Is there a law in your Virginia requiring a person to protect another person from harm?

Is there a law in your state requiring a person to protect another person from harm if it can be done safely? Should there be such a law?

No such law, unless there's a child or some other dependent involved. Even the police aren't legally obligated to protect any individual from harm, and can't be successfully sued by a citizen if they fail or refuse to render assistance.

Personally, I think we should prosecute all the mothers who allow their a$$hole boyfriends and husbands to abuse their kids and look the other way just because they're afraid to go out and get a job.

most will help but thats the police job.
