A Murder at McDonald\u2019s<\/strong><\/p>\n

On May 28, a female customer at a McDonald\u2019s in Zhaoyuan, Shandong was beaten to death<\/a>. The Zhaoyuan police arrested six suspects, who are alleged to be members of the \u201cevil cult\u201d of the \u201cAlmighty God.\u201d Video of the attack and images of the woman\u2019s body surfaced online, stirring debate about whether fellow restaurant patrons or staff should have intervened<\/a>. Some are comparing this incident to the death of \u201cLittle Yueyue<\/a>,\u201d a toddler who was run over and ignored by more than a dozen pedestrians before an elderly woman came to her rescue. Others contend that it is too easy for the \u201cKeyboard Party\u201d (\u952e\u76d8\u515a) to moralize, without knowing how they themselves would react in a similar situation.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
