Brave boy rings alarm bell for all
Peng Fei, an 11-year-old boy of Jiangjin, Chongqing municipality in Southeast China, saw a man stealing money from an old man on a bus. "Stop, you pickpocket," he shouted. The thief grabbed the boy by the throat and slapped him hard. All the other people on the bus, including the driver and the conductor, watched silently; nobody tried to protect the boy, who burst into tearful cries.
Shame on these adults!
Nowadays, it seems to have become common for people to turn a blind eye to thefts on buses. But the event last week is shocking, for more than 30 adults remained inactive in front of a bandit bullying a boy who bravely tried to stop the man twice his size. What happened to the manhood of the male passengers at the scene? Did they not have even an iota of righteous indignation?
