The heartless people are increasing
Posted: Jun 10, 2008 | Category: social issuesThe disturbing news that a 78-year old man who got hit and run in the middle of a crowded street in Hartford, Connecticut is all over the media and hearing about it is not only disturbing but also annoying. It was broad daylight and the poor man was not only hit by a reckless driver but none, as in none of the many pedestrians didn’t bother to help the old man. No one bothered to call 911 or even took a closer look at the man.
I mean, maybe if it was dog someone would be concerned as we are so absorbed in saving the animals. That is a noble thing but in this situation, it was a man, an old man who was innocently crossing the street when some driver just mindlessly drove and hit the old man.
Right now, Angel Torres is in critical condition in the hospital. What is the world coming into? Are we too engrossed in ourselves that we have set aside the basic universal responsibility of helping those who are in need? Here’s the video and hope we will all learn from it.
