So because I didn't know Hitler, I'm ignorant of what type of person he is?
Whoops, you're logic just took a kick to the nuts.
"Your" english just took one, as well.
There are few examples like the one you used here, btw. There are many people who are wrongfully judged everyday by people who don't have enough understanding to make such judgements.
Take the Joe Paterno issue. There are many, many people i've seen that seem to have it all figured out. They come out saying, "Oh, he knew all along what was going on and that all these kids were being raped and he just sat there and let it happen, and blah blah blah..".
Its completely bogus and irrational, yet people believe it and blast the man's character even though he spent basically he entire life giving back to his community and teaching and mentoring young people, doing all he could to help them grow into strong, wise men and women.
Does any of us know what exactly he knew was going on? Hell no, but that doesn't stop most from acting like they have it all figured out and condemning the man.
Everyone thinks they are a hero when they arn't the ones faced with the difficult decisions to make.
