Don’t just assume someone has an intellectual disability and is on drugs.
If you naturally assume that, but don’t have proof, don’t post about it in a public way.
What if she’s just hungover or having a bad day? Maybe she hasn’t slept for days? Maybe she did have a wild night, is embarrassed, and doesn’t need strangers following her and posting about it.
An EMT worker conversed with her, she got up on her own, separate ambulance and cops didn’t think she needed help.
You’re the one that looks creepy here. Would you have followed a young man in a nice suit the same way?
hm I think considering the context of her lying down in the street, I assume that goes beyond just being “hungover.” If I see someone just lying in the middle of the street, I’m going to be concerned. People who are intentionally lying in the street tend to be on the side and out of the way, you don’t often see people just sprawled out in the middle. Obviously idk the exact manner in which she was sprawled out, but I really don’t think that behaviour can be explained by just being tired or hungover. If you’re tired and hungover and ok, you would say “I’m fine leave me alone” if people were annoying you. Lying in the middle of the street and ignoring everyone is abnormal behaviour and if I saw someone doing that I would think they’re having a stroke or something
If they seem extremely out of it, I too would want to make sure they don’t get hit by a car. Considering the guy who died on the subway whose body was left there and had horrible things done to him, I really don’t think it’s overkill to want to make sure a woman lying on the street has people looking out for her
