Welcome to 2022 America...and I'm not suggesting ANYTHING political by that.I want to throw up.
Erm OK. But this video is from China.Welcome to 2022 America...and I'm not suggesting ANYTHING political by that.
Em, OK, my mistake. But, I'm guessing that if it were presented as occurring, just as an example, on 5th Avenue in NYC not many people would be incredulous. If you think that scenario couldn't happen here, you must believe in the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy. But, you're correct on this one - my error.Erm OK.

I am Spartacus.Not only do I believe in them, I've met them.
Probably here...Not only do I believe in them, I've met them.
You're certainly welcome to your opinion and I agree that in far more cases than otherwise, charitable and well-intentioned assistance would be rendered. But, I believe you're mistaken if you think it couldn't happen here. And, I offer that opinion as someone who believes in the intrinsic humanity of most people, both here and elsewhere. But, I've a!so seen enough callousness, selfishness and lack of concern for others recently to cause me to not discount the possibility that anything is possible, both here and elsewhere. Just my take.No. You are wrong. Are there a few jackholes that might not help that person, yes. But in THIS country there is no way Americans would let that person lie in the street to be run over a second time. Just the opposite would happen, in fact. People would have stopped traffic to help at the onset.
100% agree The good news in America we don’t ask what political affiliation they belong to while they’re laying in the street dying. Our natural American human instinct is to help our fellow citizens in the time of need.No. You are wrong. Are there a few jackholes that might not help that person, yes.

Which has the very social score that USA INC. is going to implement soon.Erm OK. But this video is from China.
There are areas that wouldn't help, or rather, would even mug the injured. Or worse. But, most people would help out.100% agree The good news in America we don’t ask what political affiliation they belong to while they’re laying in the street dying.

Unfortunately I agree to some extent. I drive through some during the day, and I’m grateful that I lived through it…There are areas that wouldn't help, or rather, would even mug the injured. Or worse. But, most people would help out.
