WTF and DV

What is it with the world these days, is human life really that cheap now? Some guy has his throat slashed by three guys so they can steal his skates? Seriously?
Another guy gets shot and killed at work because he allegedly annoyed the wrong person and had a hit called on him?
Another guy gets shot multiple times at home, yet another at work?
A guy gets beaten with a bat by people who burst into his house in the early morning?

I mean, come on.... I know I've said before that the world is going to hell in a hand basket - between weather, earth activity, government, loss of liberty, wars, yadda yadda yadda, but apparently that's not enough, people are queuing up for those hand baskets to hell. Sheesh.

Oh and btw pretty sure I know why three cop cars and an ambulance were outside my place (not AT my place, using the parking lot outside) and it gives me reason to once again mention that Domestic Violence, by anyone, against anyone is NOT acceptable. Period. And every person who knows of, sees or suspects that someone is being abused or abusing someone else, and remains silent is enabling and validating the abuser and doing jackshit for the victim.

Calgary has one of the highest rates of Domestic Violence and abuse in Canada and everyone who stays silent or looks the other way is helping keep that record.

And don't give me crap about not getting involved.... Domestic Violence is not acceptable, Silence is NOT an option. Pet peeve ya know.
