Generally, the people who go for these types of jobs, think it gives them power that theyve always craved, and never had. And because they are terrified of authority, they think others are too, and try to intimidate them with their cool blue suit/vest. When shit really hits the fan, they turn into the little bitches they always were.

Fucking 8$ guards...

Perhaps an extension to so-called "Good Samaritan Laws" is in order?

Do those even exist anymore?
Sure seems like they don't.

They do in many jurisdictions but are more geared to shielding a good Samaritan from being sued by the person he's aided, rather than against those who he might be shielding someone from.

I knew that things were going to hell when we needed laws that said an apology wasn't an admission of guilt.

Those laws apply to life saving measures medically. Like CPR for instance. But again, I get how litigous our society is. Ive been sued TWICE. But intervening in an assualt is VERY unlikely to get you sued. Even if you mistakenly touch a bewbie. UNLESS you do something stupid like continue to hit a person when they have become indefensible or using a gun when you shouldn't have. People are taking this wayyyyy to far into the what if zone. Specific to THIS video. Stopping that assualt would have been entirely too easy. And yes, as stated somewhere else the other witnesses are on the hook for this too. Not just Paul Blart and his co-workers.

At least it would have been easy before two of those puff-balls walked away

You could always pull it off 'accidental'... just run headlong into them, mow the assailant down, and claim you didn't see them.

I think this is all of our fault. If we hadn't picked on kids in high school, we wouldn't have such power tripping douche bag security guards.


Seriously, I probably wouldn't have done anything while they were both standing up fighting, once the first girl was down and getting kicked I may have stepped in the middle.

Believe what you want, people get charged and convicted for this shit when breaking up fights, and cops have had to defend themselves against it on a regular basis. Thats the society we live in.

I bounced in multiple bars, you know what the first and only rule of bouncing is? When women get in a fight, let them kill eachother, because if you touch them, your fucked. Its that simple.
