While I find your perspective and suggestions are valuable, I think we need to retire this idiom (which I've used myself without much thought):

> Now I am not saying he should not have done what he did

We need to stand up and say, he should speak out, he should have spoken out, seeing injustice and oppression.

I do see how I could have worded my general approval of his goals in a better manner.

As I said, I've used that idiom myself many times. I'm just trying to be more careful.
