Well that was a first. 😬
In the park, there was a group of 9 boys, and the eldest by far was beating on one of the younger 8, who then collapsed sobbing while his little brother fell weeping over him to protect him from more.
I stopped, and a Colombian woman did, so at first I deferred to her. But while she helped the boy up, his brother still clinging to him, the eldest kept defending his actions: it was the child's fault if he got hit for messing with someone bigger. The woman left. But...
