The murderer is an attractive person an is only armed with a knife. They murdered someone because the victim was ugly and walking somewhat slowly and are now stabbing the victims companions, who are also ugly though not slow. Luckily, the victim had several king cobras on them, which have now escaped and you recently took a class on how to handle live cobras and use them as weapons.

Not unless it was someone I really cared about or I had a gun.

Real life isn't a movie. You don't want to approach someone weilding a knife. Simple knife swings can cause considerable damage.

Edit: Probably should have read the OP. Didn't realize tc was having a fever dream

Intervening in a stabbing is the best way to get stabbed.

Depends. I mean... it's like that one song goes...

"I'd die for you" that's easy to say
We have a list of people that we would take
A bullet for them, a bullet for you
A bullet for everybody in this room
But I don't seem to see many bullets coming through
See many bullets coming through
Metaphorically, I'm the man
But literally, I don't know what I'd do

That aside, I can see myself doing it for my family. Wife, son, etc... In a heartbeat...

Stranger? Maybe if it was young un'... but again, it's easy to say shit. I know what I'd think I'd do...

It would depend entirely on how I read the situation. Too many variables to give an honest answer.

My daughter/Wife: yes id interviene and just die if i couldnt stop them.

If Mike tyson or a lion wanted to kill my family id just throw myself at Tyson/Lion if only to slow them down so my family might be able to run away.

Randos: Sorry, no.

Surely it depends on what you throw? I once saw somebody armed with a knife very handily dispatched by somebody throwing a claw head hammer at them.

No. The victim's cobras were in a container that was dropped and now open. Medusa got decapitated, not stabbed.

This happened to me once.

Well not the cobra's part but a dude was trying to kill this girl with a knife. She was backed against a wall and cowering.

And yes I did intervene. The guy ended up slashing me in the arm.

One of the 3 times I got stabbed. (Well slashed. Whatever)

Worst part was he jumped into a car and drove away and I didn't get the liscence plate so as far as I know he got away with it. The police I spoke to barely cared.

I'm a pretty small/weak dude and I imagine it would end bad for me

Honestly, no for a stranger.

Maybe for a friend(I'd like to say definitely but I really don't know)

Definitely for my mother, dad and sister

I didnt want (the person answering the question) to have a gun in this scenario, because it could make things too easy. I did, want (the person answering this question), to have some type of item to use as defense. I recalled people have been robbed at snakepoint, so snakes sounded fun. I wanted the murderer to not have a gun as well, because the murderer having a gun is a more immediate flee scenario (unless perhaps the person answering had a gun, but I already wanted that out of the equation).
Basically, would you intervene if someone was getting stabbed, and I Mad Libsd some details.

If they're already murdered the best I can do is to report it.
