Every. Single. Time.
The lack of empathy is astounding.
If you need to picture your daughter, mother, sister or wife suffering this in order to empathize, you're already showing an alarming lack of empathy. And those were the "least bad" of the posts. Look at the collection of wisdom pearls:
"Something something the Warriors", "something something Kobe", "I don't see it as that horrible", "thank goodness it's only this", "karma for pop and his virtue signaling agenda", "celebrities dance naked", "people watch porn", "it's not traumatic cuz I wouldn't be traumatized"...
Beautiful, totally unexpected landscape we're painting. I'm more shocked than Philip J. Fry.
Or perhaps those that disagree with you aren't the ones displaying an ignorant worldview?
We all have mothers. If your mother was the pillar of virtue that you believe she is, you wouldn't be here to type your messages on an internet forum. Mothers aren't as naive as you think they are. They just pretend to be in front of their children. It's actually quite instrumental in the propagation of the species, ya know?
It's never a good thing when rational gives way to political. Border patrolling is a self-serving endeavor, don't think for a moment that others don't know this.
Personally, I find this collective reaction to be a far greater threat to society than one man's deviances. It is the mechanism by which a 19-year-old stumbling in an elevator turns into a massacre.
But if you are so bothered... you can all get together and form a committee. You can call it the
Committee of Public Safety.
