Re: Shocking scenes as passers-by ignore dying toddler, 2, in China
I hope so but judging by the responses not likely.
The point was it neccessary to put the link there if the "ghouls" want to see it they can easily find it as shown by the other ghouls. Thats my point and the only point!
If you want I can send you links to all the ghoulish sites of all the terrible things that happen in the world it was enough that Castro informed us of the news the link was highly unneccessary.
Wow what a bunch of ghouls then try and justify everything by saying its alright to post this because its for the common good. Yes we should become less sensitive and we should put horrific scenes every where because its the norm. Then patronise the whole process by going off point and discussing how good you are??? Well let me tell you this watching and wanting to watch a child die is ghoulish. There is a little bit of you good people who have a little medieval touch to you you cannot but resist to see these ghoulish parts of the world and your curiosity gets the better of you because you prefer to see to believe. After all it is for the common good bloody ghouls!
I think it is natural that this news story is resulting in a discussion of helping those in need. Perhaps one could argue that that discussion should take place on a different thread, rather than this one, which specifically references the child from China.
Each person's willingness to help others in need, and each person's definition of what constitites "in need" varies. How is reflection upon and discussion about one's feelings, experiences, and opinions toward helping others a bad thing?

It was a bona fide link to the news story, nothing more, nothing less. There are enough people posting on this forum with "I've heard such and such..." or "Someone told me this and that..." with absolutely nothing substantial to link it to.
The video was part of the news report. Watch it if you want, don't watch if you feel it not appropriate. Otherwise, get over it and post something useful...

Nils What is Trolling? disagreeing with the majority then I happily troll in this case.
If you feel everyone is justified to watch the death of a child on this forum go ahead enjoy and cry and moan about it like you really care and call it freedom of expression. If you dont really see the point I am trying to make then you have become de-sensitized its a link anyone can find why post it?
I call it ghoulish and the same people slow down and make traffic jams at accidents on the road because they just have to go at snail pace to see if they can see any bodies or blood.
I will end on that note and hope I get lot of thanks for ending

Lots of humans have transformed into a system controlled money grabbing creatures who won't care more or less about saving another human life just to not miss a business meeting, going to work, make few extra bucks or even have a coffee break....this is the reality, it's sad but it's totally true

I didn't, and won't watch the video. I've been on the Internet long enough that I've seen my share of shocking things, but I don't want to watch a baby run over by a car. I certainly don't think that Castro is a ghoul for sharing the video though- it's a big deal and hopefully the shock of it will kindle some change.
And Castro is no fool- most people see a post with a bunch of words and are like,"boooring" clicky clicky video. So he put this:
Warning - Please be aware that this video is extremely distressing
I really don't get how that's not clear?

I don't think the child has actually died but is critically ill in hospital at this stage. Not that it makes it any better or palatable but perhaps we should stick with the known info and not start inventing stuff.
If this news story which is all over the international media goes some way to changing the way certain societies act in such a life or death situation I think it is justified.
Already there is great debate and much inner reflection on how the Chinese perceive themselves and are perceived by the wider world. If this causes a percentage of the population to step in and help someone in need and/or changes this draconian set of laws where the good samaritan ends up getting into trouble or somehow blamed then I would say it's the only good thing to have come out of this tragic case.
Keeping it buried is not going to change anything, is it?

Why or why did you have to end on an open question to me? Keeping it buried to you guys I dont think so... I believe you would have found this story even if it was buried.
Alas, I must say you make out this forum importance in global ethical debates more important than it is, its nice that you blabber about change and the difference it could make and fill up with some self indulgence of air. Nobody cares what you may believe its a link with a child dying, died , brain dead or whatever nothing you say or think is important its a video of a kid getting run over.
Society is not going to look at your comment and say or yeah sandgrounder said it was justifiable. Its a kid getting run over and if you want to find the link then its out there find it you dont need any help you all seem to be good at searching for these kind of things.

You are completely missing the point - of course nobody is going to read the opinions on this forum. This forum is just doing the same as millions of other people and debating the news story. Debate sometimes brings about change, good and bad. Sometimes things just stay the same.
Of course nobody cares what I think (well, except you, it seems) but this is a FORUM. Forums are where people discuss stuff. Why do you find that so difficult to deal with?
If you want to shop and gossip try Ebay and Facebook.
If you are so disinterested in debating, why are you constantly posting to this thread?
