Default Re: Real life moral dilemna

Its hard to see a moral dilemma here. Most would agree that the right thing to do is to try to help her and the only sensible way to do this is to call the authorities.

More fool them. I would say that standing up to this kind of stupidity is a moral act in itself but I know I'm wierd.

Even so the fact you fear doing the right thing just makes it a question of how couragous you are, and doesn't stop it from being the right thing to do.
