I see this stuff all the time. Nobody jumps in and just films. Times have really changed…. For the worst in this case

Regardless of who started it, that’s a brutal and sad ending for a kid.

Not disagreeing, but at least the referees aren’t standing around with their cameras out.

And there is the problem, people are too selfish. Only thinking about themselves
