I've been beaten up before, for no real apparent reason either. Was waiting for the bus at a bus stop when I was like 10 years old, and like 4 older kids came out of nowhere and started to beat me and brother up. After about 5 minutes or so, they seemed to have gotten bored (we did try fighting back, but they were a lot bigger than us, so couldn't of done much). They didn't take anything, but I felt it might as well have been a mugging. At least they focused mostly on the body, so I didn't have any facial injuries, but I felt pretty bad for a while and wanted revenge (but unlike just shooting someone, I would've released a bomb and blew up a block or something, screw collateral damage). Luckily I never went through with that and now know better.
Another time I witnessed someone getting mugged (eerily enough, near where I got beaten up earlier in my other post), but instead of helping, I merely jaywalked to the other side of the street, since I was about a good 50 feet away from them. I saw a group of about 6 large guys (maybe in their early 20's), and next thing I knew, one of them threw a punch at a fat lady walking past them. I didn't really want to stick around, cause even if I did help, what could I have done? I don't see the point of myself getting beaten up either (yeah, you might criticize me and say you would've jumped in, but it's easy to say that; it's another to actually do it if you were in the situation I was).
Jam it back in, in the dark.
