Hillary Clinton had it right when she said this specific race is super predators I don’t like Hillary Clinton I hate Hillary Clinton but she was right when she said these dark face criminals are super predators and we should kill them all
I think the human body naturally stays still as a self defense mechanism (shock in other words). Like they say "if you stay still nothing will happen to you" but this is just my guess.
I think because when it happens, it’s so fast by the time you do think it’s almost always over. Having been around the block a few times in The Bronx and the heights plus Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 been through a couple of these thank God they have always happened fast I really wish they had channels like coming up thankyou John for that you and everyone at ASP for your work
In response to John’s question, I believe it’s because people are engulfed with a false sense of security, thinking that while some sort of criminal act can happen and they believe it just really won’t happen to them, they fail to recognize an active threat early enough to decide whether to fight or flee from the scene for their own safety.
One must train themselves to default, and make their decision beforehand to either fight or fly. People who freeze are not programmed or expecting trouble.
Ppl don't run either cause of shock or they might think that running might still end up with them not making it. Doesn't matter of u could run u might still get shot in the back while doing so. If they don't have a gun well it might be easier but the victim might still think that running isn't the best option If they believe they can't outrun the threat.
Funny how almost nobody says anything about how everyone here has their nose so deep in their phones that Lady Godiva could stroll by and nobody would notice. But if asked they would ALL say they were VERY aware of what is going on. GET OUT OF THIS PHONE CULTURE PEOPLE! WAKE UP AND TAKE YOUR LIFE BACK BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. But it is already too late for most of you.

Very important to pay attention to what’s happening to leave as early as possible

The last guy didn't give up his phone because he was using it 🙂📱
I don''t want to be shot in the back. I need to see my attacker. Running is secondary.
I don't wanna run and get hit while doing so. I'd rather fight or surrender. Running is viable when the perp isn't focused on me.

I've had a gun pulled out on me. I've never ran so fast in my life!. Didn't stop to think just ran till I couldn't see them no more

Shock, confusion, then fear
I wish we would rename it the "fight, flight or FREEZE" response because it is more accurate.
People don't run due to deer-headlights-syndrome. Information overload and a bit of turtling.
Only possible problem would be the possibility of being shot in the back
Normal c Bias
i can't run when scared lol my body freeze
I think it's a predatory response.

That’s my personal opinion.
I think fear of getting shot in the back stops most people from immediately trying to dip
The rules we've come to live by. Work? Comply. Planes? Comply.
My dad has always told me RHF which is Run, Hide, and Fight. In that order. He says only fight if the other options are not available.
Broke people stealing phones smh

Glad to see him solo. We don't need Mike on this channel.

second dude definitely had his head on a swivel and that was wise.
Someone should have stolen his scooter when his back was turned
Most times people dont run away after being confronted with a gun is probably the Oh No affect.
All ego….
Definitely normalcy bias, at least in most cases. Crime is something that happens in TV shows and on the news, not to us.
