Thread Name: BS: that powerless feeling (sensitive topic)
Subject: RE: BS: that powerless feeling (sensitive topic)
I simply asked a question of a person who has form when it comes to heart-on-sleeve, that's all. Nothing wrong with a bit of that, sometimes. I don't have issues with discussing individual tragedies. I'd point out out that we do live in a world in which there are thousands of outrages involving the deaths of children all over the world every year, many perpetrated directly or indirectly as a consequence of actions by western nations. This one is a month old. In the intervening month, thousands of children have died who shouldn't have died. We could be talking about how we get back the power to do something about it. But fire away. That's my last post on this topic, and I only responded now because I appear to be under attack.
