You don't say no to that. . .and the police will do nothing.

As if he knew her and had a beef to pick with her, so brought his buddies to help beat her up.

(5,689 posts)10. There is no law in China protecting people from helping others
If the helper causes any injury, the helper can be 100% liable for everything from civil to criminal.
No one gets involved because of that.
