Woman stabbed in Grand Central Station in New York City, bystanders do nothing.

[Carl in Michigan]

1. Self-defense under the Law, I should walk, instead of getting stabbed, robbed or killed.
2. Derek Chauvin was stabbed in prison, didn't say he died.

Derek Chauvin - Wikipedia

Derek Chauvin is a political prisoner. He is a sacrificial white cop in prison to satisfy the mob

What can one conclude as we see more and more people doing nothing as their fellow citizens are stabbed, set on fire, robbed, etc?

New York is getting exactly what they voted for.

Criminals running amuck and no ability for law abiding citizens to defend themselves and no help from others.

Congrats NYC, you got what you voted for. Enjoy your perfect city.

No surprise. Reasons? Just read something down below.

In New York, the Good Samaritan Law protects individuals who assist others in emergencies from legal repercussions, provided their actions are reasonable and in good faith[1][3]. This law encourages people to help without fear of being sued or arrested for unintended harm. However, if someone intervenes in a situation like an assault or robbery and uses excessive force or acts recklessly, they could face criminal charges[2][6]. Thus, while helping others is generally protected, the nature of the intervention matters significantly.

New York's Good Samaritan Law offers several specific protections:

• Civil Liability Protection: Individuals providing emergency assistance are shielded from civil lawsuits, provided their actions are voluntary and not grossly negligent[1][3][4].
• Drug Overdose Immunity: It protects those who report drug overdoses from arrest for possession or use of illegal substances, encouraging timely medical intervention[2][1].
• Emergency Assistance: The law covers actions taken outside medical facilities, such as administering CPR or using an AED[1][3].
• No Duty to Act: There is no legal obligation to assist, but those who do act in good faith are protected[4].

These protections aim to encourage life-saving actions without fear of legal repercussions.

Even if you have a concealed permit, you cannot carry on public transportation in NYC.

Then they are useless.

 

[Jarlaxle]

Other than a rare individual like Penny, New Yorkers are pathetic cowards.

No. I wouldn't get involved either...but I am not afraid to. Rather I have made a conscious, reasoned decision that I am unwilling to help. A rational cost-benefit analysis shows it to be a high-risk, no-reward action. So...nope! Walk away, head down and pick up the pace.

Leave it to commie States to make it easier for criminals to operate with impunity, and harder for the average law abiding citizen to defend themselves.

[scruffy]

One cannot legally carry a concealed weapon in these blue state shit holes.

No one pays attention to those idiotic gun laws.

Not even me.

NYers are inherently apathetic in the 1st place to a degree.

 

[ColonelAngus]

The woman who was set on fire should have called 911 and patiently waited for first responders to arrive.

 

[Vastator]

Not sure what weapons are allowed if guns are prohibited. Tasers? Banned in NY. Why?

TASER Laws and Restrictions by State

Ok, if I lived in NY I'd carry a stun cane.

Because all oppressive regimes maintain a monopoly on the use of violence.

 

[Vastator]

99.9% of Women shouldn't try to fight back. Most of the time, all it does is enrage the attacker to the point that he hurts them even worse. Play Possum.

OTOH, if the woman has a weapon, like my Wife's .380, blow his shit away. But a woman trying to strike a grown-assed man with Hai Kabachi kicks? Absurdity. Give in and hope for the best..... Like for a (real) Man to help you out. Except that, in NYC, there has been a shortage of testosterone for 50 years. STDs? Plenty of that. Testosterone? Good luck.

With where modern feminism has brought male/female social realtions... Many just frankly don't give a ****. Doesn't have anything to do with testosterone, or being a "real man". The White Knight is dead. And feminism killed it.

 

[Zincwarrior]

.380 might would be good.

.380s are terrible. The vast majority are direct blowback. A similarly sized 9mm with delayed locking breech felt recoil substantially better, and a better round to boot.

I wouldn't want to catch any.

This is true, but for the same price you can get a better gun and better rounds.
