I have just returned from a most interesting evening!

Several guys (outsiders) were kicking the living daylights out of a local guy. I (for reasons beyond me) jumped between them and broke it up. They went one way and I went the other..........until the sister of the recipient (of the original kicking) started kicking and screaming.....then she started ****** and blinding that I should **** off! After some encouragement, her brother (the original recipient) started to agree with her!!!!!

Should we just turn a blind eye? Should we allow this to continue? Does anyone really give a **** ?

It really makes me angry that after diving in to save the face (literally) of someone that I should be made to feel guilty!!
 
some people are just muppets, you did the right thing. 9 times out of 10 the guy would be happy as larry for the helping hand.

Sounds like the villiage idiots were having some fun and you got inbetween.

Hats of to you for stepping in, im not sure I would be able to, which im ashamed to say but im just being honest.

unless i knew them of course
Hell I wouldn't move in myself to break up a fight between someone weak and someone strong. Or two people on equal footing (although generally, when the footing is equal, a fight doesn't happen, for the more than obvious reasons).

I would never do it because I am a part of the very weak minority who would likely end up as a cadaver for what could be argued to be a good deed.
 
i jumped in once some guy was getting a kicking on the ground from these lads so i grabbed one of the lads put him in an arm lock until he started to cry from the pain and said to the others stop or I will snap your mates arm. they went away and the guy on the gorund was quite thankful, all he did was have a go at them for making noise outside his house, what is this country coming too, luckily the lads were arrested and charged

Bottom line is you did the decent thing, so if nothing else your conscience is clear. The fact that the recipient of your good deed and his sister were either too damn gormless, drunk, high as kites or a combination of all three, to appreciate it is out of your control and not worth getting annoyed about.

I agree entirely that their reaction is not what most right-thinking people would expect, but as long as I could look myself in the mirror and know I'd done what I considered to be the proverbial "right thing" in the circumstances, that would be good enough for me.
 
Very brave indeed.

A Mate of mine was in a chippy one night after a few beers. Outside several guys were beating the hell out of a girl. Nobody did a thing.
He couldn't watch any longer, and dived right in to help.
He got severly beaten up for his troubles...

Anyone who disagrees with your actions when you save them probbably think they deserve to be kicked in


Yup, the guy was probably mouthing off to the guys who kicked him in, in the first place.

Should have got out of sight and called the cops (and said you think you might have seen a gun, to make sure they turn up). Then they have to respond.
 
You were brave enough to help him out despite being outnumbered, I'd like to think if I was getting seven shades of dog doo knocked out of me that someone like you would intervene :) so well done

the guy is obviously a moron and probably thought that he would get the upper hand at some stage in the fight and somehow win it.. and didn't appreciate you ending the fight early... some people *tut

Did you get any explaination for this behaviour?
Not really, it was all a bit surreal. She was more like a jealous girlfriend than a concerned sister. I even remember pulling a guy off her as well. Her mouth seemed to be getting both of them into bother.

I can only assume that they were blind drunk and had no idea who I was. I must have taken a kick or two because this morning I feel like I used to after a rugby match. I'll think twice next time.
