This is very distressing - but what gets me is that someone actually stands there and videos this sort of thing instead of trying to help the victim. I don't know this case in particular but know of similar ones that have happened in this part of the world, where people have stood around and made no effort to intervene. Standing there taking videos (for their own gratification and excitement???) which often incites the perpetrators to be more vicious.

I know that people don't like to get involved and are worried for their own skin but surely if they have anything about them the first thing to do is to try to help the hapless victim.
What if the victim belonged to them? How would they feel knowing that no-one had helped.

The attackers are bullies and cowards - the video takers are not much better.

You are spot-on Margaret with your comments in regard to respect.
