Two people see a marquee advertising the movie "Jurassic World." A newspaper headline nearby is about rage and anger between police officers and African Americans. Man: I think real life is primitive enough.

Just thinking of our deadliest drone being called “raptor”. Tearing bodies to pieces isn’t at all “prmitive”, it’’s very expensive and sophisticated, like $78 “Hellfire missiles” launched from raptors. Have we REALLY advanced socially from stone clubs?

Did you ever stop and think how less violent the world was before surveillance cameras and everyone and her kid sister taking videos on cell phones?
Life was much more peaceful before videos went viral on the web and all you had to look at was pictures in the newspaper. – Film at 11.

Reynard61; couldn’t get the link to work, but the real point is the inflationary spiral of weapons: it wasn’t long ago that a Hellfire was $54 K per copy, then I got the $78 k figure a couple months ago…
What’s also following a drastic inflationary spiral is the hate factor in America; whether race at home, or overseas, or religion- at home and overseas, the mostly right wing radical driven level of hate in America is our greatest tragedy. Whether police at home, or troops abroad, we have to send someone out to create more hate than they eliminate, and the media is there pumping up the fires to raise the balloon higher, but lowering the bar to outrage.
