I was thinking about the children in other countries as this happened. A universal evil.

The children in the photo are better than we as a nation are.

The fact that these kids halfway around the world are sending their sympathy for our tragedy...or the fact that no, we (as a country) don't feel their pain - and pretty much don't give a flying fuck - when schools filled with little black/brown children get blown/shot up.
