The world is getting worse.
Stabbings for dirty windows
Babies being killed for crying too much
Kids being used as suicide bombers
People dying for not being muslims
People being shot when just doing their shopping.
Bottom line is, keep your eyes down, crack on with your business and hopefully non of that would happen to us
It's not getting worse and worse; it's getting better and better - fact!

You are less likely to die a violent death today than at any other time in human history. In fact, violence has been declining for centuries.
We don't have superpowers trying to kill each other anymore; a first in a few thousand years.
And lots of other reasons.
Our perception might be that 'things are getting worse', but that's down to 24/7 media.
You could use that arguement plus the use of media etc etc. However, you can not deny how things apear to be getting worse in general. Teens killing teens for instance, or do u remember the 2yr old being tortured and paint poured on him and killed (james bulger). The suicide killings where it was a youngster doing it or the death sentence carried out by youngsters.
If like me, were not shocked anymore by the horrific news reports, what does that say..
