Whether Durst deserves his status as a pop-cultural punching bag is a matter of personal taste

Alan Moore’s response to the accusation that his comics feature rape too frequently was that rape happens too frequently. In fact happens far more frequently than most of the other kinds of violence his comics also feature.
