Sympathy given to those giving out pain and negative things similar to pain and/or associated to it, by those in power, cause widespread punishment of such things to be limited; this sympathy being given because those in power can be sympathetic to the criminals.

There can be no argument that physical pain may be enough to cause gratuitous pain.

"Any statement which qualifies itself with the sentence 'with this there can be no argument' is infinitely arguable."
