But once you stand up as a person who is an UPSTANDING CITIZEN and full of morals, you look like a hypocritical fool once you show your true colors and let people know that you never gave a fuck in the first place.
Yes, you may look like a hypocritical fool to people who don't bother to read the entire explanation of why you took the action you did, and try to understand it.
That's what makes it so hard for Brad to do what he did - and what is going to make it very hard for me to do what I'm going to do in my small community.

But I think that people who readily admit "I know for a fact that I have no morals" find it hard to believe that others really do --- and that when it comes down to difficult moral decisions, those people with morals sometimes find that in order to survive, they may have to compromise them. You probably also think that Brad's post was to solicit tube business --- and not something that he agonized over for some time before posting, because it was the right thing to do. C'est la vie.
