Wow.
I'm all for standing up and defending yourself. But some of those look like outright murder of someone for the "crime" of riding a motorcycle.
Again, if you are being attacked, sure, run them down or shoot back.
But an earlier clip seems like a car just waiting for a bike to hit, and the last one, no way the car driver knew a crime had happened.
I wonder if some of these are gang vs. gang violence
It's troubling to me that real interpersonal violence, regardless of whether the victims are criminals, is becoming entertainment, even though, to some extent, it has existed throughout history in the form of public executions.
It just seems that we are rapidly devaluing life and I can't imagine the effect it will have on our spirit.
That being said,
give me your worst...
60-million unborn children would like to say hello.
Of course. I believe it is Mother Teresa who said something to the effect of "if we devalue life in the womb, we will come to devalue life outside of the womb," of which nothing compares to abortion.
But, there can be more than 1 factor contributing to devaluing of life of which I question the rise in social media depicting violence as entertainment.
It's not like that is an unusual, or even original, thought - see Arnold Schwarzenegger in The Running Man.
