What do you make of an unprincipled coward who refuses to make a stand -- or even take a position -- in virtually every aspect of his sad existence? This is a "man" who allows others to walk all over him, happily taking orders and otherwise bowing and scraping his way through life. This same person is a confirmed fence-sitter, always remaining out of any debates or disagreements no matter what might be at stake.
Depending on what you make of our subject, consider this bizarre turn of events. This same craven individual recently saw fit to hop off his "safe and secure" fence only to attack one who had been his friend. It was the quintessential stab in the back, both unexpected and unprovoked. Now, what would be this worm's motivation in choosing to stab a trusted friend in the back? Was it because he felt comparatively safe in attacking an unwary friend rather than confronting a dangerous foe? What is the psychology behind such a vile act? Feelings of inadequacy? Passive-Aggressive?
