France Shoot-Out

[Greyblades]

For someone who is so emotionally affected by the "war on men", it is quite strange to say that actually dead people do not bother you. And it seems quite cold in general, not something I would advertise about myself. Most parents and other normal people are always affected by pictures or even stories of dead children, there is nothing wrong with that even if they were not sheltered.

War on men?

I stopped being moved by the idea of dying children when the oxfam/cafod brigades showed up yearly in my primary school's assembly, started snapping thier fingers and saying "every three seconds a child dies of hunger", turned the death of those I dont know from a tragedy to a statistic. Not that it needed help as the sheer scale of the world makes getting worked up over every death becomes both unhealthy and pointless.
Pictures stopped bothering be somewhere between the holocaust and vietnam photos.

I'm sure seeing it in person would disturb me, I am told you can never be prepared for the smell of death, but stories and pictures of death in far off lands do not generally illicit a reaction beyond "this again?"

You'd have to be pretty sheltered to NOT still be affected by a pic of a dead body, especially a kid.

...No... you cant be desensitised by a lack of awareness
