You lefties seem to think that IF these people would have called nine one one all would be well. Guess what that is not the case as she was being raped at the time. A gun would have stopped the whole thing but your too damn stupid to realize it. I guess if your on the wrong end of one of these crimes you'd rather have a phone then a gun??? LOL. Fools one and all.
Zactly. Get a gun. I don't depend on the police to come save me. Hell especially in Mass who have given us Kerry, Kennedy and Fwanks. Bunch of fools. Oh and this rapist too. Hope your a good ankle grabber while your waiting around for the cops to show up fool.
Exactly, so why should any of these good Liberals have stopped to help this woman? If she didn't help herself, it's totally on her, right?
And name calling got old in elementary school, though some apparently didn't get that notice. Home training is nice.
Liberalism caused this. Basically, Liberalism is anti-gun and pro-promiscuity. I bet you a lot of those drivers knew what was going on but probably did not stop because they thought the two parties involved were just "having some rough fun". It is a godless, morally decadent ideology where "anything goes" as long as it is not affecting me. Shocking!

It would have been a start. But, then who says you couldn't dial 9-1-1 and then pull out the gun? Keep in mind, we still don't know if those driving by knew what was happening. If you don't know it is happening, you certainly can't do anything about it - unless you pull over with a gun drawn for every car and/or accident you see at the side of the road .
Actually, a cop stopped by but the guy told him he was rushing her to the hospital to say goodbye to her mom. Since the police are now supposed to be "compassionate", he let the perp go.
The Caption: No One Stopped To Help Woman Attacked On Busy Road | AHN | March 29, 2009, insinuates that hundreds of people saw and understood that a crime was being committed, but drove by uncaring - so as to further insinuate that that we live in a very ugly society. This was done in order to create enough indignancy-emotion to sell a newspaper.
The facts in the actual article do not match the insinuation of the caption.
The story doesn't seem to fall together like the scene in this movie where the event is not, and does not need to be, distorted by a "selling caption":
If anybody actually read the article, it was pointed out that the motorists probably didn't see what was going on. Middleborough is a perfectly respectable Massachusetts town.
Not surprised here. It happened in a Blue/Liberal state. If this would happened in a place like Texas or Oklahoma, the woman would have been saved and hopefully the attacker would have been shot to death. Liberals have no HEART.
That's really funny. Considering that Texas is a state with rampant sexual abuse, and a state which even allows for canned hunting/abuse of animals. Yeah, there's a state full of "heart." What bullcrap.
A few statistics for you:
More than 226,000 children and 104,000 adults are raped every year in Texas. That's considerably more than a quarter million people raped every year in Texas--and twice as many children as adults.
Headline should have read, 'Traffic accident scam results in sexual assult and beating". Should have provided some instant and useful info to help folks avoid similar situations. Follow up story should point out how crimes can be perpetrated even in high traffic areas without public notice.
The lead in would have been appropriate for the assult on Kitty Genovese which rocked the country in a time when it was expected folks should come to the aid of others in need. A situation where people clearly saw what was happeneing but chose not to get involved.
Most of those estimated 300 drivers were talking on their cell phones and barely noticed the cars in front or behind them.
The legal system is designed to seek justice after the crime was committed and has little impact on preventing crime except by chance. It would be legally dangerous for a citizen to get involved even if they saw what may have been an assault. Of course make a 911 phone call if it looks waranted.
