And I believe that naive people need to be guided and not laughed at. Who
here would point and snicker at someone who 'just got off the boat' into a
strange land where the rules and folks are unknown to him? Who here, in a
similar situation, would appreciate a helping hand to guide him on his way,
instead of being ridiculed (albeit very tamely by you). That's all--no
bigger than that.
Basically it's like seeing someone walking down the street and his foot is
just about to step in a big pile of doo--Do you snicker and think "Oh this
is going to be funny", or do you attempt to guide the oblivious person away
from the doo? I know what I would appreciate from my fellow person if I was
the one whose foot was heading towards a nasty situation.
