Wow….. a woman was raped at a Washington park and hundreds saw it but did nothing?!?
@glownz I can’t imagine someone not trying anything, out of hundreds even.. I could never just links of london sweetie watch something like that happen
@maggieglazer Well, I could never just stand there and watch if someone like that happened…
Tried to see if anyone tweeted about the rape, since there were hundreds of people.. but I can’t find anything.
RT @nilicule: @mpoppel it’s called the Bystander Effect, http://bit.ly/JFcxh - and it’s absolutely horrible
“the greater the number of links of london sale bystanders, the less likely it is that any one of them will help.”

Continuing on with the twitter stream…
Strange.. I’d feel safer if there are a lot of people since I would expect they’d do something if it went wrong.. vs. being alone

Thinking about the rape story. The KHQ reporter said the initial call was a couple doing X-rated stuff..
So, maybe it didn’t appear as a rape? I mean, I would imagine she would try to resist and call for help but.. maybe it was from a distance
@glownz I guess its possible if people witnessed it from a distance.
@ChristopherKHQ Do you know links of london jewellery what happened? Were the witnesses close or far away?
@glownz I know.. but maybe they couldn’t see her face? I mean.. you don’t know what their view was of the entire incident..
@paige661 I know but maybe people were a distance away and that it appeared like a couple having sex and not as in a rape..
KHQ-TV says the initial links of london call was that two people were having sex behind some bushes near a bridge
