Why do people video other people getting murdered?
It’s pretty common to see videos of people idly standing by while someone is murdered. Here’s just one recent example from PINAC: http://photographyisnotacrime.com/2014/07/17/nypd-kill-man-video-breaks-fight/ There are about 10 cops hanging around while the poor fellow is murdered by cops.
