It's the sub-urbs. There isnt really much to do. So many punk thugs trying to be hardcore, even though there middle-class kids. Some parents dont even know there kids anymore. Kids are getting smarter by playing 2 sides. Parents think moving to the sub-urbs is better than living in the city, but sometimes that is not true.

I think there is just something wrong with not calling the police about that girl screaming. i dunno about the parties in that area... but you can tell the difference between rowdy party screams, and a 19 year old girl screaming for help.
there's party's and shit that happen around my area too, and we've all gone through the same thing. you can tell if it's just a bunch of rowdy teenagers having a party in the park. but at 6am on a saturday morning, all is quiet except ONE girl screaming for 5 minutes for help?? there's a big difference there.. there has been quite a few murders around my area, so i know what it's like when it happens. it's really sad. i just really wonder why no one called the cops about the people screaming.. =\ no where is totally safe to live.. i don't get people who think that. sure things may look good from the outside, but it's never all sugar and spice..

you know, surprising as it seems, what happened demonstrates a phenomenon called bystander effect, and it's definitely not the first time in history it's happened.
see, the bystander effect states that the more bystanders there are during a scene where help is needed, the less help will be provided because the assumption of the need to take responsibility is diffused through all the other bystanders. and researchers have done studies that indicated that this occured NOT because bystanders were apathetic, callous, sadists who became completely desensitized to murders. it was simply due to the situational factors (ie. the presence of the other people) that made them assume that "hey, there are all these other people out there.. they'll probably take responsibility for helping her!". and dj4mula: I've read research indicating that this sort of scenario would probably actually be worse in a big city, seeing as there's more people, hence, they become more deindividualized, therefore caring less about the outcomes.. I mean.. hey, it's not like they'll ever see them again right? :P --Joanne :P
