I guess we just hope the next time, it's a person we don't like either and not someone we're sympathetic to.

This is the problem with treating this dude like a hero: it's encouraging others - and not everyone who's encouraged to do something like this is going to be people who maybe have the same sympathies as you.

He might have heard that too.
How do you tell someone to just be OK with injustice and corruption?
How do you expect them to believe it?
You're a white, 20-something male... would you rather grow up, get married, have kids, and grow old in a world where you're just supposed to accept injustice and corruption or do something about it?

(2,379 posts)unless we are psychopaths we draw lines in the sand to proscribe our behavior. but that is all the line is - drawn in sand.
for people we typically call very 'good' or very 'ethical' maybe the lines are deeper, better demarcated. with humans, fundamentally there is a thin veneer of compliance over a dangerous animal.
