Social scientists have long been fascinated by the “bystander effect,” in which ordinary people remain idle as evil deeds are done.
A group of brave commuters at London’s Canning Town station showed this year that the opposite can happen, too: that everyday people can take swift heroic action when terrorists attempt to disrupt their way of life.
During a chilly October rush hour, a pair of young men—later revealed to be members of an apocalyptic cult—stormed the top of subway cars and began raving.
Rather than flee from the chaos, commuters ran toward the threat, swarmed the cars, and bid the individuals to come down.
When reason failed, they pelted the cult members with everyday objects—bottles of water and the like—before wrestling them from the train.
At great personal peril, members of the crowd neutralized the disturbed young men on the ground, returning the crowded station to normal operations.
Luckily for the public, witnesses on the platform were able to document the whole episode so that the bravery of these anonymous heroes would not go unnoticed.

As heroic as our Men in Blue are, it is inspiring when everyday people placed in extraordinary circumstances rise to the occasion and defend whatever the British equivalent is of the American Way of truth and justice, of apple pie and baseball.

Pain, dislocated shoulder, torn knee cartilage, damaged liver, broken eardrums. Honest, Officer, that is the way he ended up when he came down off the train. He repeatedly tried to bite my shoe so it is his fault some teeth are missing.
Yeah, but apparently British judges [freemasons, what else?] ruled that not only this train guy moron was innocent but all others who disturbed the day to day people routine were all innocents as well, open the precedent that now, if ignorant rebellion extinction want, they can protest anywhere anyhow….This big herd cannot discern why the mainstream media is rallying behind them….nor none of them knows that weather weapons exist since the 50’s [1976 UN Weather Weapons Treaty] !! Nor is this blog using this factual piece of evidence!!![think for yourselves why…]
Many have had it with these idiots gluing themselves to the tops of Airliners and Subways their fed up witha bunch of jerks blocking traffic to unfurl their stupid banners and wave their stupid signs in the air with stupid slogans on them their fed up with their football games being disrupted by a bunch of jerks chanting some stupid slogans and their fed up with this DIVEST IN FOSSIL FUELS nonsense
Time to make ’em suffer for screwing up everyone’s lives in the name of zealous, delusional, ignorant belief in fraudulent science. Moronic green shirt foot soldiers for the cynical politicians and capitalists manipulating these damaged and/or unstable people for profit and power. Time to deal with them the old way?
