This generation

why do we feel the need to endanger someone’s life because, we think taking a picture and capturing a video is more important? I just watched a video on Instagram of some girl taking a video of her infant baby in a moving car, out of his car seat. The first thought that came to my mind was, “wow this parent must be young”, because I don’t see anyone in my age group that would do something so reckless, irresponsible and plain stupid.

We are letting cellphones and social media take complete control of our lives these days because, people do anything and everything to get the views. Anything for the views, even endangering a innocent soul. I just don’t get it, that’s your baby who you claim to love but have no problem risking his precious life? It’s very disappointing to see videos like this.

It’s also disappointing to watch people take videos of a fight instead of helping. I literally watched a video of some girl literally jumping ontop of another girl, and the other girl was heaving. This girl was jumping on her boobs and chest. I felt extremely bad, because I’m watching this video and that poor girl that’s getting jumped on, didn’t have enough energy to get that person off of her because she couldn’t breathe. And the person filming the whole thing, thought it would be cool to just stand by and record the whole thing without trying to help. This world is seriously disappointing.

I don’t know if you guys heard about the Sienna case. Sienna was a 16-year-old new mother. She just gave birth to her daughter months before getting murdered by another 16-year-old. Sienna met up with this other girl to have a fist fight. You know how teens are, they disagree with one another or one spreads a rumor or just talk a whole lot of crap about that person and to solve the issue they fist fight.

Well this was supposed to be another fist fight. But as Sienna arrived at this girls place, the other girl comes out with a knife hidden behind her back and when Sienna threw the first punch, the other girl starts going crazy and stabbing Sienna multiple times. As Sienna is getting stabbed multiple times, she is trying to run away while her friend records the whole thing and the stabbers dad, mom and brother stand around doing nothing. Siennas friends that were in the car rushed her to the hospital where she sadly dies from her wounds and the murderer and her family helped clean up the crime scene.

This happened some time last year and the murderer is still running around free and bragging about how easy it is to get away with murder. They keep pushing the trial back for what ever reason and this 16-year-old is still free, while there are other people in prison for crimes they didn’t even commit, but this girl is free after stabbing someone to death.

This is the world we live in. Where We rather see eachother die instead of see eachother thrive. This is the world we live in where we rather take pictures and videos of something terrible instead of helping, and I’m not saying jump into a fight where someone is using a knife or gun or any other dangerous weapon. But it doesn’t take much to dial 911 on the same phone your recording on.

We cry about change but then do nothing to change. The change doesn’t start with the government, the state or the laws, no the change starts with US. We need to come together despite the many differences instead of constantly being divided. Something that certain groups of people want so they can control us to the point where we don’t fight back, because we are too busy fighting and killing eachother. It’s time to wake up and see things for what they really are and start standing up for those who can’t stand up for themselves.
