I certainly belief Jesus taught we are obligated to help those around us. But I honestly think Jesus would have taught that the Good Samaritan should interfere to save the man, but peacefully. I don't even Jesus would want us defending ourselves from harm, let alone our neighbor. Jesus pretty much taught ultimate pacifism. In particular, I remember Him rebuking Peter for trying to save Him from the Romans by slicing off the centurion's ear.
