Remember to consider the source (as you already have). Don Krieg was an unexperienced (at least as far as the Grand Line) jackass who knew nothing about the world. Crocodile may have actually been right about his statement, as Luffy was underground when he defeated him. On the other hand,Fishbonen is a Marine doctor, Kizaru is a Marine admiral, and Pell is a long-time member of the Royal Guard who had been on the Grand Line for wuite some time. I see what you are saying, but most of the people here are usually pretty careful about considering the source and the conditions of what is happening.
