It's actually really sad that you think a man needs to be some sort of superhero to step in and stop an old man from raping a ten year old boy.
The pussification of this nation runs deep.

Should all men who are pussies be expunged from the face of the earth? Hitler felt so....he wanted master race.
Or should we try to live as a society with people of differing capabilities?
Yup, McQueary couldn't do what we are certain that you should do...maybe we shopuld lock him up with Sanduisky so that folks like you won't be bothered be lesser humans.
No kidding.
I have to tell you, I'm a bit surprised by the vigorous defense of a moral coward here on Free Republic. They seem to think that doing the expedient thing is more appropriate than doing the right thing.
But I'm going to try to find some common ground here. Most here on this thread believe that McQueary (regardless of what he did later), should have IMMEDIATELY put a stop to the rape of a 10-year-old when he first witnessed it (or at least within a minute or two of regaining his senses after the shock of seeing such a thing). Do you notice what I just did here? I threw you a bone: I agree that McQueary would be SHOCKED to see such a thing. I would be. I might even back off and step out of the room and close the door behind me. But after 30 seconds of regaining my composure, I can GUARANTEE all you doubters out there that I would return into the room and put an immediate end to this savage attack -- in any way possible.
Is it possible that you -- NRG1973, Hellbender, TomB, and Two-Sheds -- can understand that? And I'm not exactly young (I, coincidentally, have a 10-year-old grandson).
Now my question to you four: Do you think you would do the same? I grant you, it would SHOCK us all, but could you leave the room, gather your wits about you, and return again within a minute to put an end to this savagery?
Be honest. If you wouldn't return to the room, say so. But if you wouldn't, I courteously here and now ask why you wouldn't.
The ball's in your court: NRG1973, hellbender, TomB, Two_sheds.
