God gave the "wicked people" Noah as an example to follow, that is how God shown His mercy to them through Noah and his arc, but instead they ignored what Noah was doing, for some reason they couldn't understand the writing on the wall, that a giant arc = a giant flood, so they mocked and jeered Noah, instead of helping his arc or building their own.
It's no different then as it is now, God gave us the Marine who died as an example a person who does his duty; and what happpens? Instead of going in and paying him respect like they should, because that marine deserves respect for giving his life, they stand outside and protest.
