Went to see what it was, and there was this woman, she had an infant and a little boy who was about four or five. He was holding up a pair of shoes that he wanted, and the woman was beating the shit out of him. I said something like, &#8220;Damn, give the kid a break, it&#8217;s a five-dollar pair of shoes,&#8221; which pissed her off more, so she took that anger out on the little boy. She started lumbering to the door while dragging the little boy by his head, and then she stuck her foot out and tripped him. I helped him up, and she swung at me. She beat him all the way out the door, and what really pissed me off was that not one other person in that store said or did anything.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<p>&#8220;I called 911 and followed the woman out the door and got her tag number, and of course by the time the police showed up, she was gone. All I could think of was that poor kid, and if she beat him like that out in public, god only knows what he goes through at home. What was worse was that this child was a scrawny little boy, and the mother was at least 6 ft and well over 300 lbs. I really wish I would have followed her home or wherever else she was going. I still often wonder about that kid; he would be a teenager by now.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u2014\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/AskReddit\/comments\/1ukp5dn\/comment\/ouyflbe\/\" target=\"_blank\">Icy_Sandwich866<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>23. &#8220;I nearly got locked up because of this, but I was at a clothing store; I was in front of the store getting a basket when I heard screaming and yelling.
