The problem isn't "beliefs that are wrong", the problem is that it's Calvinball.

Say something happened, they'll say you don't have proof.

Show proof that it happened, they'll say it isn't a big deal.

Demonstrate a negative consequence, they'll say it's an isolated incident.

Show that it happens a lot, they'll say the victims deserve it.

And so on. Of course I don't have any proof.
