WORDS-VIOLENCE

                                                                            VIOLENCE

More random killings in Paris. It's almost a daily occurrence. The newspaper jumps from one story to the next. With each school shooting, each mall massacre, each street corner revenge, each misguided drone, humanity becomes less than what it could have been. An eye for an eye never makes life better, only more distant. We move away from the common good, toward the common bad. Before long, we accept the common bad as okay, something we can live with. This is the law of diminishing humanity. We sit back and slide, once again, into the primordial ooze.
