Granted, that was on the last tube available on a Saturday night in Camden, but you never know what a stranger who is clearly out of their mind is going to do.

Which is my point, really. If we could rely on everyone there who agrees with us to back us up, there wouldn't be a problem, it's just that everyone (including myself) has an "it's not my business" filter, which stops us from getting involved. Because of that, it's dangerous to speak out, because you on your own isn't a particularly strong army. So long as that attitude is prevalent, the "I don't give a ****" minority will never shut up.
