They are ghosts of past victims

because they died in the same spot which is why they also appear in every photo from each incident

The same people appear at every accident because these ghosts choose whether the victims should live or join them

I think it reflects real life bystander behavior because sometimes people are just there, watching, always watching and intervening or not intervening, like in the story. Its either or

when bullying happens in classes others might not say anything but they know its wrong and it connects to the crowd because it shows how people fail to intervene when they should

The people in the crowd was witnessing people in the car accident and not helping in any way. They contribute to the problem

kaylal325 — 2025-04-30 18:17:51 UTC

the people that already passed watched mr.s pass and didnt help

2025-04-30 18:20:01 UTC

the story connects to real life bystanders because 99% of the time in real life when fights happen, someone gets injured, a accident happens, someone getting robbed, a hit and run, etc, people or civilians would just stand around and watch as action takes place instead of trying to help in what ever situation is happening.

its like when people were ignoring or stayed silent about what was happening to jewish people during ww2 or during civil rights movements. A silent/complicit crowd enables bad things to happen/continue to

This idea of the silent or complicit crowd connects to how for centuries majority of our population people either accepted ir ignored the brutality of slavery and later segregation. A lot of americans allowed or didnt speak up for these systems and they continued longer than they should have

what being silent can do

The crowd represent tragedy.

jarieliso2789 — 2025-04-30 22:53:30 UTC

Because they're curious and want to see drama.

jarieliso2789 — 2025-04-30 22:56:21 UTC

This reflects real-life bystander behavior by showing how people often like to watch accidents or emergencies without actually helping.

jarieliso2789 — 2025-04-30 22:59:37 UTC

The silent crowd connects to history in events like the civil rights protests, where many people just stood by while others suffered. It shows how being in a group can make people less likely to act or speak out against injustuce.
