If someone beats you up every time you interact with them, it would fair to fear for your safety before you knew for sure that they would attack you the next time you saw them. It's not just "not liking" your attacker.


Correct. It’s fair to be weary of them in general.

But it wouldn’t be fair to say that they rape girls in the alley, or throw up your hands and say “look, we don’t have much proof either way!”. It’s a completely baseless accusation that makes it harder to talk about real problems.
