I would be so upset for them I would have to try and stop it. I would ring the police as well, if this is happening in the street, imagine how awful their lives at home must be.

I guess for most people it would depend on the situation. I myself would find it very hard to watch and not do something. If I couldn't physically do something. I would probally yell at him and tell him the police are on their way, in any case the police should be called.
