Today, as I was driving to work, I witnessed a kid apparently getting jumped. Being a good citizen, I got out and started yelling at them. I ended up alongside the kid in the hospital. FML

Today, I saw a bad car wreck. I pulled over and ran to the car to find an unconscious man behind the wheel. Another car pulled up, and a guy got out. I was relieved to have help, until, to my horror, he started trying to hit on me. I was stuck with him until the ambulance arrived. FML

Today, as I was driving home, I saw a woman get hit by a car. I immediately parked on the side of the road to assist her. I called an ambulance and stayed with her until they came to get her, comforting her all the while. When I returned to my car, I found a parking ticket in my windshield. FML

Today, while driving home from basketball practice, I noticed an old lady struggling to get up from a fall. I stopped to help her up and make sure she was fine, and in the meantime, a teenager decided to hop into my car and crash it into a telephone pole and run away. FML

Today, after rolling my car on the highway, I witnessed several people stop and get out of their cars to take pictures. No one asked if I was okay, and I was the one who had to call 911 for myself. FML

Today, a punk-looking college kid was making fun of my mentally handicapped son. Out of anger, I punched him in the face. I got handcuffed and thrown into a police car. The kid stood there laughing and pointing at me. FML

Today, while picking my daughter up from school, I saw her being beaten by two boys while the teacher stood there doing nothing. I ran to help, but then she pushed one of the boys off her. The teacher then pulled her away, yelled at her and then yelled at me for "not raising my kid right." FML

Today, I was going into a store and saw a woman roughly handling a screaming toddler. I kept walking, until I heard the kid scream, "Help! You’re not my mommy!” I called 911 and stood behind the car to keep her from taking off. The cops arrived to see me fending off blows from a very pissed off grandma. FML

Today, I noticed a young child wandering out onto a busy street. I managed to grab his arm just as he stepped off the sidewalk and yank him away from almost certain death. My reward was his mother, who was on her cell phone the whole time, screaming at me for touching her child. FML

Today, someone was getting beat up by 6 guys. When I tried to help, they had a swing at me as well. The cops came when I was enthusiastically defending myself. They got away, I got arrested. FML

You did the right thing, don't worry about it. Karma/fate/God/whatever you want to call it, will take care of the jumper.

Call 911 next time before you get out.

Agreed, but the only problem there is that police never arrive quick enough =/

Exactly. If the guy was strong/aggressive enough, then the kid could have had much worse injuries by the time OP had gotten out of the car.

At least you were trying to help. It didn't work out too much on your part though.

Hey at least you went out to help! I bet tons of people passed by without stopping. PLUS there was a hospital nearby. Convenience!

All the really evil gangs hang out near hospitals. That way the people assaulted can get fixed right up and then jumped again. It's a vicious cycle...

At least you tried! Most people are either too scared or too selfish to do anything at all. The kid you're beside in the hospital could've gotten hurt a lot worse had you done nothing. Thanks for being a good person.

You should of called the cops instead. Your heart was in the right place though. You're lucky they didn't have any weapons.

He should have used his cell to take pics, call cops, then jump in! That kid might have been killed if he didn't! Thank God some people still care enough to get involved!!!
