To the People Who Take Videos of Disturbing Things
You make me lose faith in humanity
I love that Facebook now blacks out disturbing videos and you have to click to uncover it (or something like that). But at least they warn you it’s disturbing.
Thank you Facebook.
However, such is not always the case and Facebook misses the odd one. And every now and then a friend will post said disturbing video. And like the curious cat I am, I click play.
And then I am absolutely horrified followed by being ashamed of myself for using up 3 minutes of my life watching this disgusting video. I usually try to hang on to the end in hopes that there is some text saying ‘this person has been caught and went to jail’.
Well that never happens.
To the douchebag who posted the last video
So the other day, scrolling mindlessly, another one of these videos came up. Someone from inside a house, behind a window and a curtain was filming some lady just outside in a courtyard, beating her very small and young daughter. The child may have been 4 or 5 years old.
Ya.
I’m not going into detail about it. It’s disturbing. ‘nuff said.
