(62,325 posts)but an old lady walking along the street? How SHE handled them is not the issue, the issue is THEM. How did they get to be such monsters with zero human emotions, and who else have they been doing this to that was not on tape? And if they are not dealt with now, what are they capable of doing next?
SHE is not the issue. She did exactly the right thing. She gave these little psychopaths NO out. They cannot, as they surely would had she tried to stop them, claim it was her fault. The case against them is clear and unhindered by any attempt by her that could have been misenterpreted, that these are treats to society and now need to be dealt with that way by the proper authorities.
The proof of her success in handling the situation is that not a single person I have seen so far has even tried to defend their behavior as would have happened had she tried to stop them. And no one has anything but sympathy for her. They created a hero instead of the victim they thought she was. Now they are the reviled, shamed, despised little monsters they surely deserve to be.
I see there is a fund-raising drive for her. This is victory, society has shunned them, and have taken to their hearts the person they were hoping to continue to harass on Utube. NOT what they expected when they posted their video.
She won. They lost, badly.
