Prioritize stopping harm to another over being embarrassed.

"So you're telling me that sexual assaults get set up all the time. Why aren't we doing more to stop it? So raise your hand give me reasons you think i'm looking the whole room Why you think people don't intervene more quickly in these situations? What are the reasons? Yes  All right, they're scared fear of confrontation. Do we fear confrontation as human beings? Yes or no?  We do now there's two forms of fear that play in here One is fear of reputation that if I intervene I could be mocked or made a joke of Now let's just stop and think about that for a second If I stop a sexual assault, I could be embarrassed. How many agree that almost sounds ridiculous that somebody wouldn't intervene because they could be embarrassed to stop a sexual assault or rape? If you agree with me that's messed up, just say messed up.  Yeah, we gotta call that out. We gotta go, Wait, I'm worried about being embarrassed, but this person could be sexually assaulted. I get my priorities straight."
