123. I'm not going to jump to a conclusion
Although I don't know anything about the particular case you're referring to, if I believe the private citizen is wrong and the corporation is right, I'll side w/ the corporation.

I'm not going to jump to a conclusion simply because one side presented is a private citizen-- we've been known to be not only wrong before, but consciously wrong.


So in answer to the question posed, "Why do so many liberals/progressives take the side of corporations against a private citizen?", I'll answer-- "Because the corporation isn't always guilty, and the private citizen isn't always innocent."
