Okay. That's my first good laugh this morning. Thank you! My answer is they lie to us because some of those bystanders would have to be guilty of something.

because if they were guilty then they wouldn't be a bystander. there are bystanders and innocent bystanders. bystanders are just observers, innocent bystanders are observers that get caught in the middle of what ever is going on, not by their choice.

To be guilty the would have to have been participating, therefore the wouldn't be a "bystander", some one who was just there.

Because bystanders are not on trial - suspects are - and even suspects are presumed innocent until convicted by a jury of their peers.

The ones that are guilty are usually not standing by. They run and hide.

Your in luck! Under the Patriot Act, we are all guilty until proven innocent!

by standing is not an offence, like poor old Bill Posters always being threatened with prosecution. He tells me he wasn't there and he did nothing.
