(April 24) -- A homeless man who was stabbed while saving a woman from a knife-wielding attacker lay dying in a pool of his own blood for more than an hour while several New Yorkers walked past without calling for help.

Surveillance video obtained by the New York Post shows that some passers-by paused to gawk at Hugo Alfredo Tale-Yax early Sunday morning and yet kept on walking.

I don't either.  Once when I was a young teen, I opened a door for a woman in NYC, without even thinking.  She thought I was trying to pick her up and caused a minor scene.

Why didn't the woman he saved call somebody?

There will be more of this as the overpopulation grows and we find ourselves further and further away from one another.

Mark my words - it is going to get alot worse. This does not surprise me at all. In this town you could be on fire and they will just walk past you, and let you burn to death. Even some firemen would I suspect, but I will not assert that.

Status: offline 		I had a similar incident in Greenwich, UK, a few years ago. In the middle of summer, in the middle of Greenwich on a Saturday afternoon with lots of people around I found a man in his mid-20's unconscious in a gutter. People were walking past him. I went to check him and roll him on his side so that he could breathe and found that he was lying in a puddle of blood, had been hit in the head (mugged) and must have been lying there for quite a while. I felt like yelling at the people that stopped to stare: he could have been their brother, father, husband or son. I don't understand how people can just walk past in that situation without stopping. Even if he had been drunk or stoned, it would still cost nothing to roll him over, check his airway and get an ambulance.

That's why the gang-rape of a young female happened not too long ago ... with people watching and not a damn person doing anything about it until it was long over and another girl heard someone talking about it. She was the only one who did the right thing and called the police about it.

I'm not going to go to the links provided, the description in the post is enough to sicken me.

Status: offline 		hlen, I hate to get like this, but I am from a totally different background than most. You know you can walk into a crowded bar and blow someone's head off and most likely get away with it. And the more crowded the better because there will be that many more descriptions and recollections of the event. Investigators will be more confused.

That's part of what I meant by the closer we get packed in by overpopulation, the further we grow from one another. Just another point to make a point. Probably noone will get it anyway, but soon I'll br off to bed, so nothing will matter until tomorrow.
