A Side of Perspective
This funny incident does provide us some insights into how quick we can be to make assumptions and establish opinions with little information.

It’s when we take our assumptions, withhold a quick decision and test those assumptions against more information or contrary information that we make better decisions. How often do we take a position on a matter that really if we simply looked at the other side of the coin, it’s not really a big deal.
