Earlier tonight I was in bed with my girlfriend talking and she mentioned how a girl she used to be best friends with is in some trouble. I went to gradeschool with the girl that is in trouble and she used to be the best friend of my girlfriend so it's a small world after all. Anyway enough of my late night ramblings and back to the point of my post. This girl is 18, has a kid, and is living with the kid's dad, a guy that is no good judging from what my girlfriend has told me. According to her he hits his baby's momma, has beaten up her little brother, and has stolen from his baby's momma's mom.
Now my initial reaction to this was to say that somebody needs to kick that guy's ass. After my girlfriend and I had a thoroughly enjoyable night I came home and aimlessly messed around on the internet for a bit since sleep did not come readily to me. During my aimless time wasting the words, "somebody needs to kick that guy's ass," reverberated through my mind until I got to thinking about how one of the biggest problems with the world is that nobody takes responsibility for their lack of action. Most people are always saying somebody should do something about such and such or put a stop to so and so but they never make any effort to do it themselves. My saying that somebody should kick his ass was just my passing the buck off to a nameless, faceless person that would no doubt do the same thing I did.
So now that I have come to the conclusion that I must act it somewhat changes the course of action that I had originally thought would be best. I can't very well kick the crap out of him or at least can't do so right away for a variety of reasons. I'm about as far removed from the situation as I can be but now that I know about it I'm morally obligated to intervene in some way to ensure that this girl isn't getting beaten anymore.
Do you guys have any suggestions for how I should deal with the situation? I know I could always call the cops but they're pretty damn worthless in my town. For instance a while back when my dad got robbed they didn't dust his kitchen counter for prints because they said it was too smooth. The dumb sons of bitches apparently were never trained at all because the smoother the surface the better the prints you'll be able to pick up off of it.
