If you'll notice, there is no shortage of outrage in this thread. This isn't part of just today's culture, occurances such as this is part of human culture throughout history. I would even make the uneducated guess that such things happen less nowadays than during other periods in our history. In the days of slavery and manifest destiny tragedy such as this was institutional and widely accepted, nowadays such things are largely isolated incidents.
