I don’t know what other people think but it never fails to amaze and disgust me when watching the news on TV to see the number of incidents that are actually caught on camera by bystanders. Fires, accidents, fights, bullying, tragic situations and so on, situations where there is a victim needing help yet the first and sometimes only thing irresponsible onlookers do is to film the incident.

If the situation is under control and help is already being administered then maybe a video can be used in evidence at a later date if that is necessary, but it’s beyond my comprehension that when there’s a person or persons in urgent need of assistance the only thing that some bystanders do is to record it happening.
