That is the nice thing - you do not have to worry about that. I know many people (the majority, probably) who "do not want to get involved" - fade into the woodwork - do not speak out. The meek. Perhaps they shall inherit the world, but I, for one, cannot sit there and be silent in the face of obvious injustice. We need people who will speak for those unable to, for those in (true) need (get that, Demos?), for what is right, not what is right for me.

Laws that forbid the carrying of arms... disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man. --- Jefferson's "Commonplace Book," 1774-1776, quoting from On Crimes and Punishment, by criminologist Cesare Beccaria, 1764
