im embarressed by "Boston Strong" after the bombings

[M617]

bombings are constant in Syria among many other places and Nigeria just had one today that killed 71....seeing t shirts and constant news coverage over a couple of vigilantes that killed less people on your hand is overkill

sure it was bad and one hell of a news story with all the events that happened with it but its far from making a city strong. its a money grab

the "anniversary" is tomorrow btw

[CrimsonTider]

tbf, Americans don't care about foreign tragedies.

The only reason We care about the Malaysia aircraft is because its a mystery.

Exactly, I'm FROM Nigeria and I don't think T/S is making a good point. Americans should be applauded for how much they value human life. If you live in a country where a lot of people die and it's not a big deal.....that's not really a good thing

How so? One person is killed and it makes the news. You can't tell me as a whole Americans don't value human lives. People are murdered so often in third world countries that it's not even newsworthy.

You guys are essentially Romans upset because Rome uses it's army to control the world. How many Global empires have existed throughout history that DIDN'T have an aggressive military force?

They all did. But that still doesn't negate the fact that we have killed over one hundred thousand innocents in the last decade

You know how it is

American tradagies are always


















Blown outta proportion

I'm not saying it does, but why do you think you live the way you live? Do you realize how much of the world's resources you use as a nation? Why is your biggest problem that Netflix doesn't update its movies enough while grown men in the third world don't know what they will have for dinner tonight?

Yes...but this country is built on the monetary gain from the indirect deaths of others in third world countries. I can't forget about economic manipulation of third world economies to from the IMF (not neccesarily solely American, but Western really).

It's only a tragedy when American lives are lost...anywhere else...no one cares.
