Re: Guy beating up his girlfriend on the street
I think you played it well. My brother was in a situation very similiar last year. Walking home at like 1:30, he sees a woman run out of subway and 2 guys kind of tackle her. They are all like mid 30's looking and the woman is screaming. My brother walks towards them and says "hey! whats going on". They tell him nothing is, and that he shouldn't worry about it. The woman is still screaming, and he is unsure what to do, but decides he's not leaving. One of the guys is a beast, looks like he is on steriods (that is his description, and he is a big guy himself) and for some reason decides to charge my brother. As he is running he trips on the ice. The commotion attracts the attention of a bouncer nearby, and then some other kids walking home. Soon they have a whole group and start closing in on the 2 bad guys. They make a break for it, police are called and 30 minutes later they show up with the big guy in the back the police car.
While I think this story is totally cool, my brother would most likely be seriously [censored] up had that guy not tripped on the ice. |

Most of the Time.........
........Minding your own business is the best policy.
If it is a true assault then call the cops. I could tell some stories of women using would be "rescuers" to get back at their boyfriends. But I don't feel like it. |

Re: Guy beating up his girlfriend on the street
I would have called anonymously - the worst part of calling the police would be getting summoned to court as a witness.

Re: Guy beating up his girlfriend on the street
1. Ask any cop and he will tell you that a DV is the riskiest, most potentially explosive call out you can go to; if you dont have to get involved, dont. The female could actually have become an attacker if you intervened.
2. Having a pistol, as somebody mentioned, makes getting involved much dicier. Not only must you have lethal force justification, but even getting into a non-lethal force fight is dangerous because of gun retention issues. |
