The same reason why people shoplift, litter, are rude, go through the 10 items or less line with 50 items, etc. They know that no will have the nerve to speak up. Your silence is the same as approval to them and is a form of cowardice. One person objecting may not make a difference. Neither may ten people. But if a large majority had the courage to standup to the wrogdoers, it just might make a difference. Say nothing and it will only get worse.
