Last night, while waiting for other passengers we saw 3 boys punching one guy and a girl trying to stop them. The old ladies are shouting at them, telling them to stop. I saw guys around but no one dared to stop them. They just watched.. when one boy tried to throw a stone to the other, an old lady came to the rescue - shielding and protecting the boy. Still, no one [especially the guys] dared to help. Then the guy throw the stone and it hit the girl.. they ran off, and that's the only time the guys run towards the girl and get her to the hospital.
I've seen a lot of incidents like this, why is it that most guys don't want to get involved when they see a fight?

Its because of self protection. There is some thing in our mind which tries to do this. This happens mostly when you dont know the real situation and you dont try to interfere.I would say if in case we cant help , atleast we should inform police near by or call some one who can help.thats humanity.
Apart from that , if this kind os incident is happenig a lot inyour area then its a high time people in your area shold speak to local counsellor or police coms.
