Any excuse

Ammoron demonstrate how the wicked will use any excuse to justify themselves. He claims that the Nephites wronged the Lamanites in the beginning but then, knowing that he is a Nephite by birth he claims his ancestry through Zoram and indicates that Zoram was wronged – despite the fact that Zoram willingly assigned himself with Nephites at the time that the berries supposedly wronged the Lamanites.
