She's way better than MARTA's Souljah Girl.

I never understand why Americans never seem inclined to intervene and defuse these public conflicts. Is everyone afraid of being sued? Is everyone afraid everyone else has a gun? Is every citizen a poetv member? All of the above?

Most of us are just complete douchebags.

Say, do you live under the tyranny of socialism? We'd be happy to come by and start bombing, just give the signal, and we'll intervene and "liberate" you. What could possibly go wrong?

As an American who uses the subway on a regular basis I can tell you the attitude runs along the line of "I'm not making this my problem" and "Well, he must have done something wrong"

Most fights do get broken up pretty much instantly, but nobody bothers to tape or upload them to the internet.

Also long time train commuter. Putting on your cape and leaping into these situations tends to either add fuel to the fire or worse (for you) deflects the oncoming shit storm towards your face. At least we live in a future where people will record your assault for you!

So...all of the above +comments.

What do you mean "is every citizen a poetv member?" If that were true everybody would just sit back, laugh, and make smart ass remarks.

Engaging crazy people usually doesn't work out. They don't actually listen and respond to what you say, so all you could really do is get into a yelling match or physically restrain her, and that doesn't really improve the situation.

Also, I didn't feel like he was any actual danger.

For what it's worth, her dauwg was a large pitbull, which is reason enough to think twice before intervening. Apparently she's been arrested for this multiple times and ws bragging about it on Twitter and Facebook after it happened. She also posted her own cell phone number, but I'm not going to put that here.

I intervened in a fight once when I was 18. I was in a parking lot at night and a woman was screaming bloody murder. I ran up and saw a scraggly young woman clawing, kicking, and trying desperately to pull a man out of the driver's seat of a car. The woman saw me and yelled "He's stealing my car!" so I grabbed the guy and ripped him out and sort of flung him away from it. Immediately, the woman got inside the car, started it up with the keys that were already in the ignition, and hauled ass out of there.

As it turned out, the car actually did belong to the man I tore out of it, and the woman was the one who was actually stealing the car. It was pretty awkward. I like to think that she actually did own a car of the same make and model, or very similar, and was just so high on PCP or something that she didn't realize it wasn't hers.

Anyway, I don't know about other Americans, but that was the last time I jumped into the middle of a fray.

Most people are probably just pussies.


Adham Nu'man - 2012-03-15

I don't know, I've seen similar situations where a bunch of people spontaneously come together and go "chill the fuck out" and generally the loon, being outnumbered, lamely insults everyone and then pisses off.
Of course, if the loon is a 250 lbs steroid nut with tattoos all over the face I would understand it if nobody intervened. But a single fat, short, chubby hot-topic punk being fucking loud, rude and obnoxious while the rest of the passengers on the train just kind of pretend she is not there (except for the one "WOO THIS IS AWESOME YOUTBEZ FOOTAGE RIGHT HERE" guy) seems like we're getting a tad desensitized.


Adham Nu'man - 2012-03-15

Then again, the American legal system is quicker and more efficient than most of the countries I've been in, thus people are much more inclined to use it, so I can see that the legal repercussions of a restraining scenarios could very well work out negatively against an individual that tries to "help out".

It's also rare in this culture to have someone start a physical altercation with complete strangers unless they have some sort of advantage. If you want to Steven Seagal it throughout America's metropolises saving every person dealing with shitty people on public transportation, you can be my guest. Just a pro tip: people starting shit with complete strangers are usually A) crazy B)Drunk/High or C) armed/have back up/have some advantage you don't know about/bluffing

I'm not a bouncer.

Apparently a short kitchen knife was enough to scare 5 adult male neighbors away from trying to help me fight off my boyfriend, who was delirious on Ambien. They kind of just stood there like spineless sacks of shit and watched me elbow him in the face until he rolled off of me.

So yes, most people are complete pussies.
