seriously though... i was reading about this in the paper this morning... f'ing disgusting... the fifty-something year old lady who FINALLY came and helped the girl and pulled her to the side of the road was a garbage picker.. who was hunting for scraps when she found the kid.. and was yelling out for help and none of the shopkeepers would help her

How did that second truck not give a shit and run her over too?? Absolutely despicable for any human being to be treated this way, much less a 2 year old little girl...

Since then a lot of people have become reluctant to be Good Samaritans.
Anyhow, this incident about the toddler caused a lot of public outrage and shame for the Chinese people. On Weibo (the Chinese Twitter with >140 million users) millions of people have voiced their support for the parents.
The rescuer in the end got a 10K yuan reward and a job with stable income from a local company.Last edited by Prime; Thu Oct 20, 2011, 02:30 PM.

A few years back an elderly woman was struck by an hit-n-run car and she was helped to the hospital by another driver. The woman then proceeded to sue her rescuer and the courts ruled in favour of her. Apparently the court's reasoning was that "if he (her rescuer) wasn't the one who hit her, why would he help her?".

Regardless of what may have happened in the courts previously in China, how the hell does someone walk by a little girl like that leaving her for dead?! It's just crazy man. Idk know maybe this affects me more cuz I got little kiddies, but I just don't understand how that can happen.
The girl died.

You cant generalize and say chinese people cant drive.
You can say "some" or "a number" but you cant generalize and put all chinese people in a negative light.
That is being racist.

But lets not get lost over the whole not helping out thing here.
The ones who are truly to blame here are the parents. The child was run over and dying for more than 5 mins and the parents are nowhere in sight. True the hit and run driver should be jailed, but so should the parents as well for child neglect.
