“Gruesome Times!”

Do you remember an old black and white film from the  ’40s? The last scene made such an impression on me, it always pops up when, Today’s News Media,  continually keep the current tragedies going, without answering the  question  “Why”?

The scene is on  “death row”, a young man is in his cell with the Priest  – praying! The Mother allowed a last visit and standing outside the cell. She is crying and her heart breaking, asking, “Why son? Why?” The son walks close to the bars and calls his Mother over.  The son whispers,  “Mother come close  as I want to whisper something in your ear…  Closer!”

Then bites off her ear. Everybody is wanting to know, “Why?”  Why, did you do that to your Mother?  “Because, if you would have corrected me,  when I was a young boy,  I would not be here  Now!”

When all of   Today’s News  Media, flock  to the young person’s bizarre behavior,  giving the criminal…  exactly what they want – –   “15 minutes of  notoriety.”   Tomorrow’s news  will be even  worse,  the notoriety seekers are planning something bigger and more gross!
