the point of that journal was to make ppl think about stuff instead of just believing what tv says, its never bad to question things
You should express yourself more clearly then. This implies that you no longer think area 51 etc is bullshit and that your eyes were opened by some random youtube vids. :p
Anyway good thing I got it wrong then!
also
scares me too

i just think its intesting to actualy see happen & learn about these things, so i figured, why not share it with the ppl on crossfire..
ive actualy seen something simular happen to an old lady a few months ago, she was being harassed in the station & no1 helped here, when we interfiered alot more ppl came to help
also i dont learn about this stuff in school & i dont read books about this whatsoever
but very cute try on the insult tho :)
Our society constantly tells us to mind our own business, cause if we dont we get punished.
It's the way we're raised my media and the school.
If you really are interested about why the daily humans are the way they are you should start thinking about what kind of information and signals media sends out. cause media is one of the big roles in why daily humans gets more and more twisted.
& i am indeed intrested in why ppl do what they do
and by kids i mean 7-18 yo
loads of times ive seen kids in supermarkets screaming GET OFF ME GET OFF ME HELP. to the parent just so the parent will give in and buy them the sweets they want.
if i saw a kid screaming that i would just think the dad didnt buy the kid what they wanted so the kids screaming shit. to many times ive seen that happening so...
but obviously in this screnario its pretty clear the man came from nowhere and grabbed the girl and the people who are watching are all actors. if i saw a random man grab a kid like that in the street from nowhere id knock him out where he stands though.
but thats the sad thing rly, ppl just asume
or just dont want to get involved cuz they are doin smthin els
like i said i see kids doing exactly that in the supermarket, you realy going to go and start laying into the parent because your not sure if hes kidnapping the kid or not. id get arrested once a week rofl.
and frankly it would then look like you were beating up the dad to then steal the kid urself haha.
but in cases where its rly obvious i doubt most ppl will do anything :(
but think about it this way, the exact moment the dad grabs the kid noone will be paying attention, so the initial grab wasnt thought of anything. then soon as teh screaming starts then people turn and see whats going on. so all people see is a man pulling a kid along with the kid screaming.
the amount of times when i was like 5 that i did shit like that is ridiculous, im glad that people didnt step in because id have to witness my mum/dad getting beaten by a stranger.
