Wednesday - Good Samaritan
Check out this article from a few weeks back about a Good Samaritan ... what do you think about the bravery he showed? Do you think you would have gotten involved like he did?
Whoa. That's crazy. I heard about it in the news a while back. I thought he had to be super brave to do it. Most people wouldn't have attempted to do anything. I don't know if I would have. It's easier said than done and I wouldn't want to say something I don't intend on keeping. Kudos to that guy though. he did a good thing.
Thats was really nice of him to do something like that. And i mean if i was in his place i whould do the samething. Because what if you were that little girl whould you want someone to risk there live for you..
I Think That Was The Best Thing Anyone Could Do. Giving Her Parents Relief And Getting To See Her Again. Risking His Own Life To Save AnOther, AnOther Person He Does Not No At That. I Think I Would Have Called The Police, But To Chase The Vehicle Might Not Have Came To Mind.
that was a very brave thing that he did, because like he said he did'nt even know if this man had a gun.he could have been killed trying to save this little girl. but being a father and knowing that this little girl was in danger and he could possibly help her himself, he sprang into action and ended up saving her life and putting the kidnapper in jail. i am VERY impressed. i don't know if i would've done the same thing as i'm already paranoid about kidnappings and what not(which is why i'm not really allowed to watch the news lol and i don't let my little sister go outside alone) but if i knew there was a way i could help her, i would've put that aside and try my best.
That was nice. He definately deserves to be a hero and I am glad the little girl made it out. I would probably never have done something that brave. I might have called the police or something. It is really nice to see that there is still good out in the world. If only it was seen more often.
about the guy, he did what he had to do. if he would've called 911, it would've tooken awhile to the point where the guy could've gotten away. i admire him for his decision because he did something that i would not have the courage to do.
It really took courage to do what he did. I don't know if I'm able to do the same thing in that situation. However, I would probably do some thimg like called 911 and try to get the license number.
I think that what he did took a lot of courage, because that man could of been dangerous and had a gun or something & he could got hurt himself. So putting his life on the line for someone rhat he didnt even know was really brave of him. I give him props because i dont know if i would of been able to do something like that.. i might of just called the police.
Wow thats truely amazing. He is a hero for that lil girl and her family. That man must feel real proud of himself for being so couragous. That was smart him him also , because the truck would have gotten away by the time police got there and he made sure the job got done to rescue the little girl. Miracles to happen especially to this family that got their daughter back safe and sound . :)
I think his bravery is amazing. Most people would say that's not my buisness. He did great thing by following him and helping the little girl get back home to her family. Yes i have got involed because you never know when that same thing could happen to you our soemone you may know our love. - Andriana Gonzalez
I think it was very brave because he risked his life and went out of his way to save this girl. He helped the girl as well as her family and made a difference by not just standing by. i, myself, would have got involved too because when you know something is the right thing to do, you do it. You don't stand around and watch someone be hurt or kidnapped but you get involved and do what most people wont. -travis allen

This man has more bravery than most...Probably even me. Not too many people go out on a limb to help others,especially people that they don't even know. This man shows courage and perseverance, and he deserves the good that is going to come to him.
I Say He Took A Big Chance Knowinq If The Suspect Had A Gun Or Anything. But Thats Real Life Riskinq What He Did But It Was Worth It While Savinq A Lil Girl Life. If That Was Me And I Seen The Same Description On The News I Would Do The Same Thing Except Tryinq To Cut Him Off I Would Have Just Followed And While Im Doing That I'll Be On The Phone With The Police.
WOW :)
ReplyDeleteThat was GREAT ♥
I believe that the man surly did show bravery.
I'm extremely glad that there are still...
People in this world who aren't afriad.
I on the other hand...
Would not have done what that man did.
I mean I would have probably just dialed 911.
I'm afraid of everything....
I hate getting involved in things...
That I don't I have any business in...
LOL ♥

ReplyDeletehe shows the bravery that everyone should have of at least take the chance. he is a brave man and should inspire some people to do the same.
ReplyDeleteIf i would have had the same chance he did i probably would have just reported it to the police and hope they did something
