Analysis: Killing
When you look at how many dead during a genocide it is easy to think about how horrible that is. But It's not often that we consider how bad the killing itself is, and the murders. I believe that the real shame isn't in how many dead but seeing that much of how evil raw human nature is, and how quickly millions and millions of men, who have both good and evil in them, can so quickly turn evil and kill so many so brutally. When you see men doing such horrid actions, it's hard to even see them as men with anything but evil in them.

ReplyDeleteI think that what you have said is so true, however this thought gave me the thought that on the news we make the biggest deal about a murder of one person. But there are genocides where hundreds of thousands of people had died but many many people have no idea existed. For example before this project i had no idea there was a Cambodian genocide but i soon learned that 750,000 people were killed. I guess it shows that if a human is not immediately affected by something and it is not their main priority then they are not inclined to help.
