It has always surprised me that there haven't been more people within the LC who have reacted to the various abuses that take place. My experience has been that the abuses aren't too hard to find. Everyone has their reasons for keeping quiet, and one thing is for certain, LC leaders operate on the assumption that everyone is going to remain silent. When some doesn't, it's a big deal.

The fact of the matter is, as long as there are abusive situations, there will be those who feel pushed to become "negative" towards the LC. As much as leaders would like to label negativity as an "attack of the enemy", it's simply a reaction to situations that should have been resolved. A case and point is what happened with Samuel Liu. Had other leaders stood up to him and removed him from a leadership role, this situation would probably have never been brought up on the internet. It was a problem created by inaction, and allowing abuses to continue in spite of all logic and reason.
