Consider a scenario where a thug is assaulting someone on the street and a cop is standing by and does nothing. Whose actions do you think public would consider shameful? Thug is merely fulfilling an action that his designation makes the status quo, everyone expects the thug to be a thug, as such he has the automatic public contempt, the cop on the other hand, will rightfully draw public outrage.
