Swanson was released from the Mental Hospital... his condition is stable, as long as he cooperates with his doctor's orders to not go near any ponds from now on.

I had hear of these before but knew that people were fucked up long before I did which is one of the reasons I like to avoid them when I can. The bystander one is tricky I stopped and tried to help a guy who was bleeding pretty bad from cuts his face once in college when he began attacking the car I was in and screaming at us. That dampened my willingness to help people at times unless they look harmless.
^This reminds me of when I was in the city with a friend and a group of people walked up to us. One of them asked me for a dollar to help with bus fare. So I got my wallet out and opened it. About four of them pounced on me and tried to get my wallet off me but they couldn't. I was forced down on the ground and hurt my knee pretty badly. But I kind of rolled onto my back and started kicking out at them so they gave up and left.I asked my friend afterwards why didn't she help me and she said she thought I was messing around. Why would I mess around with people I had never seen before? Anyway since then I tend not to give any money to people who ask for it. I just say I don't have any.
Ordinary people will do fucked up things when fucked up things become ordinary.
Oh, wow, this thread was started like a year ago or so. Now that I'm majoring in Psychology, I feel like such an amateur the way I posted the OP.
