Sometimes you learn the most about human nature when you watch children. The other day i saw 2 kids playing and the stronger one grabbed a toy from his younger sibblings by force and he was told not to do so by the adults.

As he realized his mistake, i can see the conflict that played out in his mind: he grabbed hold onto the toy as he wanted it for himself, yet his guilt betrayed him as it showed in his face and behavior.

In the case here on tmo, i saw a big (and rather distasteful) defensive move when someone called foul. I didn't think it was necessary if said person was confident that he truly deserved it by merit.
