NYU Student explains to Nick Shirley why she would let rapists walk free

This is an actual NYU student explaining, on camera to Nick Shirley, why she would prefer her own rapist remain free on the streets. Suicidal empathy.

Shirley: "Let's just say somebody who has raped a woman."

Student: "Totally."

Shirley: "Would you like them to be out in the street?"

Student: "I think my answer is yes. Even though that's a challenging answer to say."

Shirley: "So if you got raped, would you like your rapist to be out in the street?"

Student: "Well, let me finish, because I have been raped and they are out in the street, and I'm not sure them going to jail is a solution to whatever's going on inside their heart or even my own heart that contributed to that experience that I'm having.

And I don't want more people to get raped, but I don't know for certain that going into a jail in the United States is going to shift anything inside of their operating system so that they'll make a different choice again."

Shirley: "Wow. Well, thank you guys so much for your time. And is there one last message you'd like to give to the people about potential the rise of communism or freeing the people inside the prisons?"

Student: "Just free yourself from the prison in your heart and then maybe we."
