It's a shame it is not as easy as people just speaking up quicker. We have all seen the threads where someone has tried to speak up and it gets turned around to the point they end up having to defend themselves. Who wants to go through that over a few dollars?
Or you get everyone jumping in defending either side, it gets heated, the thread gets closed and nobody knows what to believe.
It takes something big like this, where someone is clearly the bad guy, before the truth comes out.
Not only that but people want to believe the best of others and give them the benefit of doubt. That is wonderful but also why we will see this happen again and again here where there are so many good-hearted people. |
