Can you blame them?

These two incidents are not at all equivalent. First of all, it started as an altercation and happened at 3 in the morning. Someone videoed it, instead of stepping in, likely because of moral turpitude or fear of being beat up him/herself. I doubt they were thinking, "wow, this is jut like that marine who killed a loud dude. I better not intervene."

Taking video is what I would do. I'm a woman and there's no way I could restrain a violent adult. Getting some video evidence with the perp's face is the only way I could help.

Not me. They end up back on the streets the next day and I'm not going to be publicly called a witness.

Hopefully a jury will see this for what it is.... a prosecution as a result of the mob.
And, the efforts of those who are trying to make Neely out to be some kind of hero (Al Sharpton, for one) will fail miserably.
So many witnesses (and some of those were people of color) were scared for their lives.
And, Neely was reportedly on K2 at the time.

There should be laws allowing you to restrain and kill these people

From that link -

"Neely, who struggled with mental illness, had been arrested more than 40 times, including for numerous violent assaults on strangers in the subway, and was on the city’s "Top 50" list of homeless people most in need of outreach"

Outreach?!?!

Outreach = services, including mental health services

He certainly needed mental health services but we have no real way of requiring it of those who need it but don't use it.

We moved to the next car at the next stop but it felt like a very long time. It was really not fun.

I would not get involved. Let him kill anyone he wants to kill.
