Showing Original Post only (View all)So you see the guy across the street viciously beating his wife. [View all]
Because you think time is of the essence, rather than just calling police, you decide you need to confront the guy yourself.
But before you go, you decide to call the guy's best friend (who you yourself are in debt to).
The guy's best friend calls the guy, and he runs out of the house before you get there.
And when you get to the guy's house, instead of checking on the wife, you just decide to kick over the guy's trash cans by the curb. To send a message.
And the next day you see the guy beating his wife again.
But it's okay. You don't need to do anything else.
Because you showed you were strong and decisive.
And that you sent a message.
