What The Hell Is Wrong With This World?

OK, we all know that Michael's message is clear - that we have to change the world. He also had the message about people changing themselves, in Man In The Mirror Michael sings "If you want to make the world a better place take a look at yourself and then make a change."

Some may wonder what the fuck I am going on about and why the hell I am even quoting Michael. Some think that I shouldn't even be associated with anything that he is associated with. But all will become apparent eventually.

Over at MJHD.NET forum member, O-Drey-O, who had an encounter with some homeless person. Her story is:

"This morning, on my way to college, I was waiting for the tramway, the station was full of people. Homeless persons usually come to ask for money , usually I give them some , even if I know that some will buy beer or such things… I can’t stand seeing people in the street. Anyway,today one came to me and asked me if I had something to give him. Unfortunately, I had absolutely nothing this time so I apologized and said no. He insisted, I told him that I hadn’t anything again. Then he got angry and cursed at me in front of all the people, and then punched me in the face. I fell on the floor, and he left. But it was not even that which hurt me the most. The behavior of people around me hurt me even more. I understand that they could me scared, but they didn’t even move to help me to get up, or not even ask me if I was ok! They just pretended they hadn't seen anything, yet I was just in front of them, on the floor!"

Nice to see people fucking stand around and do nothing while someone is assaulted. What the fuck is wrong with these people? What is wrong with this fucking screwed up world where people will stand by and watch this sort of shit happen?

In 1964, Kitty Genovese was stabbed to death in New York. Various neighbors watched this attack from the safety of their homes. Until eventually one neighbor called the police. 46 years later and nobody has learned anything. Apathy still rules the majority. People unwilling to get involved. I'm not saying people should put themselves in danger, and in the case of Kitty Genovese, I wouldn't suggest going to tackle some psycho who later admitted to three murders either. But come on, anyone of the neighbors could of come out of their safe little houses and started shouting, possibly scaring the attacker off, possibly saving a woman's life. We as people are no longer neanderthals we know the difference between right and wrong. So why are so many willing to do nothing when something like this goes on?

On the same thread, Anjibad recounts a similar experience:

"Last week in the bus tunnel, here in Seattle, a high school girl got jumped by a few people and she was down on the ground and they were kicking her in the head!! The worst part is there were two cops standing right there watching it happen. Someone got it all on tape!!! They said they weren't allowed to intervene, because they were hired for private security!!! What they hell are they there for then?!!!! The whole city is outraged!! The girl is ok, thankfully!! I really hope those aholes get canned!!!!! It really is unbelievable what this world has come to!!! I'm sorry you had to see it up close and personal!!!"

So it wasn't their job? Fucking lame excuse for human beings. A person is more important than any job. Fucking lame people in a uniform but not the balls to fill the uniform. If they don't get canned their boss/supervisor should be fucking put against a wall and shot for allowing such pussies to be calling themselves security guards.

Anyway forum member Doll comes on with this piece of useless advice: "Well...it was really sad what happened to you...but remember, they are only human, and they make lot's of mistakes...The man who hurt you....forgive him...he has a sad soul, unfortunatelly...and somehow he needs to "heal" himself first."

Fuck that shit. Forgive him? Why? Forgive him for being an asshole? I don't think so. All this forgive and forget shit is why people stood around and did nothing. The world is in a state of Apathy, with fewer and fewer people willing to stand up and be counted.

If the homeless guy doesn't know right from wrong that is his problem not O-Drey-O's problem. Fuck forgiveness. Should we have released Jeffery Dahmer because he had a sad soul? He only killed 17 people (at least) you never know he might learn the error of his ways and we can forgive him. I'm sure there would be a cue of people wanting to forgive him and let him live right next door.

This world has got to stop giving people excuses for wrong actions. It is fucking ridiculous that we are meant to feel sorry for these assholes for what they have done. Other people go through exactly the same thing and don't turn into assholes. Not everyone from a broken home becomes a robber. Want to know why, because some actually think before they act. Next time you see some punk in court charged with raping a 78 year old crippled woman (not Five) think about if it was someone you knew that he raped, your mother or your grandmother. Would we as people still want to be so forgiving? Still want to pity him because he grew up in a single parent home?

Fuck Apathy. Fuck Excuses. Every single person is accountable for their actions.

Peace.

The world needs one big wake up/shake up. Where has all the loving and caring gone - MIA.

Thank you - we can make that change.

Excellent post, Dog! I know you care about others just from this post alone.

I agree.
With all the forgiving and excusing going on, people forget about responsibility, self responsibility 'I stabbed you in the back? Oh djeezes, I'm sorry but my mum gave me house arrest and I got mad, so I couldn't help myself...' Yeah yeah, it's always someone else's fault, or because of some rotten circumstances in life....pfff

Hate people who lack any form of responsibility... you know if you burn your butt, you just have to sit on the blisters (I'm on one of those crash diets right now, my butt is fading away rapidly....rofl)

Before you even brought up the Kitty Genovese case, her name and the term "bystander effect" immediately came to mind when I first started reading this post.

Excellent post TB, and thank you for this contribution. I completely agree with everything you said. I read O-drey-O's post and having to imagine her enduring the pain, humiliation, and feeling of not a soul caring about her plight, put knots in my stomach. And yet her spirit is unscathed and triumphant. She is amazing for that and has my deepest admiration.

Fuck those who don't stand up for their fellow human beings. Fuck people who turn around and walk away. ~Fuck people who stand outside the fire.~

Brilliant post, Conspiracy! See, haters? He's not as sick in the head as you think, LOL... I knew you had this caring side in you, Dog. :)

I feel bad for O-drey-O. That must have really sucked. I unfortunately witnessed something like Anjibad - There was this group of people fighting right in the middle of the street and not far away was one cop just standing there watching, and not doing anything to stop the fight! I was shocked! I can understand if common people are too afraid to intervene, but if even the cops, who are supposed to have the means and the authority to do it, don't have the balls to intervene, who the hell is gonna protect us?

Our world is a freaking mess. Most people just go with the "It's-not-my-problem" attitude and pretend that they aren't seeing the shit happen, and that just makes me sad. Fear creates apathy, and apathy can be really dangerous... It's time to wake the fuck up and stop being a big fucking chicken.

Finnlady has lost her mind.. LMAOROFL!!

Finnlady77 said...

Haha.. Yes, many people behind those anonymous posts.. And who they could be.. :P Why do I have a feeling that I have met you "all" on the other forums.. You are so transparent that it's easy to recognise you.

Yes, my first language is Finnish and we say here "jealous to other women". But I'm deeply sorry that I made a mistake like that in my English and I believe you have hard time to understand. Your brains do not have too large capacity to work things out.

Do you know what.. People like you are the reason why other people and animals suffer in this world. Your world is just around you. Other people are stupid cows, right? You came to this blog just to call people with rude names, but you don't have anything else to say. That show your level of intelligent. You are so full of yourself that it's pretty easy to recognise you who you really are. And you are soooo jealous OF other women. That's so pathetic.. Get a life of yours..

Finnlady, just so you know I'm not one of the 'Anonymous' and I don't agree with everything. Just thought that the bouncing back between you and 'anonymous' (lol) was funny...
And for the record, I don't think you lost it...

i lived your post...think of all those murderers in jail right now....they declare themselves insane and say they didn't know what they were doing..yeah right, i mean they didn't know what they were doing but they did know how to grab a gun, knife or some other dangerious thing, they also knew that by hurting people they could kill them, they also knew that by stoping their actions their victim could still be alive...but no, they chose to continue with their plan....i do believe that those monsters of society are made, they're now born being evil...their environment feeds them..the thing is that they have the choice to be different..Michael even said it...kids need communication, love and support from their family(well not exactly his words)
