Would You Save a Stranger?

I'm watching "Would You Save a Stranger" on channel 4 atm. Quite a good program actually, plus shows the fucked up state of this country. It does raise an interesting question though, Would any of you actually help a stranger in need? especially in this day and age where you'd most likely end up being stabbed or worse.

I have helped strangers in the past but these days it's too fucking dangerous to intervene unless you have backup, A reason why i wanna learn kung fu, need skills these days to defend yourself and others.

Anyone watching this program?

i will if asked for help and if i have help to offer - quite happily, and if somebody turns around and stabs me for it thats grand, i dont want to live in a world where people stab you for helping - thats my theory!

though help does come first to those i love!

Hmmm, hard to say on this one - I guess you'd have to be there. If the beating appeared to be something personal then I's stay way clear, the fella getting a kicking might deserve it.

That said, if I say someone in an unfair situation I'd like to think I'd tear my shirt off to reveal my Superman vest and help solve the situation with some diplomacy speaking (was that word spelt right? Was it even a word??)

I very much doubt it. When people can get stabbed and killed on buses for asking someone to stop throwing chips it makes you think twice. I'd be more likely to call the police if I thought someone really needed help, realistically that is how I'm most able to assist them.

You know what, i would. I'm going to watch that programme on 4OD later.
I have saved strangers lives before and it's an amazing thing to do, fuck the consequences, i'm not going to stand by and watch someone die knowing full well i can attempt to do something.

I will if I can, no question and always will.

However I haven't been able to not notice the lack of help from others when others or myself are in trouble.
I've been in plenty of fights in school and out where a gang of kiddies would start on me and then proceed to beat the shite out of me with my 'mates' or random people who just happened to be there would be just gawping on and keeping out of the way.
Some people are cowards and just don't want to get hurt and others are literally rooted to the ground and can't move (which I do sometimes).

Anyone ever encountered the type that shouts to everyone else to help the person they don't know? haha, cheeky sods.
