rofl...

I stand by what I said earlier.

And MD, keep checking the poll. You are going to love it. ;)

ferretchucker 07-29-2009 11:27 AM

Interesting results. I'm trying to understand why the woman has the most votes. The guy's more severely beaten and in more immediate danger. But then, the girl's attackers are easier to take down. There should be a "Help the girl then call the police" option.

EDIT: Whoops, there is.

I stand by my choice though...

LOL cute.

(this is totally unrelated to your post)

I think I might be the smartest person in the entire world. the real crime is that there isn't even a test I can take to prove this.

A naked man charging a street gang would pobably scare the shit out of them. Pretty solid plan, unless you get your junk cut off.

I had to stand up for some women being harassed (not assaulted) this weekend in a movie theater lobby. The simple act of showing no fear tends to scare most people away. I got rid of the guy without a punch and he actually shaked my hand before leaving the theater.

sounds like a gentleman.

you are probably right about the naked man thing.

LOL.......

What the hell....some of my post disappeared...
As I was saying, I actually think my reaction to save the girl would be completely irrational. So I wouldn't consider it a "heroic" action.

Haha, okay, I do see why she may have the most votes :rolleyes:, but in this situation that's kinda the wrong reason to make a decision.

Posher778 07-29-2009 11:34 AM

Well, come to think about it... Me and Rory both have the ability of making boys disappear. Maybe we could work something out.

while you use your boyish charms to tire out the attackers, I will escort the others to safety.

I calculate most of my moves. I'm the one who questions whether "this is a good idea". I can't help but consider the consequences...

Ferox13 07-29-2009 11:43 AM

I'd stop hanging around shitty neighbourhoods for a start..

LOL@Try and save the girl, then go for the man

Ok after beating up 2 guys you would then try and tackle 6 more....I really can't see this happening. I think there are a small minority of people in the world who might pull this off but I've yet to see Mike Tyson post here.

X¤MurderDoll¤X 07-29-2009 11:45 AM

if for some odd reason all the attackers had down syndrome I could probably do it.

I don't know why but I can hit people with down syndrome really effin hard.

You never heard of Tard Strength - I'd rather face the 6 punks than Corky.

much better chance of mike tyson being one of the people you need to tackle.


monalisa 07-29-2009 12:07 PM

I voted for "Back away slowly and disappear before anybody spots you" cuz it was the closest. In addition to that, I would call 911 from my cell, and get the fuck outta there before someone attacked me. Obviously it was NOT a safe neighborhood if all that was going on.

Paul the Monk 07-29-2009 12:09 PM

I'd def call the police and do my best to save the girl!:o Forget the man, he's pretty much doomed, plus there's no chance of taking on six punks especially if they are armed!:eek:

Freak 07-29-2009 12:12 PM

How bout we say fuck saving anybody or anything in this world and we all just go on mass killing spree's?

You just can't let that go can ya?

ferretchucker 07-29-2009 12:15 PM

The way I see it the guy's the one in need of help the most. The woman's being raped, but he's gettin killed.

fuglystick 07-29-2009 12:17 PM

Seriously, all grandstanding aside, first call the police--but I'd have a hard time leaving the scene with the girl in trouble. The guy has 5 or 6 guys tearing him a new one--I can't do a thing for him, unless I had a weapon of some sort, and even then it's probably not enough. I don't think I could leave the girl though knowing there was the possibility that I could stop it. That's not out of any chivalry; my odds of not getting killed are much better with only two assailants instead of 6, and my conscience would make me do something, as futile as it may be.

We should go help beat up the man instead then go point and laugh at the woman being raped.

Holes in the ground don't qualify as safety unless we're referring to ourselves kiddo. You know better.

Not what you would do for reals I hope!:eek: :confused: :rolleyes:

Ferox13 07-29-2009 12:31 PM

LOL@Tyson being one of the rapists..

At least Freak didn't join in the rape..

I doubt many people here would do well in the 2 vs 1 situation - i know I won't wanna deal with it.

ok, I promise that was the last one.

Dante'sInferno 07-29-2009 01:00 PM

I would go for the girl then call the police and hope that the man survives. But, when I got done saving the woman and calling the police, I would see if the man was still alive and if he was, I would TRY to help him. Based of facts: These people attack in groups, so they're probably individually weak. I have some Tae Kwon Doe training and my brother taught me some moves when he was in the marines. If they've been kicking his ass for a good ten minutes they would probably be tired and look at yourself, you've gotten to the pissed off point where your adreniline is pumping. I don't know about you all, but when I get pissed off I can do some scary shit. I'm not trying to sound badass, and I'm very calm regularly, but when I get like that I black out. So if people's lives were at stake there is no telling what I would do. Plus I'm a pretty big fucking guy. I would gladly save both and have a broken bone and some bruises and by that time, the police would be there. When I get well, I would never go back there again. I would also ask how the people I saved were.

or you could like get stabbed in the stomach and slowly bleed to death or shot in the face which is probably more likely than a broken bone and some bruises.

What if they didn't have any weapons? If they did, that seems like a pretty bad place, so with some prior knowledge I would bring a gun or a knife for sure.

well the scenario is you have no weapon, and you don't know anything about the thugs or victims. the "victims" could be child molesters and the thugs could be carrying automatic weapons for all you know.

Well if they DID have guns? I don't see why they wouldn't just shoot the man and get it over with. Well, for sure I would help the woman, then call the police.

maybe they are just supposed to rough him up and not kill him.

bwind22 07-29-2009 01:24 PM

Call the police, then trying to save the girl seems like the logical thing to do (even though the police on the phone will say not to interfere.)

Well, V said they were beating him up with no signs of stopping so I was going by that. It would be a horrible situation to go through.

You really think this would give u the edge against 2 guys not to mention 6?

NO. When decisions like this come up you don't think rationally you go on instinct.
