When faced with the choice of trusting a stranger, you turned it down, then made the decision about the lack of trust in the world?

Trust in strangers has never been easy in the US. If something is to change, it has to start individually.

This falls into the domain of the ethics of care. Sure change needs to start some place, but it doesn't need to be done recklessly. Nobody does anybody any favours by putting themselves in dangerous situations. To care for other people, to give them the attention they need you need to prepare yourself for it first.
