Public too hard on umpires and refs?

With all the instant replays and camera angles they have now seems almost unfair to bash these guys when they blow a call. Sometimes it's hard to tell even with super slow-mo replay. I think these guys get it right 99% of the time and get zero credit when they do.

I think as you get older you realize this more and more, when it gets to the point where these guys get death threats over a blown call it's become too much.
