Scary AF. I stopped a man from hurting his wife yesterday and all today I’ve been watching my back, expecting something like this to happen to me lol
May God bless you & keep you safe for helping that lady. Sad that the world has turned into a place that you have to watch your back after doing something good. Glad your smart to be watching your surroundings since some men have problems dealing with their little feelings hurt after being a coward by beating up on someone smaller than them.
