Well, what are you saying then because it seems either a tangent or something that is abhorrent and in profoundly bad taste.

A just society should protect the weak and powerless from exploitation and abuse.  If a society fails in certain aspects of this, then it shouldn't mean you throw away the protections.

Yeah, I was certain that you were using it in that sense but I am failing to see its relevance in the thread. 

You really should have a moral and legal responsibility to report witnessed abuse whether it be a child, woman or man.

Omerta for you then. 

I tend to disagree but know where you are coming from. It is also not as cut and dry of an issue as it appears from my gut instinct given things like attorney-client, doctor-patient, confessional etc.
