What I find surprising is that these recent ATM beatings & robberies are happening in broad daylight.

Another recent ATM beating & robbery, broad daylight, high traffic area:

I'm not that surprised. If you're going to target anyone, it would be old people because unlike young folks, they tend to be the ones that still pay for a lot of things in CASH and they usually aren't out late at night.

In the second story I posted above, the victim was only 35 yrs old.

Both these beatings & robberies happened in broad daylight, in high traffic areas of Manhattan:

- Attack #1: 96th St & Broadway

- Attack #2: Houston & Lafayette St

They should beat the scum bag until he’s brain dead. This is awful.

So not only did no one try to help, nobody could be bothered to call the police or an ambulance.

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.

In a city of almost 9 million people, most people are punks.

I could never understand how dozens of people stand by and just let violence happen. You would think power in numbers would mean something

Most of the time these low lives don’t even have guns.

Meanwhile you have James Shaw the Waffle House hero disarming a man by himself
