Met them?

Upfront: docile, seemingly innocent, but very sharp in advocating hidden stuffs Basically, anything that benefits the -'self'.The inability to stand on any side and the deep interests of twisted truths, sure make great them the best script writers :))

would they be the 'cowards'?

truths that may or may not surface: as to why they aren't as bold as they appear to be in taking on any sides,leads us only to think that it's simply because,such attempts is considered - - too much of an obvious 'statement'.

smart move? maybe.. but for some it is an unmerited value of self which disintegrates the morale..and eventually those cowardly value sinks in because of the choice in staying afloat in those Grey areas; leaving them feeling undecided & making sure that they are always safe in the hidden agendas , while leaving the rest around them - - confuse.
