When you are out in public do you try to be a little more respectful of the people around you? I know I do, especially when there are young children around. I may curse when I get frustrated but when I am in public and within earshot of people I don’t know, or even those I don’t know very well, I monitor myself and make sure I am on my best behavior. However, not everyone in the world feels that they need to be mindful of others. In an article on foxnews.com a couple beat a man because he asked them to stop cursing with his young children within earshot. They were at one of the KFC’s in Massachusetts and it was taking a while for their order to be ready so the couple became frustrated and began to curse the man taking the orders. When another patron in line asked them to stop, the man punched him in the head and the woman proceeded to kick him while he was down. Talk about rude and disrespectful. Both of the assaulters were charged with assault and battery but its unknown whether or not they will be convicted because it hasn’t gone through the court system yet.
I wonder if other people were around to witness this, and if so did they try to stop it? I would like to think that if I would have been there I would have tried to help, but in reality, I’m sure if I would. I think I might be too scared to walk up to those people and say something and try to get the woman to stop kicking the man. It would be a little intimidating to go up to someone beating the crap out of someone else and tell them to get a life and go away! Anyway, the link is below but I basically told you the whole story!

That's horrible! I try and do the same thing, and calm myself and try and not embarass myself in public. I actually get really mad when people that are with me are cussing up a storm or are just acting stupid. I think it's rude and impolite. I totally agree with you. Seeing that happening I honestly don't know what I would do, but hopefully I would have my dad there, and maybe he would stop it. I'm too little to really do much besides calling for help or anything
ReplyDeleteThat is absolutely terrible! I cannot believe anyone would be able to do that. It is absolutely disgusting. I wish i could say I would have tried to stop it but just like you I think I would have been way too scared.
