Call me crazy, but if you save a granny from getting run over by a car, and the next thing you do is pull out a gun and shoot a pregnant woman in the face, I don't think people are just gonna forget the latter act of violence because of your former act of compassion.

Also, they aren't doing it an act of compassion either. They're being paid stupid amounts of money. I'm not going to thank someone for walking a granny across the street if they were paid a few million dollars to do so.
