Accountability and Common Sense

I just recently saw a video posted onto someone's facebook account.. and I have to say.. I was horrified at what I saw. This person posted a video of a dog, and a kitten who was chained up, and yes the dog attacked and killed the kitten! Of course my insides became enraged with such anger. And yes, I reported the video to facebook, but took it one step further.. I went to this person's info, and they had listed where they live so then I googled the nearest spca to the person and reported to authorities as well. Who knows what will happen. One can only hope that they can track him with his IP address. Seeing how there is so much information that is shared via the wonderful world wide web, have you seen the latest on the smart phones and how you can be tracked to your location via a picture you post on the web. I am just dumbfounded at the evilness of people in this world. At just how many sick (insert really bad word here) there are out there!.. When did we lose the accountability?? when did we become so stupid? how is it that something that should be used for information, can be construed to promote evil and harm!.. It truly saddens me... my hope in humanity..our ability to have compassion.. common sense .. where did it go?? Do we think we are anonymous when it comes to posting such horrific images?? do we really think we can do whatever we want, or feel.. without regards to others?? what has happened to humanKIND!!! where is the KIND!!!

So then it brings me to the next step.. how are we to protect our children from seeing such images.. ? is there such a thing as internet police? sure we have avenues to go after the pedophiles..sure we can use nanny net to protect certain websites from being accessed from underage kids.. but we all know they are easily to navigate around..

as you can tell.. I am still very angry.. and completely disgusted at what is available online.. and please please don't give me this "it's our right".. freedom of speech bs! you may be able to say it..but what gives YOU the right to take away MY RIGHT to not have to view such horrific images and videos!!!

Where is the responsibility.. the accountability.. and good old common sense!??
