Why are the men in this world losing it??

I would like to know if you think men are under too much stress or too violent? What is it??

I feel that a lack of compassion, empathy and opportunity as well as society's overall closed-mindedness is driving certain individuals to react violently.

That and the recent upsurge in weapons & ammunition sales are huge contributors to these deadly outbursts.

A working class hero is something to be...

It is a serious problem that needs a serious solution.



I don't think we even know where to start. It's been happening as long as humans have existed.

exactly.

Honestly, I think the Western World thinking is of the mindset of "entitlement" and that is why people can't deal with what they have. BTW, "what we have" is one hell of alot if you stop to think about it. People need a reality check and should stop feeling sorry for themselves.

heheh - if you can afford weapons and ammo, things can't be all THAT bad .

What about women? You know, the ones who drown their babies in a lake, or cut off their arms and legs while singing "Amazing Grace"?

It's not a "men" thing, it's a HUMAN thing, coupled w/ evil.

In a world that "celebrates diversity", everyone has become a clone, and feelings are mass produced in a process of brain-washing the people into believing whatever they'll eat up. Humanity has gotten lost in the haze of self-help books, and 8 minute fixes. Yet silently, while we all look like "we're just being ourselves" on the outside, trouble is brewing inside.

The opposite of war isn't peace, it's creation.

The difference to me is women dont go out and have killing sprees killing lots of random people for whatever reasons, and there are very very few women serial killers.. but yes, women do kill, but its usually their children or husband...which to say that seems like im saying its better or different in some way...which it isnt... idk..... Its all sad and its something most of us will NEVER understand...

I am assuming that when you say "men", you are referring to humans in general, not just men. With that being said ( I had to clarify that to make sure this isn't a sexist thread), I believe that the level of stress is HUGE, and, I don't condone violence but some people don't know any better so that is what they resort to. There are other options for relaxing oneself (another story for another time), but it is unexcusable to be violent. If this IS directed towards men, then I have to say that it is WOMEN that drive us to insanity. There you have it!

The world is going to hell in a hand-basket.

True, but why would a woman in her right mind stay with someone who is violent towards them? I have a hard time finding sympathy for those who stay in an abusive relationship. Get the Hell out if he is beating that azz!
