[quote=“sandman”][quote=“Damage”][quote=“Homey”]Normal daily event. Chinese have no empathy, sympathy or compassion. It’s simply beyond their mental ability to care about other people or animals. Sad depressing place for sure.
How a restaurant full of people can eat while someone is beaten, or 100’s if not 1000’s of people can drive by while someone bleeds to death on the street, I will never understand. I will never understand such cold, heartless, and selfish behavior, but of course I’m just a crazy foreigner.
[b]I’ve observed that there are two type of Chinese.
-
The racist ones that discriminate → They hate foreigners.
-
The non racist ones that don’t discriminate → They hate everybody.

The truth is, these are not happy people. Happy people want to spread that happiness to others. On the flip side, people in great pain, will often spread that pain to others even if its completely unconscious. We can only share with others what we have to share. Happy people don’t do the nasty, rude, and often dangerous actions that we see everyday. The sad truth is that both the victim and the perpetrator are suffering. It’s a deeply sick society, one that doesn’t allow honest introspection or communication of natural feelings. These people are under intense pressure to maintain imaginary and irrational face. Sick individuals will never make a healthy society no matter how many Confucian ideals are thrust upon them.[/quote]
Seriously. Stupid, offensive horse shit. Where do you live?[/quote]
Not America, not Taiwan, not Europe, not the UK, not South Africa, not Canada, not Australia, not New Zealand, that’s for sure. Because in ALL those places, most people will studiously ignore other people’s suffering if they think they might get hassle if they get involved. And in ALL those places there are those who will get involved come what may if they think they can alleviate someone else’s suffering.
However, its much much easier for the clueless and the ignorant to label the people of “some” countries as somehow less compassionate than the people of “some other” countries. Does nothing but illustrate the daftness of the labeler IMO.
In Britain, for example, a doctor is bound by law to attend to a traffic accident if he or she comes across one and the paramedics haven’t arrived. In America, doctors are bound by their insurance companies to just drive on by or risk litigation for which they won’t be covered.
Goddamn those unfeeling Yanquis, eh? [/quote]
LOL, this guy talking about only two types of Chinese people is sick. I mean if he was joking around that’d be one thing, but he sounds dead serious. Very sad.
And everyone in America is protected by Good Samaritan Laws. If you decide to help someone who is seriously injured or ill, you face no liabilities. This protection even goes further for doctors and those first aid certified, but it even applies to your average Joe.
I’ve seen medical emergencies on flights twice, and both times an American doctor was on board and stepped forward to administer aid. This law was passed to prevent hesitation among bystanders. And of course I’ve seen plenty of people in the states jump out of their vehicles to help at the scene of an accident, and of course I’ve seen just as many people drive on by not really caring. It’s the same everywhere man. You have people who care and those who don’t. All you can do is treat people the way you want to be treated. So accept it.
