Am i too desensitized?

[concise]

No. It's ok to acknowledge that it's messed up.


But that doesn't mean you have to be shedding tears and having a crisis.

Probably.

When you really stop and put urself in that situation, ie visualising a dude walking into a room and shooting a bunch of unsuspecting little children at point blank range, and thinking about the parents going to pick their kid up only to be told their child is dead, and on top of that it being christmas time and them having their dead kids presents under the tree, etc.

I dont see how you could NOT feel like tearing up at least.

people die everyday breh

Those shootings were fukked up, but I don't do the whole "I'm outraged " white people thing. So that makes me look like an a$$hole to some people.

Basically. I dont know them

Doesnt make it any better but although i hate to say it...

PEOPLE DIE EVERY fukkING DAY.

Mindsets like this are exactly why we spawn so many mass murderers, ain't another first world country in the world that has this problem with such frequency.

Dont listen to these armchair psychologists. Until we're directly exposed to actual deadly violence no one can claim they are desensitized. You simply dont care; you dont "dogs in this fight". You said it yourself, "Im not a parent". Yeah you may feel upset but will this shooting prevent you from sleeping like a baby Will everyone else who's not directly effected by this tragedy have trouble sleeping?

When I was young I learned that empathy, true empathy, the kind of shyt that keeps you up at for nights after watching a genocide documentary/feed the children commercial, is rare. And for good reason too. Humanity has gone through so much shyt in our brief time here that if most stopped and fell apart at ever tragedy, we'd fail as a species. shyt like this inevitable. If "sensitized" means being overwhelmed with emotions when this shyt happens, we'd be in catatonic states after watching world news reports.


You're normal breh
