Rorschach is basically the Punisher - it’s only luck that he likes to kill and torture “bad people”, and he shows himself that he’s pretty flexible on the definition of “bad”.
As a non-Irish-catholic who was not alive in 1940s America, I honestly can’t make heads or tails of how conventional or steadfast his morals are, for that crowd. It’s a common mistake to reference modern or personally felt sentiments as objective, when they are not. They are exceedingly contemporaneous and location dependent.
But he’s a violent, insane, religious man in the 60s, so there’s probably something off beyond turning the dial up to 1100
