Guy beating up his girlfriend on the street
About an hour ago (130 AM) I went outside to get some air and smoke a cigarette. There was a dude down the block with his girlfriend and they were arguing and yelling.
Then the dude yells "bitch, bite your tounge" and she says "f-ck you" and he grabs her by the arm and slams her into the metal gate of the hardware store they're standing in front of. I am the only other person on the street, and I consider getting involved. The guy was obviously very irate and could have been intoxicated. I really wanted to go help her, but with the way things are today the guy could have had a weapon and there is always the possibility he has friends in car or neerby somewhere. So, I go around the corner and call 911. the cops come literally 30 seconds later (I guess there was a car heading in our direction at the time) and the cops broke up the fight. I didn't stick around to see if the guy got arrested or anything. What do you think, should I have tried to intervene? The guy was slapping her and pushing her, but nothing that she was in danger of being killed, but if I called the police and while waiting for them the situation really got life-threatening for the girl, then should I have stepped in? |

You did fine.
I would consider yelling something at him to get him to stop, but I wouldn't physically mess with someone crazy enough to attack his girlfriend on the street. He could easily have a weapon and want to use it on you for trying to stop him. |

It's to the thread, not you. (I think; it was a different post the first time I checked)

In Canada this is so easy. You get involved. In most of the US [censored] no. [/ QUOTE ] |

Calling the cops was the correct response. You responded well.
