The background on the Bystander Effect here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bystander_intervention
"People may also assume that other bystanders may be more qualified to help, such as being a doctor or police officer, and their intervention would thus be unneeded. "
Assuming you are willing to render aid to prevent a crime from happening (rape/murder) but are in an environment filled with many people (restaurant), would you automatically assume you are the most qualified?
Have you ever considered the bystander effect? Do you think you are stricken by it? Since you have gotten your CHL have you been able to overcome it?
Just some food for thought.
