Sometimes I am left speechless of what humans are capable of. This makes me feel ill.

some people are monsters

People are stupid, it's not my fault.

That's pretty horrible. There was a case awhile back of an entire group of people standing by and watching a girl get raped. Not one of them tried to help her. People are a lot of things and the fact incidents like this can happen in a country that is supposed to be civilized and politically stable really makes me wonder.

People can be so cruel sometimes. It makes me lose faith in humanity when you see things like this happening.

Eiko 04-23-2011 08:40 PM

That is just not right.

I really hate these threads. 'I'm losing my faith in humanity' please.

This kind of stuff happens all the time and has been happening for centuries. It's a rough and terrible situation but let's not pretend like it's the breaking point for our society.

I'm with Stryker on this one. One isolated incident being blown way out of proportion. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that at least more than half of society turned out okay. Good enough, anyway.

Im curious, how is that story being ''blown out of proportion''?


This kinda thing really reminds you of how while most people are sane, there are some really sick, evil people out there. I think alot of people forget that. Hanging out on turtle forums and playing video games is fun and I sometimes forget the reality of this world and the species that run it.

Not the story, the people who claim this story is the reason they lose faith in humanity and whatnot.

There sure are sick people out there. Glad I live in a town where just about nothing ever happens.

Oh okay. Yeah, nothing really happens around these parts where I live. But one of the writers for the Thundercats did get chopped up or something like that like 30 mins away. Pretty freaky.:o

The people who lived in the town of Union in South Carolina must have said the same thing at one point, and then a local woman named Susan Smith goes and drowns her kids in a lake with her car.

Storm Wolf 04-26-2011 03:45 PM

I can't believ3e this happened in my hometown...just across the street. I knew this kid and his brothers. We used to hang out all the time in high school. It really brings it home when you knew the people. Something was very wrong with the people that did this and I hope they don't get turned loose after this. Sick people.

No....I haven't lost my faith in humanity but what is wrong with kids these days? Summerfield isn't a city or even close to one. What's with all the "gangster" attitude of kids living in small towns?

Just makes me shake my head.

shuriken 06-19-2011 09:58 PM

Pretty screwed up. My condolences to the family.

Leogeddon 06-23-2011 11:46 PM

Tragic story and there's many like it and even worst that you can find.
