So true, people act tough untill the actual situation occurs. Then they run. I'd put money that almost all of you would run if it really happened. In a dark alley at night, and a huge guy is beating up some guy with a weapon. And you guys are saying that you would attempt to seriously overpower or hurt him.
Damn right. I highly doubt people would wanna attempt to, and those who did, I doubt they'd be successful in taking the guy down.
It depends on many factors, but...overall, I'd probably stand still for a while, debating it in my head...
It's just one of those things where if I don't do it, I'll regret it forever, if I -do- try, I might regret it for eternity (death ;P)
But after a while, and me probably realizing I don't care about dying while trying to help somebody, I'd probably attempt it and throw myself off balance with my first punch and watch him stab me.
Thing is, perhaps its justifiable, you don't know anything about the people.
Perhaps guy A is beating the crap out of guy B for messing up his job, stealing his wife, killing his mom, and pedo-raping his daughter.
You never know.
Overall, I'd probably try to and die, or if the guy is like...obviously gonna kick my ass, I might see if I could be like "Hey fool, you're not supposed to leave a witness!" and then start sprinting to the police station. ;P
