8. Telling people they HAVE to intervene sounds a little despotic.
SHOULD he have intervened? Of course.

But should he be required to intervene? That's a very different question.

It's his body, and if he doesn't want to use it to intervene, that's his right. But I'd caution him that what goes around comes around, and he may need someone to help him one day.

And as for videotaping it, it obviously wasn't for commercial purposes.
