The word prejudice refers to prejudgment, or forming an opinion before becoming aware of the relevant facts of a case. I don't think it applies to those you listed as an example. In those cases, we are well aware of the facts. Hating a child abuser isn't prejudice, it's a perfectly normal disgust at an abhorrent act.
