I can't see you, because I don't want to.
On July 31st, 2008 a man was badly beaten in downtown Owen Sound. There were lots of witnesses to the beating which occurred right across from Jason's Pub. I have friends that were gloating about the fact they saw this man have the hell beat out him and did nothing to stop it; and I mean nothing at all.
There was no call to 911, no run in to rescue him. It was not until a passing cabby saw him that he was saved and taken to hospital. He had suffered numerous phyical wounds including the following:
- Punches
- Kicks
- Stabbing
- 2x4 to the head
People watched this go on. Yes we have seen it before, we saw it in LA when rodney king was wailed on without a second thought. I don't know about other people but I am not going to sit idlely by as some person is beaten, raped or otherwise injured or possibly killed. The real criminals are those who do nothing to stop this from happening. I am not saying you need to jump into the middle of the melee but atleast call the authorities.

Manitoba Bus Stabbing
Hello Everyone. So I am sure by now everyone has seen the news and is horrified by the events that happened to poor Tim. Many people have sent fond remarks and prayers to his family about the incident and for those people I say thank you.
For those of you who take this opportunity to yell and scream about every little feeling from capitol punishment to immigration issues, I say for shame. A young man has been killed in a horrific and almost unspeakable manner in front of many people who will forever be scarred by the event and you act tough by blogging. If you do not understand what I am saying, check CBC under the article and read the blog, most of its disgusting!
Was this a tragedy? Yes.
Should Canadians send their love and prayers to the young mans family? Yes.
Should we think about the killers family and their feelings? Definitely.
We should not yell and scream and try to push our own agendas in any way. I do believe that things in this country must change for our own security, but using this event as the platform is not the right approach.
Let the family mourn in peace, push our government to make this country safer, use your words for good not trolling forums and blogs.
