In the past, when I read many of the posts about "in defense of others", or situations when things are escalating and are "going south", I often have thoughts about many things as there are all the sides that chime in.....

like, you don't know all the facts so keep quiet and don't intervene

or, what if you make things worse and the guy goes from upset to livid

then, well you have some moral obligation to step in and help.

Today, none of that really passed through the brain. It was more or less
she is not going to get hurt or treated worse if I can help it.

I think today if he had pulled a knife and showed her or a gun from under his shirt, I would have attacked him. That is not something I would normally
consider but today was just a little different for me.

I usually tend to think back away and get snacks another time.
