Why are people like this? (2 Viewers)

We all like to think that we, and the vast majority of our acquaintances are good people. There was a time that videos of abhorrent behavior were uncommon enough to be news worthy. Now such behavior is so common that it seems as though people pay no attention to it just like they will walk right by a homeless person.

Without going back and digging up a bunch of terrible behavior articles/videos I suggest confining them to this one thread. If you don't want to see it. Keep walking. I'm sure that it'll all go away if we ignore it.

To begin: Two restaurant owners assault an autistic guy because they don't want his service dog inside.

There was a time that videos of abhorrent behavior were uncommon enough to be news worthy because there weren't enough cameras to capture it. Nowadays just about everyone walks around with a video camera.

Because we live in a a society where a 2-year old child with a genetic condition needs a $20,000.00 wheelchair and his parents insurance company won't pay, so a local community college robotics class built him one-for free. We laud these folks rightfully as good people, but fail to turn the spotlight on this abhorrent health care system that always, always puts profits before people, thus ensuring that this situation is the rule, and not the exception.

Just to play The Beatles’ Advocate:

Is it an ordinance/law in Kitchener, ON that all restaurant patrons with service animals must show the license that was requested?

The article never states if/why the person never produced it when asked to.

BTW, I’m all for legit service animals

Kind of like littering. Those who have no respect for themselves have no respect for the environment or other people.

This is disturbing. Former NFL running back Zach Stacy shows the world what it is to be a failure.

Yes. That's the only thing he knows. If you're weak you get abused.
