No, I'm pretty sure I am atypical of any and all significant population groups. So said the High Lord Standardized Testing Deity, so say we all. Sometimes I wonder if they should have made a "WTF" category for the few outlier oddities such as myself.
This is kind of why we get the idea that you're Evil. You don't act in ways that show these things.
I am perfectly content with whatever evaluation you might care to assign to my character.
That said, I have consistently posted in opposition of any violent outcome from OWS; I have consistently called for determined, ethical stewardship of our natural resources, and my position on health care is in favor of a centralized, National Health Service with comprehensive reform of compensation and liability. I have elaborated at length on how SNAP works, how it can be improved, and how important it is to the baseline economy and to the cause of Peace. I have suggested alterations in the tax code code that *would* act rapidly to re-balance the wealth disparity, and generally support including spiritual and ethical education within our school system.
What you imply is that you can not accept that someone would act in accord with justice, honor, and dignity without playing the ridiculous emotional hand-wringing, pity the victim, game. Well, pity I do not have, and will not accommodate, nor feign its affect. Something is just, or it is not. Not all unjust things can be undone or mitigated, but all actions one pursues can be done according to that which is just.
For me, this is sufficient.
