title: Ruby Rails "if" with condition of "false" actually executes?
body: <p>I really don't know what I am not seeing here, because it looks to me that "if false" is acting like "if true".  To make it clear, I actually took screenshots of my RubyMine 6.0.3 screens.  This one is probably simple, but it surely looks crazy to me...  </p>
  
  <p>The code is in DevicesController#update.  It has a breakpoint that occurs within an "if false" statement that shouldn't be executing.  See in this shot that I am on line 48 within the if:

  <p>The variable dump at this time follows, that shows that params[:device][:chg_pwd], the if condition, is false.<br>

  <p>So, why am I within this if statement when its condition is false?</p>
