I of course meant that in that it should be blatantly obvious that it doesn't matter what the facts are if other people act as-if the situation is any different to what it in fact is.
Ever heard of people being sent to prison for example, then after they have done time it's found out they shouldn't have been inside? Try telling them that the facts mattered. They obviously did not, not for ages anyway, and I'm sure it is the case for a great many inside right now that they are in for crimes they haven't actually done.
