We cannot overly criticize anything the passersby did or didn’t do. To be honest, ever since we had the Nanjing judge [see previous post for explanation], the entire society has took a turn for the worse when it comes to this issue. If we did not have this video, I don’t know if whether or not this ayi would be this lucky [in being rewarded for her actions].
网易陕西省手机网友:
The Nanjing judge is the 19th passerby to not save the dying!
.xulin289 [网易浙江省绍兴市网友]:
Although this sound bad, the reality is that 90% of the people will be just like those 18 people, what they would actually do is often times not the same as what they say.
lovedingxu1 [网易四川省成都市网友]:
The reward money should be provided by the Nanjing court.
网易丹麦手机网友:
Heartache, China’s shame.
yyjz0422 [网易广东省广州市网友]:
Begging all the media, leave lady Xian [ayi] alone! Or else no one will become a Good Samaritan; you’ve all seriously intruded on her normal life.
网易江苏省泰州市网友:
Remorse? What were they doing earlier? Would people who had humanity just stand by and watch such a gruesome scene? Chinese people, ignoring what doesn’t affect them personally, sometimes not having everyone gather around to watch out of curiosity is already good enough!

If it was me, I would only call the police and then walk away, I would not help her up. Reason is as follows: 1, afraid of being accused, afraid that as soon as I saved her, her parents would come out accusing me of hurting her. 2, after saving her no one will claim her, and I have to foot the medical expenses, if her parents do not show up then it would be hard for me to leave/remove myself from the situation. 3, In the circumstance that we still do not know the specifics of the traffic accident, I’m afraid if I save her then the police will catch me as the perpetrator, I can only think of these, I hope other netizens can add more. If there are people who agree with me, please repost, and I also hope the editor/author will not delete this post, as I too am a good person/law-abiding citizen.

According to the logic of the Nanjing and Tianjin [There was a case similar to the Peng Yu case in Tianjin this year] judges, if they weren’t pushed by you, then how could she have been hit by the car? Don’t think that just because you weren’t driving the car you aren’t responsible. If there’s anything our judges are capable of it is finding ways to find you culpable/responsible, and have you pay compensation/fines.

Those netizens who say the ayi only did it for fame, may your future child be born without a butthole.
On Sina Weibo, “retweeted” over 200k times with over 40k comments…
Please stop indifference! From now on, little secretary [referring to self] advocates that everyone use #stop the indifference# as the tag to post on weibo. The tragedy of Little Yue Yue getting ignored by 18 people should never happen again, that morality should not go astray and conscious still remain. From now on let’s begin helping those around us who needs help; caring about others is caring about ourselves.
What do you think? Do you believe people would really do what they say they would do in these kinds of situations?
