - his would be assassin and he was not brain damaged in the least in 1981. The Stockholm syndrome applies to hostages - not assault victims.

“His attack remains, like the Goldman-Simpson murder, an unjusticed travesty.”

True. And yet he forgave his attackers.
