Absolutely. Go tell all those gay and trans people that they should’ve showed their murderers more compassion.

I’m not saying that what you suggest is impossible, but it’s idealistic and naïve.

Being a murder is different than being a bigot.

I would bet the vast majority of bigots, have never killed anyone.

  But a whole lot of them would vote for somebody who has.

    Perhaps. But that still wouldn’t make them killers.

    If someone hands a loaded gun to someone who they believe intends to commit murder, do you believe that they are not a part of the murder committed?

  I would bet with many the only reason none of them have killed someone is because they would get in trouble with the law, not because they are morally against it.

    That could be possible.
    
    Though going to a time and place where the target group were so “othered” (is that a word) as to not even be human, that removes more mental barriers than simply the law.
