Do The Right Thing, Get Done Wrong

This is what you get when you try to be a Good Samaritan: You see a couple arguing and fighting in the car in front of you at the McDonald's drive thru. You try to break the fight up. Big mistake right there. And then, out of nowhere, another truck pulls up and some crazed women pile out, mistakenly thinking you're attacking the woman of the fighting couple, and one hits you in the eye with a stiletto heel, blinding you. That's what happened in this case. No wonder most people won't get involved.(Dayton Daily News)
In a similar vein, there's this story, in which a guy saw some dude beating his girlfriend, tried to break it up, and ended up being beaten into the hospital by the batterer. Again, you're justified in not wanting to get involved. Just discreetly call 911 and get out of there. (St. Paul Pioneer Press)
