Urge to wipe out the human race: Rising

NSFW or those of a delicate disposition.

A toddler is struck by two trucks in separate hit and run accidents.  Nineteen people passing by ignore her.  I can hardly believe any human could be this fucking heartless.

Some actual content warnings would be cool.  I'm not jumping into a youtube link rated "horrific" without any actual idea as to what occurs.

If you dig into some of the facts, there's a legal precedent in China where a good Samaritan can actually be blamed for the damage.  As a result, scammers have used feigned injuries to extort/defraud money out of people.

For those of you in the States, it's similar to dragging someone from a burning car and having them sue you for letting glass cut them or not keeping their spine straight enough to avoid further injury.

Infants with crushed legs don't tend to be scammers in my fairly limited experience.  And seriously, what kind of twisted person would even think of any financial consequences when it comes to helping a child in serious need?

Does no one else see irony in the title ("wiping out the human race") when we're talking about how heinous a murder is?

When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

We're talking about the difference between wishing some group of people or person dead because we don't like them, and just simply letting someone die because you don't care enough.

And you're saying the latter is worse? O.o

I realize he's not being serious, but this sort of thing bugs me. Threatening disproportionate retribution is fine in jest... but stuff like this isn't to jest about.

But whatever. It's offtopic.

What I don't understand is why the first truck accelerated suddenly. Was the driver actually aiming for the child?

There are no good samaritan laws; if you help and the child dies, then you are very likely to be sued.

I saw this two days ago, it made me think that people are evil. If the first truck did hit him on accident, he obviously felt the bump. Then he stopped, thought about pulling th kid out, and kept on going. The people who walked by make me sick, and the second van could have easily swerved. People are scum, who only care about themselves.
