I don't think I could.

I think that's a deeply unhealthy and unrealistic approach.

No, I would not sit idly by. But yes, I do value my life so much that I don't want to get killed on a suicide mission. That doesn't make me a bad person.

I'm dang certain that I would call the police if I suspected such a situation, but I would not go charging in unless I had reason to think that this would be met with success and/or I could rouse others to come with me and create enough of a disturbance to make a difference.

Would it make the girl feel better if she knew someone was killed or beaten to a pulp or raped alongside her because they came to help her? Maybe, I don't know. I do value my life enough to make the choice to not risk that happening to me. I don't think I'd expect other men or women to go on a suicide mission to save me, should I be in such a horrible situation. I would expect them to call the police, or do anything they could without endangering themselves.

I mean, I understand what you are saying.

But I couldn't stand by, even after calling the police, and do nothing.

Okay. No. I get so tired of hearing that excuse from criminals and their victims. "The evil fire water made him do it."

I don't think asking if, or acknowledging that alcohol was involved is excusing anything - it is merely taking all facts into consideration. Alcohol does effect behavior, particularly in teens, who tend to binge drink when they drink. It's not an excuse for the behavior - but it's still an element of the events.

Ill repeat my questions for the 3rd time. Maybe someone can take a stab at answering them.

It's about they way you express yourself, and your asinine attempts to draw nonexistent parallels.

Keep repeating your question - no one cares, since you proved you were unwilling to answer question posed to you.

"(A) Tactically, what is the best way to handle a situation like this? Lets assume 2 scenarios.

1. You are armed. Legally, can you fire arbitrarily into the crowd? Or should you try and disperse them by firing into the air? These animals are, likewise, probably armed.

1(A) What charges can you face for having a gun, loaded in California, and trying to save the girl?

2. You are unarmed. Fall back, call the police, watch with the rest? Charge in after calling the police and try and pull them off?

What would you guys have done?

Option 3. I turn and smack you on the head and remind you about your wife and family.

I worked at a very busy, rowdy bar in college - lots of fights, especially on the weekends. On my first day the owner told me he could kick anyone's ass with one finger - then he pointed at the phone and said, "just dial 9-1-1" Being as he was an ex-hockey player and had owned the bar for years I took that as great advice. You jump in and you're part of the problem, all bets are off. Cops come along and it's night how do you now they don't end up shooting you?

Anyone else noticing that there is a media blackout going on with this story?

Guess they don't want you looking too close.

"I guess I came here hoping for better than this."

So it's not enough for people to say they would be morally COMPELLED to be active and call the police.

NOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooo --- that's not good enough for you. You want to INCITE (btw, that's what you're here to learn - not to how better discuss, but how to better incite) people into saying --- hell YEAH ! I'll be a fucking RAMBO and DIRTY HARRY all in ONE, man ! Gimme my GUN !
BRING IT ON !!!!!

And anyone who doesn't turn into a rEaving out-of-control gun-blasting MONSTER is somehow deficient.

Deport illegal aliens. Close the border. Problem solved.
