I think someone who attempts to save the girl from the bully at his own peril and gets both of them beat up instead is still a hero. You don't. I think we can leave it there.
bad analogy POLICE have been alerted:
the bully can & will get beaten and/or stopped.
noble cause EVERYONE will get behind.
some jackass protesting his right to film a courtroom lobby?
BIG FUCKING YAWN
i couldn't give a shit less (as most sane people) the ''right'' for a person to videotape a court lobby.
COURTROOM?
dif. story.
In Sam's case, the bully WAS the police.
And now Sam's not only not a hero, but a jackass???? WTF?
And contrary to your take, people outside the FSP are starting to take note and defend Sam. (search sam and examiner.com)
And since we're going ad hominem, I see a jackass and it isn't Sam.
