Reading comments in this and other similar threads have gotten me thinking. More than half the people here are either upset by, disturbed by or cannot continue reading these kinds of articles. I, on the other hand, read it without any sort of emotion short of an occasion "damn". Now, is that me being desensitized by pop culture and movies or is it just the way I perceive things? Same with the puppy video. No strong reaction one way or another aside from an audible comment of "poor animal" which did not carry any emotional follow-up on my part.
Hmmm, just typing out loud.
Carry on.
