Vulnerability does not affect how bad i think a crime is

Often, I hear people giving a lot of compassion and sympathy when something bad happens to those who are perceived as defenseless, and quite the opposite for those who are not. I personally do not care whether someone is a defenseless soul or a macho man. In my opinion, the criminal deserves the same punishment for the crime.

Honestly, if someone was a victim of torture murder, I don't care if it was a handicapped special needs man or Terry Crews. Torture is torture, murder is murder, and that criminal either needs to be rehabilitated or eliminated from society. No, I don't care whether a rape victim is a defenseless woman or an armed man. No, I don't care if the abuse victim is autistic or normal. Your motive was not to punish or self-defense. You were still being a cruel mofo.

Granted, some groups are more vulnerable than others, and so there probably should be extra effort to protect them and elevate them to equality. However, I do not a crime that happens towards a less vulnerable person as any better. Of course, seeing defenseless individuals probably will evoke more feelings from me, but via my thoughts, I do not see any difference between hurting a defenseless person or a macho guy/gal, and in my view, the criminal deserves the same punishment for all cases.

Is it normal to hold this view?
