ISIS and gays. (Very distressing reading)

[Steve]

Until a few hundred thousand of human race decide they want to actually do something about this there's no sense in me wasting my time about it. When and if they really decide to take any sort of action of to solve problems I'll be around to help.

I think the media headlines haven't spurred people to action the way they once might have. People became complacent about the horrors of ISIS and even more so about the victims of that religion, especially when they read about them on a near daily basis. Our best intentions include bringing back that little girl they threw acid on, raising charity money for her multiple surgeries, and bring the media to focus on the vileness of the atrocity for a week of two. Then the public heaves a sigh of relief knowing it has done the right thing and washes its hands of the other daily victims of that kind of rabid religious fervor. People became overwhelmed and then resigned when confronted with the truth. More so since it wasn't happening right before their eyes. A wrong has been righted and, well, we've shown them, haven't we?

Sigh.

I agree with you and I think I understand your wariness about talking to people. You can only beat your head against the wall so many times before exhaustion sets in. I couldn't cope with what you've probably seen. I'm just not that emotionally strong.

Waiting for those thousands to rise up and do something is a little like waiting for the other shoe to drop. Sort of like waiting for the next Pearl Harbor.
