I'd hazard a guess what you're getting at is that they're picturing what they themselves would do but for the restraints of moral absolutes. But this goes wrong in two ways. First, it ignores the fact that people also observe what others do. Second, by applying the perjorative label "scum" you're still assuming an overarching morality.
