Back when the whole "arab spring" uprising was first going on in Syria, I recall watching a video of the aftermath of a bombing raid on a civilian area. The strike hit a playground. I've seen a lot of rough stuff, but the sight those dead children lying about with hysterical parents crying shook me to my core. That will haunt my dreams for the rest of my life. I will never look at he world the same way again. How warped are western progressive priorities that a de facto pet lion's killing (after an UNNATURAL long life) engenders so much more emotion than the real human horrors of this world?I won’t make the obvious comparisons between there being no similar mass outpouring of grief over the hundreds of thousands dead in Syria, Iraq, Libya. Or mention the lack of global outrage at the ongoing abuse of human rights by the Mugabe regime in Zimabwe.
Huh. How about some pictures of the 10 Chadian fishermen who were decapitated that same week by Boko Haram? Guess their manes weren't long and luxurious enoughone way to get your picture up in lights..........
