Word has reached us in the Village about a beating that took place in a town near us. Read the story here. Be advised this story involves teens 15, 16, 17 years old and a pipe was involved.
However, the rest of the story is that at least 20 people stood around and watched the fight and did nothing to break it up. One of them caught the entire fight on their cell phone camera. They did provide it to the police, and hour after the event took place. The evening news had a clip of the fight on last night so it appears that the news got hold of it as well.
So what is our responsibility toward our fellow man? If we see something like this do we have a moral obligation to step in stop it? Should there be laws that if you stand by and do nothing you should be penalized somehow in all of this? We need to do something because this is getting worse.
Just my 2 cents!
