when I see things like this, which is all the time, I am reminded of two things.
One is the Talking Heads "same as it ever was. same as it ever was."
and then I realize that it is NOT the same as it ever was. the fact that our modern world is so connected (except in north korea and other such places) news travels very fast, and incidents of genocide, and terror, and brutality do not last decades any more. horros used to last centuries!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is truly a more enlightened age (to use a hackneyed term) that we live in, but all our human failings are still with us.
we must also remember, women are still beautiful, ice cream is still delicious, and sticky weeed still gets ya high.
