Have You Noticed the News Stories Lately?
I have been shocked to watch the news lately. On Friday, there was the trampled Walmart worker, killed by Walmart shoppers. There was a shooting at a Toys R Us in California. A teenager killed herself because of an adult and teenagers making up lies on Myspace. There was a person who killed themselves on the Internet while others watched and did nothing. There was a huge terror attack in Mumbai, India. A woman went to a Brooklyn hospital for gallstones, ended up with sepsis because of improper care and lost part of her eyesight, her hands, and her feet. Casey Anthony likely murdered her two year old daughter and reported her abducted. A news anchor, Anne Pressly was brutally attacked in her home, and died a few days later. I mean the news has become so dark and depressing. I mean what is the world coming to?It really shocks me that we are now numb to these types of news stories. Were you surprised that Walmart shoppers killed a man and couldn’t even be bothered to sop shopping or help the man? I was not, how as humans can we act this way? It really upsets and saddens me.
The world is crazy and unfortunately will only continue to get worse. I heard the walmart associates tried to tell the shoppers to leave after the man had died and they continued to shop. That they said “I’ve been in line for 12 hours I’m not leaving” Such selfishness.
