Craig Sturdevant, Sociology I, LU.
First day of class, he lectured on the supplies which were delivered to a natural disaster, to the best of my recollection, they included 5,000 sets of falsies.
Then he brought in his buddy, who just sat there and said nothing. The class went ape shit, they didn't know how to deal with someone like that...it was out of their realm of experience.
The vast majority attacked him, asking why he was just sitting there and not responding. And I imagine that the vast majority never made the connection that is was none of their concern if he wanted to just set their and say nothing.
They didn't understand that the problem was theirs, and not the instructor who didn't behave as they were accustomed to.
The point being is to ask yourself as to what your motivation is before confronting someone else who is doing no more than existing.
Look inward before you look outward, or at least that's the lesson I picked up.
