    Angry So proud to be a human being...

    http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,294352,00.html

    This absolutely makes me sick to my stomach...
    You smell that? That's the smell of spring, and I love it. You know what I love to do in spring? I love to come out into the woods, to walk amongst the budding trees, to smell and taste the hint of renewal that hovers in the air like a heady perfume, and to listen to the song of the birds who have returned from their long sojourn south. And bury the people I killed during the winter...

    I would have gone out into the hall with a baseball bat and beat that m*ther f*cker until he was unconscious, then I would have called the police.

    It reminds me of the woman who died recently in a hospital emergency room, they ignored her while she was on the floor and she died there. Nobody helped.

    This world is full of sick b*stards.

    "Naturally, the common people don't want war, but they can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders.
    Tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and endangering the country.
    it works the same in every country."

    -Herman Goering, Hitler's Reichsmarschall, at the Nuremberg trials.

    It is sickening to the stomach to read something like this.

    Reminds me of the movie "The Accused" based on a true story,
    about a woman gang raped in the back of the bar, in front of
    a crowd of people and not one person lifted a finger to help her

    Reminds me of a case here in the UK many years ago, where a woman was being assualted on some stairs..

    She pleaded for help to people using the stairs - who had to work their way around her and the the assailant - as the attack continued...

    No one helped...
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Also similar to the Catherine Genovese case that occurred here in the US back in '64.

    Certainly, someone should have called the fuzz and let them sort it out.

    The problem with getting involved in something like this is that after you "take a ballbat" to the assailant, he might just turn around and sue the pants off of you, especially when the "victim" appears in court to testify on how you beat her boyfriend senseless after butting into an argument that was none of your business.

    Probably not the case in this instance, but these days you have to be real careful before deciding to play "hero".

    It's Bush's fault.

    I remember that one... I wasn't alive back then but something happened maybe five years ago and they were comparing whatever happened to Catherine Genovese and I just remember going WHAT... at that time I couldn't believe it now its just not that suprising
