Holy cow, I would NOT have thought that would happen in that Citibank in the middle of the damn day. Why do you even need to beat an old man, I'm sure the robber could've gotten his cash with relatively minimal force. We may find out that the robber is schizophrenic or was on wet or similar...it just seems like such an ill-thought-out AND pointlessly brutal crime.

Poor man.

He makes me sick. Everyone can just claim crazy and then what....People need to be held accountable for their actions. He wanted $300 and beat this guy till he was brain dead. He need to be locked away in a dark cage.

I wish people that claim to be crazy, etc that their immediate and extended family are held financially accountable. This will make family have everyone in check and stop the unnecessary breeding.

The other day on the train I witnesses a mother non stop verbally abusing her kids. Probably about 10 and 8 years old. She called them names, threaten to beat them, refused the child his coat when he was cold, telling them to shut up, until she finally put her head phones on and fell asleep. She also had a baby in the stroller.

Anyways witnessing that made me think why so many kids turn into naughty teenagers and criminal adults. Those poor children. Mind you they weren't misbehaving.

Seems like the thief/murderer is not the only scum. I realize it can be scary to intervene, but the least people could do is call the cops when something bad happens or otherwise file a report.

Though I have seen people in public intervene and pin criminals down to the ground and hold them there, and once when a deliver guy on his bicycle ran over a woman, the FDNY made him stay there until the paramedics and the police arrived. What happened is the FDNY was coming through and all traffic pulled aside. The ******* delivery guy got on the side walks full speed ahead on his bicycle and ran over a woman. She was hurt, not sure how badly. Obviously she sued whatever company he worked for, and the NYPD took down that information.
I agree with you. However, even though we have actual laws that allow for force to be used by civilians to protect other civilians (see New York Penal Code §35.15 I think), our seriously messed up legal system punishes good samaritans worse than perpetrators an overwhelming majority of the time. We've created a maintained a society that are like the mutes of Kew Gardens.

Some people have no business having kids. Not sure why those people feel like they need to have kids.

We are going to end up like that movie Idiocracy.
