Last night we were watching a show on tv, "What Would You Do?" One of the men on the show when asked
why he had helped a perfect stranger, "because it was the right thing to do".
It seems so easy doesn't it? We learned a very hard lesson because we "did the right thing". Not everyone
finds it as easy to step up. We're still shocked that parents will allow their young children to be
filmed all the time for no apparent reason. What is being done with those films? These same
children have spent a good part of their lives with this, are they immune to the craziness? No, they aren't.
We're saddened that people seem able to go inside their homes, shut the windows and doors, close the curtains
and turn up their tv's or radios to try and drown out what goes on here. I think that's called the "ostrich syndrome".
Is that really any way to live? We live in such a beautiful place that we should be able to enjoy, but can't because
whenever there is a gathering, it starts.
Years ago, a group was told that "there was strength in numbers and the Moysas should not have to do this alone".
We think that people were frightened by what was happening to us...having to defend ourselves against their false claims.
What they didn't realize is that if we all worked together, it would have been over. That would have been
easier, knowing that we weren't alone, even though we were being targeted.
It's still not over. There are two jury trials coming up in the next couple of months. One of these is from
the arrest over three years ago. They exhausted every way to delay it, going as far as taking us to the
United States Supreme Court, but now it's actually going to happen.
Will we be happy? Hard to say. This has taken a huge toll on both of us not only financially, but physically and
emotionally. It's given us insight into how people think and react...easy to grumble, but must be harder to act.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, what if...? Would we do it again this way, probably not! Would we have done
something? Probably.
Did we "Do The Right Thing"?
