Sorry, I'm not getting stabbed, shot. or charged with a hate crime enhanced assault over someone filming. I'll intervene if it's a rape, kidnapping, or I feel your life is in danger, otherwise I'm telling store management or calling 911 and letting those folks decide how to deal with it.
It's a societal expectation and the people who have that expectation don't understand society has changed. 60 Minutes or Dateline or one of those equally useless tv useless news magazine shows did a show about it years ago where they staged various occurrences and then filmed why most people did nothing about it and then went on to lament that fact. My recollection was they did a piss poor job explaining the reasons why intervention was a bad idea given what society had become.
