Also, it's worth remembering that whether something is the right thing to do or not does not depend on whether you can prevent it from happening or from being carried out by someone else (you can note similar vile sentiments when people say things like "if I don't do it, someone else will" ). In other words, you should refuse to do something you know is wrong because it's wrong, end of story. The fact that someone willing can or will take your place is irrelevant. Concerns over prevention are distinct from concerns over where you should act in some manner. Where prevention is concerned, kareemsabri's suggestion is a viable option.
