Literally none of the headlines about the woman burned alive on the subway include the fact that at least one NYPD officer looked on and did nothing. So a reminder: - Cops feel zero obligation to protect you - Press can't be trusted to hold cops accountable, they're effectively the police PR wing

What is the expectation of "help" here? The victim was fully engulfed & (in reality) dead when the police arrived. Police aren't superhuman and have no super powers. That officer probably understood the victim was already dead, and was obviously looking for a fire extinguisher. Bad take here.
