Yet if you were to question them about unrighteous matters than happened in Ontario, Ca they would likely say "I don't know. I don't know anything about what happened in that locality."

I think it's safe to say that letters are signed and decisions are made as a result of external pressure and not out of necessity. Take the quarantine letter from 1990 for instance. How many of the signators of that letter even knew much about what happened besides what WL told them? It's a serious matter, signing something without knowing or understanding what is being signed.
