I watched a woman get beat the other night

[PeyoteReligion]

i would have called the cops but that shit doesnt fly around here. it would have been very bad if i had called the cops. and plus even if i did call the cops they cant do anything unless she goes with it.

NO. I dont know where the fuck yu live, but of police respond to a domestic someone has to go to jail. Period.

And if your not willing to do the right thing and call the cops then STFU, cuz that's all you can do. And what do you mean "that shit dose t fly around here"? Fail. Call ANNOYMOUSLY if it's that the case. Also MOVE.

A better neighbor or a better human being? You don't watch a woman holding a baby get beaten and just sit there doing nothing. There's no justification for that.

Moments like these test our mettle.
But then again, who am I to judge? I had an awful dream two nights ago:
I was offered a knife with which to slit my wrist
and
I
couldn't
do
it.
I woke up very disappointed in myself. cn

i was in a car in a parking lot they were in the complex like a good distance away. its not like i didnt want to do anything, but everyone told me to ignore it and mind my own business, but i couldnt stop thinking about it... even though the whole scene lasted for like only a minute its just replaying in my head.

I guess if I was in your hood, I woulda just peeled back his forehead with a tire iron...

gotta be your own person girl take a stand for yourself... i understand you live in a hard neighborhood but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do... what sux is now you gotta live with the knowledge that you could've done something and you didn't... next time leave the car get away from your "friends" and make that call... stay high

 

[RainbowBrite86]

Fuuuuck that. My friends would have had to hold me down and you bet your ass i'd be calling the cops when I got up.

 

[cannabineer]

everyone in the car told me there's nothing we could do but watch it and get over it. people get shot out here for calling the cops

If you see it again, please have a plan. Next time might kill her. He'd get the baby, and what do you think its chances will be of an unmolested childhood? "People get shot for calling the cops" is a fucked ethic and one to resist imo. Please have a plan and landline access. cn

What if you read in the paper next week the baby died from injuries that guy inflicted? What if the mother does? And he would have been in jail if you had called the police? You had the opportunity to save someones life. You let your friends talk you out of that?? You deserve to hold those memories then.

 

[Urca]

i have so much guilt. and wish i could have just said no to my sister, my friends, and done something. bad things happen when you interfere though. They found a body in that apartment complex and last time i was smoking in the parking lot someone was shot execution style across the street

You just said ten minutes later you could hear her crying out...

 

[Urca]

You just said ten minutes later you could hear her crying out...

yeah i did but i couldnt prove it. and my sister said it wasnt her. but i swear i heard her

 

[UncleBuck]

i see no reason for the zimmermemes to have disappeared. don't make george angry, you know what he does when he is angry.

Urca next time ur ever in such a situation think about this:

Am I a sheep or a herder?

Please don't insult this young lady, she's only asking for advice since she knows she did not handle this as well as she could have.
