Good Samaritan who stopped an attack talks about pride, morality and civic responsibility:

"I'm tired of seeing that going on in our city and like I said, you know, we can talk about it or we can do something about it."

"Back in the day... there was a thing called morality, and I think that needs to return"

Too many evil insane violent types loose and dangerous.

The perp will be set loose among us again. Probably was within hours. That is how the ‘Soros’ system functions.

Criminals should go to jail, but we should also try to prevent crimes before they happen.

Maybe if the person was raised better or had better schooling or had more help with any mental problems, then he would not have committed the crime.

How should we react when crime is taking place

One thing that disturbs me about me when crime is happening is how people respond.

The number of people who record the crime on their phones but nothing else. For some it becomes entertainment, but nothing done to end the crime, or even to contact the police. We the public could do a lot more. We need to make it far more dangerous to commit a crime in public.

Each of us have something we can do, though it may vary according to what is possible.

I am very limited, hobbling along with my walker. One thing I am very good at is falling. If a criminal was running by me, I might be able to fall tripping the person, tough I admit it would be scary. But certainly I can report the crime on the phone, and sometimes for smaller crimes I C\can speak up, as I did when someone was harassing a bus driver, stating the fact that our lives as passengers depended on the driver not being distracted.

Obviously, it depends on what each of us is capable of. Think what you can do

I agrees, Ken.

Foundations are key when it comes to having a good structure. The traditional role of a good family is central to civilized society.
An argument is made now that the single most cause of crime in big cities is a result of fatherless children.

It’s human nature to want to belong, and when kids don’t have real family, community acceptance, church family, they will create their own group. Hence the ever growing number of gangs worldwide.

There is a best way to live. People disagree, but the facts prove it.

Methheads seem to be the violent ones

People who drink too much wiskey are violent in my opinion also. Pot heads dont seem violent. I feel people who live in poverty do what ever they have to to survive. It is a tuff world out there survival of the fittest
