It's hard to imagine why anyone would condemn ole Bob for choosing to do more. He proudly displayed that he's not a coward and believes in right vs. wrong.
No one's condemning him. Folks are simply pointing out that he didn't need to put him or his daughter at risk at that point. And while he may have been willing to accept the consequences of his action, the owner of the RV, his daughter, and his daughter's mother may not have been willing to accept those consequences.
This is where most people fail - considering what all the other people impacted by their actions want/can handle. It's more than just your personal desire to stop the bad guy - what can your family handle? What can the victim handle?
Who gives a hoot what the victim can handle. A little pain may straighten them out.
