Not turning in your criminal neighbor is a far cry from supporting that criminal when he is caught.

We are not talking about silence, we are talking about the numbers of people who take an active part in support for those who are criminals. We are talking about marches, vigils, interviews, cards, letters and active support, not keeping one's mouth shut in fear of retaliation.
