I so did today. I walked up to the store to grab cigs with kylie today...and when I got to the corner store...it was to see 3 kids all about 7-9 surrounding this poor older guy (who you could tell by sight something was wrong with him I want to say some kind of mental disability) Now I have seen this guy walk about a mile to and from his job never has a nasty look or word to give anyone...and these kids were harassing him. :mad

2 of them had sense enough to walk very quickly away when they saw me coming...the third was not so lucky...he was too busy walking circles around the guy making that hand against chest arm guesture idiots do to mean retard. And I couldnt refrain...I handled myself well for not yelling at him like i would have if it was my kid or niece or nephew...but I still couldnt refrain from chewing him out. I dont even remember exactlly the extent of what i said...something along the lines of you dont treat anyone that way...just because someones different than you doesnt mean youre better than them. That what they were doing was so disrespectful...I said much much more i couldnt help it it made me so angry to see. :mad :mad

Then the kid tried to cover what he was doing by sayiong he was just joking the guy was his friend...bullshit little twit thought id fall for that. I told him that was disrespectful (the hand guesture he had made) the guy said to me...we're not friends he hates me and is mean to me ...the guy look so relieved to see me once i started in on the kid It near broke my heart.

How the hell can even a child be so cruel. It astounds me...If he was my kid he wouldnt have been able to sit for months.

Too bad he wasnt with a parent at the time...i would have told them what went on no matter if he/she got pissed at someone else for scolding their kid. and im damn glad i did it too. maybe next time he'll think twice
 
ANd one more thing that had me in shock...in the time it took me to get up to them...3 or 4 other people had walked right by not saying one damn word...and all you had to do was take a good look at them to know something wasnt right
 
Unfortunately a lot of people just dont want the trouble. I remember when I did forensic science at school and we watched the video of the policewoman, Yvonne Fletcher being shot dead. Some guy just walked past a couple of feet from her and didn't even give a second glance!:eek

Bless you Kat for being there and caring enough to intervene. Hopefully it would have an impact on the youth.

I hope so too. He looked pretty ashamed of what he did after i finished. He didnt even go join his friends who had bolted before. He didnt seem like a bad kid though...so maybe if there is a next time opportunity for him to choose to be mean or kind...he will choose to be kind instead.

Tru dat. Sometimes these kind of interventions could make a difference. Thanks for caring.

Remember about a year or two ago that woman that was stabbed in a convenience store and laid on the floor dying as 4 or 5 people stepped over her and ignored her as she laid there bleeding to death. I was disgusted w/ the human race when I saw that.
 
I have the urge to beat some sense into parents sometimes also. I know it would be a hopeless task, but it would make me feel better.
Like at a pool when kids are screaming at top of lungs. Naturally mom is screaming back twice as loud. I have told them on several occations that their kids don't seem to mind them. That if they (mom) would just SHUT THE HELL UP that it would be twice as peaceful. Usually they don't stay long after that. I feel bad that the kids have to leave also, but just for a minute!!
 
my brother and i used to kind of roam the neighborhood when we were that age...more than one time some stranger would escort my brother home or ask for his phone number to tell my mom that he had pissed in their flower bed, rode his bike over their flowers, was killing small animals in their driveway, or threw rocks at their window. Damn kids. Maybe someday they will learn. And you know what, if an adult caught me doing something like that, whether it was my parents or not, and talked to me like that, I'd be scared shitless and would learn my lesson. So hopefully he will.
