Because the gravitational pull of the Earth is much larger than the gravitational pull of lets say... a human. You could argue that on earth there is a gravitational pull to humans, but the Earth is over powering that pull. So the object is pulled down (to the surface of the Earth) rather than to you or me.

Does the velocity of a star toward or away from earth determine measuring the shift of its spectral lines?
Yes. If the star is moving away from the Earth, its spectral lines will shift towards the red end of the spectrum. If it is moving towards the Earth, its spectral lines will shift towards the violet end of the spectrum. This is due to Doppler effect.
What direction does the angular velocity vector of the Earth's rotation point toward?
The Earth's angular velocity vector due to its axial rotation points towards the north pole.
Does gravity attract things towards the surface of the earth?
Gravity attracts things toward the core, or centre, of the Earth, that's how everything is able to stay on the surface.
Is the pull of things towards the center of the world?
Yes. The "pull" of things is gravity, and it pulls all objects downward, toward the center of the Earth.
Why do things move toward earth but not toward people?
