Usually when we hurt others, it is precisely because we "choose" to ignore the mirror nuerons and the empathic instinct. We can feel what the hurt party is going to feel and we choose to override that feeling and do it anyway.
That is not taking into account sociopaths ... or the occasional confused masochist. :-p
