Man throws 3 y/o, then himself, from roof of 52 story building

Sorry, OP......but I feel compelled to post this as a counter.

Bad shit makes the news......good shit happens so much more often than bad shit.....but it is not news....because it is NORMAL.

I will shamelessly take this very sad thread and try to turn it into a good news thread. My apologies.

Scruffy Vancouver panhandler's random acts of kindness

That's really wonderful. We decided against gifts for each other again this year and instead gave money to the food pantry and to a homeless shelter we've kind of adopted the past few years. They also take in battered women and children - just really incredible program.

I was thinking about all the single parents, mostly women, who schlog through all the crud this world throws at them - poverty wages and dead beat dads being among the worst - and they still get up every day and take care of their kids.

And, people who work full time but have to live in their cars. And people who just keep looking for jobs, even though the odds are against them.

We humans have got to do a better job of taking care of our own. There's no reason for children to go to bed hungry. Or, not even have a bed to sleep in. We're humans. We're supposed to be better than this.

There is a level of hell reserved for those who help the poor to make themselves feel better.
