How far are you willing to go to stop an abuse?

[dearjohn]

If you see a couple arguing, or fighting, would you try to make peace?

A lot of people these days, mostly men, said "NO". Well, some people do not understand the, NO responses. Are these the kind of situations that cause people to mind their own business?

A Good Samaritan who tried to stop a domestic assault was stabbed twice in the abdomen outside Yorkdale Shopping Centre on Friday night.

Toronto police say the victim, who is in his 20s, saw a man and her partner arguing outside one of the entrances of the North York mall at about 6:30 p.m.

When the onlooker intervened, the woman turned around and stabbed him twice, police said.

The victim was taken to Sunnybrook hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and was later released.

Police said the arguing couple had been drinking at the time of the dispute.

Both the woman and her boyfriend were taken into custody and are facing charges.

David once saw a man beating on his woman. David ran across the road to haul the guy off her. The guy threw a punch. David retaliated. David was just out of the army so guy was soon seeing stars.

The woman jumped on David's back and started clawing his face. He threw her off.

Next thing you know, cops showed up and they (the couple) tried to have David arrested for assault.

my cousin caught a bullet in his head and left behind twin boys because he decided to help someone who was being beaten up outside a club. It was the person he was trying to help that blew his head off.

my cousin's help was an emabarrassment.

Before mi read this I was about to tell a similar tory. Look yah man.. Unless di woman knock out unconcious unu bettah mind unu buisness. People a sew people fi just a look now a days.

Mi fren go to the aid of a woman who boyfriend or husband must have ran his car into hers after a chase or what evah.. He went over to see [censored] because he was trying to get to her in the car. When Mi fren pull ovah and ask what his issue was, he looked like he had good sense because mi fren is a yoke Mofoo and he don't want none a dat. When he ask her if she was alright she look pon him a way. When he ask her if it was a boyfrend, stranger or husband who ran into her car, she said no it was you.
