oh my god, that's so weird. i don't know who paula zhan is so i wasn't clicking on this thread, but i dunno, something made me click it.
i dont watch the news down here because south florida news is a joke, and i just dont really watch too much TV anyway...but i happened to catch inside edition last night and saw that video and i honestly wanted to puke. i was so furious!
i hope that little ing piece of gets ass raped in jail. don't they have him in custody?
and yea, as far as no one doing anything...that pissed me off even more. what in god's name is wrong with people these days. i mean, get in your car and try to run him over or SOMETHING! i mean, i guess they were scared and seeing some little black thug beating the out of an old man would make them think he probably had a gun, and so they just didn't want to get involved, but it just doesn't seem right to me. you gotta do something and help. i mean, in my eyes you do, but i guess not everyone else's. people digust me. |

jamie: stop for a second and think. when you hear of those people that see someone murdered right in front of their eyes what do they say? they were paralyzed. they couldnt move. they couldnt do anything....this is the EXACT thing that happens with most violent crimes and witnesses!
too many people are quick to jump and say i would do this, i would do that, i would (insert action here)...but in all actuality you wouldnt do anything either the first or even second time you saw something like this or worse happen! |

like gehzumteufel is saying, the normal reaction would be to go into shock. that means i don't need to "know" you, you are still bound to rules of human behavior no matter how special you think you are. |

well i bitched at some lady for talking to her kid like a piece of one time.
obviously that's not the same thing lol but i'm certainly the type to do something about that i dont find to be right.
but yea, u have a point. maybe i would freeze, maybe i wouldn't...but i think my natural reaction would have been to do something.
the first thing that came to my mind when i was watching that video was that i would have told someone near by to get in their car and be ready to run that ****** over after i taunted him to come after me and leave the area where the old man was pinned down. |

| Why would I elude to it? It's irrelevant to the point I was making, which was that people are generally selfish s, and their first reaction is to consider how they will benefit/lose from a situation, instead of simply having the desire to help their fellow man. |

| I've been in a situation where "I" should have stepped in but didn't b/c I didn't care. Anyways, I later find out on the news that the couple went back home and the husband killed his wife. But oh well that is life. |

if you hurt the victim while trying to protect him, he can sue you.
it's better just to phone the police and wait until the guy is about to die (during the attack), cus if you JUST watch the guy and he DOES die, you'll probably get sued by the family for JUST calling the police instead of running over the bad guy with your car. |
Not really, I live in a sensible land :p
There was this one time, actually, when an old man saw a rapist attacking a girl, grabbed a metal bar that was laying somewhere on the ground and hit the rapist so hard the rapist went into a deep coma.
The guy wasn't convicted. |

ang: have you ever been in a situation similar to this? there have been many many studies on this and in general people just dont do because they are emotionally in shock or just dont care. more often than not its the shock. you have to experience it at least once to be able to do something otherwise your paralyzed. |
Well, if youre asking me specifically, a girl got carjacked at 530 in the morning in front of my apartment two weeks ago. She was delivering the paper. The guy pulled a gun on her.
Not necessarily the same kind of situation, obviously. |
