18 people is a large demographic of people in a small time frame Kyle. I think that it speaks highly of their culture.When i traveled I was always polite and respectful to everyone I came in contact with. I was just pointing out that in our country and in our culture that this particular incident would not have happened, it isn't the Australian way. I wouldn't check their skin color before I decide to call for help. Blatantly putting on blinders to the fact a BABY was left to bleed in the street after being hit by TWO cars is the shameful part of it all. 18 people.
Is it? Large by what standards? I'm not saying culture doesn't play a role in it, but don't be fooled into thinking these type of things are exclusive to China, or not possible in Australia for that matter. They happen around the world, there is no known cultural barriers that you speak of. as 667 mentioned, Kitty Genovese is a classic example, where the murderer stabbed her several times only to come back and seen coming back by witnesses, then stabbed her several more times and raped her as she bled to death. But that's old school, lets keep it recent. Think Ilan Halimi from France who was kidnapped and tortured for weeks by a couple dozen people. they beat him, wrapped his head in duct tape, burned him with lighters, broke small joints, cut him, and burned him alive. The catchy part, neighbors all around heard and came to spectate.18 people walk passed yae yae surprises you? how about weeks of people coming and finding interest, let alone no compassion, in watching a person go through that. Think Sergio Agruiar beating his son to death in front of a crowd who does nothing but watch. Or Hugo Alfredo stabbed and left for dead on a sidewalk for well over an hour bleeding before help arrived, mind you this was in the very populated city of New York. Oh and apparently he was only coming to the help a woman who was being attacked.
Cases without violence against another? Think Simone Back the lady from europe who posted on facebook that she was going to commit suicide and none of her "friends" called 9/11 or went to her house. or heres another interesting one: http://wn.com/Woman_Dies_on_Kings_County_Hospital_Floor
Worse off, you might find that people can go from being inconsiderate spectators to participants of cruelty, if you're thinking small think Richmond high in cali where several gang raped and beat a 15 yo girl and the by standards began to take pictures of it. On a large scale? Think the holocaust, where thousands of soldiers claimed no responsibility as they were just taking order. There are hundreds of similar large scale examples like this with many documented cases, I wonder if it has anything to with the "Bystander effect" in that the larger the crowd the more disassociated it becomes, I don't know. But As an American it's easy to recall numerous examples by KKK, or the native American genocide, slavery and so on., even though they don't seem to teach such perspective in k-12.

Yeah it is naive, but its alright, cuz it is pretty common. I think just about everyone is surprised when they first start to become aware of such things. I know I was

Didn't find it that bad considering all the flack that I'd heard beforehand, but I was only there for a few weeks so I guess I can take your account as ground truth! _________________ <[TD]ViRuZ> You have balls...I like balls

Something like this happened in my city.
An enraged boyfriend stabbed his ex-girlfriend multiple times outside of a tanning salon one morning on a main street - hundreds of cars passed by and did nothing. People working across the street at a car dealership witnessed it and did nothing.
I think in this case the woman would have died anyway but it's kind of scary knowing that humans in general do not have the courage to stand up against acts of evil.
The only thing to say really, is if you ever witness something like this, be a fucking hero, even in Genocide's link - I'd rather be THAT guy than one of those faggots taking a cell phone shot of a bleeding corpse on a sidewalk. If you don't live your life with integrity you're a piece of shit.

Tip for dealing with fear:
Breath very deeply and focus on your own breath. No matter what's happening continue to focus on breathing - You will be surprised at how this will allow you to think clearly in very emotional situations.

tbh if one of you were ran over and I was near by, I'd probably take pics with my phone. Well there are a few of you I would definitely help. _________________ [quote="turtleman@can"]shotgun doesnt hack, i trained him in the arts of homosexuality[/quote]

Kind of annoyed by biased media. Seems like there's a tilt on either end to prove points - It'd be nice if they met somewhere in the middle so people actually knew what the fuck was going on.

well the little girl is with her mom who is holding onto her pretty tightly...what could she have possibly been doing to warrant pepper spray...even if she was acting like a "demon child" (lol)...just going "man fuck...I really don't have the energy for this today" *sprays little girl's face* is stupid and not right....how can u possibly need pepper spray to subdue someone 1/5 of ur size lol...

It's a child, I don't agree under any circumstances pepper spraying a child. _________________ "i don't have pet peeves, i have major psychotic fucking hatreds"

tony baloney, the guy who pepper sprayed the women at OWS, lost his vacation days
if a cop murders someone, sometimes they get reassigned to a desk job. _________________ i zero bagged your mother

when i was a kid working at a restaurant, one time i called a cop a "cop" and he gave me a lecture about respect and the meaning of the word "cop" (which doesn't mean anything bad btw, so who knows what this guy's deal was, oh i know, he was a COP!!!).. _________________ i zero bagged your mother
