dear moose,

Man, I saw that...and all I can think of is how horrible all those people are.
 
wow what the hell? and your telling me all those people didnt have a phone? i fear for humanity. if we cant help each other now what are we going to do in a serious situation?
 
Someone said, quite nicely too, that all the darkness in the world cannot put out a single candle; which is true. It is very hard to express this, and much harder as to why, but in the long scheme of things all this 'bad' or 'evil' is rather insignificant and humanity will be just fine. And as Hemingway said in For whom the bell tolls i think,

If we win here we will win everywhere. The world is a fine place and worth the fighting for and I hate very much to leave it.

Humanity is a dual concept, like everything else there is, and like the candle and the darkness one side is preferable than the other, but that is a mere illusion as the two are part of the same thing, they are united and without one there is not the other. Just like you cannot have objects without empty space. So lets not burn humanity.

dude, that was some deep philosophy stuff. My brain is starting to swell a lil' bit

what from what I understood, i agree with
 
Well put, Frank...and those are the people who make this world worth living in. I try my hardest to be that "candle in the dark", and hope other people do the same.
 
That's what our society has turned into, we don't want to admit it. People are too worried about themselves, they just assume someone else will help a man bleeding and dying on a busy street. I'm not saying EVERYONE does that, but a lot of people are like that nowadays. I hope this man makes a full recovery!
