Child Beaten to Death in Front of Motorists

Why didn't anybody stop Robert Thompson or Jon Venables? (I use them as an example because there was no possibility of danger to anyone who would have intervened in that situation)

It seems that people don't want to involve themselves.

It may even be that we are being taught not to ... calling the police is supposed to be the right answer, so as not to put yourself in danger.

I honestly don't know what I'd do in similar circumstances, and I do carry a gun. I'd like to say that I would call 911, then try to talk to the guy, and consider deadly force as a last resort.
