%0 years of conditioning to “let the authorities handle it”.
Animals can be driven crazy by placing too many in too small a pen.
Homo sapiens is the only animal that voluntarily does this to himself.
Lazarus Long
Prayers for this hero. Shame on those that walked on by.
It’s New York.
So the government funded “taxpayers” saw him and left him to die. ;-)
WTF ! Now I know why I have no desire to visit NYC !
“In the wake of the bloodshed, a man came out of a nearby building and chillingly took a cellphone photo of the victim before leaving.”
In New York, I’m surprised no one tried to see if he had any money to steal while he laid dying.
Socialist mentality: NOTHING TO SEE HERE FOLKS, JUST MOVE ON.
they refuse to give the race of the attacker...lol...we live in an asylum
“Cops said they received four 911 calls at around the time of the attack reporting a woman screaming, but found nothing.”
Union quality work.
How hard is it to call 911? Most cellphones have a one-key method for emergencies now. I’ve called when people were in danger of freezing, when people were acting loco on the bus . . . many times.
Neighbors of New Yorker, Kitty Genovese, back in the 1960s listened a long time to Kitty’spiercing screams from her apartment, but did nothing and did not phone the police.
People afterwards said “Tsk, tsk, what is wrong with people?” and lots of analyses appeared.
This heroic man, himself bereft of home, retained and proved his humanity.
This district went >96% for Obama in 2008.
24 Obama supporters step over a dying man, and couldn’t be bothered to lift a finger to help.
The story is as old as Kitty Genovese. 1964.
It’s a social psychological phenomenon known as the “bystander effect” or “diffusion of responsibility”. It’s a result of liberalism. For example, liberals find it (much) easier to vote to have their neighbors’ money confiscated by government and handed over to “the needy” than it is to actually take responsibility and do something themselves. Somebody is stabbed and dying? The government will take care of that problem.
Too much TV. They are so used to watching crime shows on TV that when they see it in reality, they tune out just like they do when practicing being a couch potato.
Other side is, maybe people did call 911 but 911 never picked up the phone.
A few weeks back someone stole the mirrors off of my friend's truck. His neighbor called 911 to report the theft. No one answered the phone on the 911 end. This happened in Queens NY.
As always, there are two sides to every story.

What the hell is wrong with people?
There is a lot wrong with all the people involved in this news story.
Why is a woman walking alone at 530ish am with cell phone in hand and didn’t help the guy out after he saved her?
I’m talking in general now:
I see too many of you women walking or jogging or doing stupid things alone when you shouldn’t be there especially when its dark. I’m a guy and you wouldn’t find me going into that situation.
I live near the ocean and its a great area out here but I see women jogging after dark into extremely dark area/secluded areas and I always have to shake my head and say to myself what a Freaking Dummy dummy ( i cant cuss here) but you get what i mean.
Some have a fear of being sued others are just like the lawyers that create the fear they don’t give a @$%@.
What the hell kind of creature could just walk on by something like this?!?
If I am ever in need like this I pray there are several Freeper nearby.
They may have thought he was passed-out from booze, or mentally ill and sleeping there, I don’t know.
There are many people on the sidewalks in NY doing all sorts of different things.
If they didn’t see blood I could see how this could happen.
If law-abiding NY’ers were allowed to carry firearms then this scenario might have turned out with a dead perp instead of a dead good Samaritan.
What happened to the woman that was initially accosted? Why didn’t she call police?
Big cities are boils on Earth's butt!
