      That's messed up.
      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

        Looked like the poor girl was looking for protection from the guys too as she was standing opposite them from the girl who attacked her.

          I read the article that told more about the attack and it said that the guards are restricted from intervening in assaults.

          WTF?

              That is awful and makes me sick to watch. The girl was clearly circling the guards hoping this girl would leave her alone. The one guard gets on his radio but that is it. Once the head stomping starts whether you are "restricted from stepping in" or not they need to do something.

                No doubt. It seems like a waste of money having them there with a policy like that.

                junkie is right. Policy or not, they should have intervened when the attacker started stomping on her head.

                  The one guy was kind enough to retrieve the young girl's bag from the street. Rather quickly too.

                    Let me guess, the guards are only there to ensure that everyone pays their fare, and if someone tries to slip by, they have full authority to taser them.

                        That's sad, but likely not far from the truth.

                          I think that was one of the assailants who proceeded to steal her bag.

                          Unbelievable. How do you just stand by and watch a defenseless person get assaulted?

                            I'm pretty sure they don't check fares, and I believe they're not armed in any way.
