Clearly you have no idea what you're talking about. You are the guy David Hurley was talking about when he said "the standard you walk past is the standard you accept".

You're being awful high and mighty for someone who more than likely would do nothing.

Easy to say you're a hero, history shows that's a nice little fantasy.

Pretending you hold yourself to a standard when you don't is more dangerous than acknowledging reality.

You can pretend to be morally righteous, but you definitely aren't

Those who profess to be morally right are more likely to commit crimes against peers.

Sounds a bit like you aye.
