There is only nice and not nice. It doesn't depend on what kind of person he is.
If you wouldn't say it to someone else, why would you say it to him? Did you
ever think maybe a person could change? What if he changed and felt bad for how
he has acted in the past? This wouldn't be such a nice thing to say then. Did
you ever think maybe these kinds of comments encourage the continuation of the
kind of behavior that you, and others, apparently find less than optimal? I
don't imagine, in light of your post, that you thought about any of these
things.
