Exactly how do you think Amon was able to get his following? Until the end of episode six, we saw exactly how corrupt Republic City had become. Bending triads ran the streets and if you think that Bei Fong didn't know who LBZ and the other mob heads where and what they were doing, then you're the one working off a fallacy TGA.

The truth was repeated over and over and over again before now: non-benders had it rough in Republic City. No one stepped in to ease their pain because no one cared: especially those at the top like Lin Bei Fong and the Council. As long as everything looked fine from far away, they were happy to let the train of abuses continue. One selfless act doesn't erase the years Bei Fong could've acted and didn't. Choosing not to act in the face of evil only enables it which is why Amon has the support he does now. She got what she deserved...just like the rest of them will.
