I remember those photos of some of our soldiers and that Somali boy, and the resultant outcry. Horrible. Didn't they kill him too, by torturing him?  
it does seem that some people have become desensitized to stories of human suffering and yet you will always get a big reaction to a story of animal suffering. I think this is a normal reaction though, we don't know how to process it. |
I agree with all of this....and I agree the reaction may be normal...it certainly is not natural and we should all seek to keep it from remaining normal.
