Is someone going to help?

Why do we turn the other way as a society when we see wrong doing's? Is it fear or apathy?

This past week of have been told a few stories to where I have asked myself, why didn’t someone step in and help these people?

One was of a little boy and girl who are always unattended and when the parents are seen they scream things such as "get your asses in the house". I asked the person that witnessed this and asked “why haven’t you reported them?” He said I didn't think I had enough proof of anything... Two small children wandering blocks from their house and being screamed and cursed at, I say you have enough proof. Call DCFS and have it investigated. Especially since this wasn’t an isolated incident. He lives in this person’s neighborhood and see’s it happening often.

The second story was of couples that was targeted because they are gay and were assaulted and no one helped them. People heard the attack, were outside while it happened and not one person called the police. Doesn’t make me feel very safe!

I’m not saying to become a vigilante or anything but open your eyes and if something seems shady, it probably is…
