I want to clarify: I was not abdicating someone should have pulled a firearm or used deadly force. There is nothing saying anyone had one that was present. My point was no one did anything. It may be that this happened so fast no one knew what was really happening. There have been several video's in recent time where multiple people have not only stood by and watched an actual crime committed where they took no action to stop it. I do not expect people to get involved personally but they didn't bother to yell, call the police or anything else constructive besides taking out their cell phone and filming it. Not for evidence but to put it on YouTube. Just sad.
