I don't know about anybody else, but i always feel less than compelled to help if the guy/girl getting attacked deserves it.
Back when i was at University, myself and my friend were sat talking when we heard a ruckus outside. We looked out of the window and saw these...cretins bickering. One female, who was pregnant, and one male. Both were out of their faces on something and shouting and swearing and the like.
Eventually, the argument escalated so that the male gave his (presumably girlfriend) a good crack across the face. My friend said she was going to call the Police, but i told her to calm her sen and just watch for a moment longer.
The drunken male then got so annoyed by the woman he threatened to "kick the baby" out of her. Which, as far as i'm concerned, would've been a God-send. I continued to watch as my friend fretted over what to do.
She did eventually ring the Police, but that was only because they began smashing up cars.
Meh.
Such a shame he didn't kick her in the stomach.
