Safety in numbers 

A bunch of people ganging up on the little guy (since little guy isn't always in a literal sense, little can also mean unpopular, the little guy is the underdog regardless of actual physical size).

The one standing alone isn't hiding from anyone else, no matter what somebody said he/she did. It's safety in numbers that protect the true suspicious folks, and allow them to operate.

Safety in numbers 

There is safety in numbers because numbers protect people, they allow people to hide. The one standing alone isn't protected by anyone else.

A lot of people spend their entire life protected by numbers, because they know there is safety in numbers. They can hide in plain sight or out of sight when they have numbers on their side, it's a defense mechanism.
