The attitude you take toward very harmful situations not easy to choose, because such things are truely revolting and sensations like nausea occur as reflexes, and in many cases it's kinder to physically harm a perpetrator that to stand by and merely observe a horrendous crime.

Despite observer ideals, it's not appripriate at times when personal engagement best serves humanity, however, ones attitude of disposition need not enter hatred and an underlying wish of 'be well' for a perpertrator can be maintained.

The attitude of kindness is exemplified in 'be well' I think, but life isn't always 'nice' so one just does their best in given circumstances.

It's not easy being subject to degenerate circumstances, because it forces a position stemming from a conflict of wills, and one tends to act in a way that promotes freedom and dignity, but also, sometimes mistakes are made which are hard to live down.
