Re: Help, he’s being mugged ..
It amazes me as to why people dont feel the necessity to help each other out in difficult times? If we see someone getting hurt , how can we so easily tolerate it and not care about it …
how difficult is it for two passers by to get together and overpower an assailant? If there are weapons like guns involved I understand this concern to jump in … but even then I know I wouldnt be able to live guilt free ever , if i saw someone shooting/stabbing a man and I just went past ..
There was a news clip on BBC some time back , a man took his dog for a walk , they didnt realize they stepped on a frozen lake .. the dog fell into the water and the owner panicked , he jumped right after the dog and brought it out safely ..
Later many people thought he did a brave thing, while many others continue to diss him that he did a stupid thing .. his comment : life is valuable, I couldnt see life slip away , be it a dog or a human being .. if I didnt go after it and save it and it had died , I would have died of guilt and cowardice too ..
Perhaps we humans are becoming a bit too materialistic to even consider helping each other ..
