New York passers-by leave good Samaritan to die
Well this is a shitty story, dozens of people walk by a man bleeding out on the street, one of them takes the time to snap a picture, but doesn't call 911. The fuck is wrong with people these days, everyone is so self absorbed in their own bullshit they can't even help a fellow human being, pretty pathetic display by these passers-by. I would say I hope this keeps them up at night, but by walking by a dying man and not offering help, they've already shown they have no conscience.

Surveillance video shows that a good Samaritan who was stabbed after apparently stopping a mugging in New York City lies dying on the sidewalk for more than an hour while people walked by without stopping, the New York Post reports.
The victim, a homeless man identified as Hugo Alfredo Tale-Yax, is seen collapsing on the sidewalk early last Sunday on 144th St. in Jamica, Queens. Dozens of people walk by, including one man who takes a video picture.
By the time help arrives, Tale-Yax is already dead, the Post reports.
The New York Times quotes a police spokesman as saying units responded to three 911 calls, the first, shortly before 6 a.m., reported a woman screaming; the second, at 7:09, reported a man lying on the street.
Both calls, the Times says, gave incorrect addresses.
The third, at 7: 21 a.m., about a man lying in the street, led to the discovery of the body.
"We would expect someone to call 911 and, if possible, to stay with the victim until help arrives," police spokesman Paul Browne says, according to The Times.
