They soon got more comfortable with the situation. (Either that or they started to suffer brown outs - that's when the **** backs up so high it blocks your vision)
Oh by the way, they all washed there hands or you would have a blanket party for them after TAPS and the NCOIC didn't give a rats a$$ what was going on because he knew the system was at work.

Social stigma has a very important purpose: It discourages "bad" behavior. Now days, with the advent of political correctness, you are not supposed to ostracize people, no matter their behavior. Here's an example. It used to be that being on welfare had a stigma. Some expensive government programs were designed to remove the stigma, now some people see no need to ever get off of welfare.
