I haven’t been able to get that woman’s beating to death out of my head - it’s makes me feel sick every time I think of it or am reminded of it.

I haven’t been able to get that woman’s beating to death out of my head - it’s makes me feel sick every time I think of it or am reminded of it.
Over the years I’ve tried more and more accept the ways and traditions of the Middle East, thinking is it really our job to try to change their ways as though we’re the benchmark? How about our botched and blundered efforts in Afghanistan, at great financial and human cost; talk about luring people to trust us then slapping them on the face.
The bullshit excuses of, “she died of a heart attack” - ya think?! I’m sure did have a heart attack as she was being fucking beaten to death, and for what?
This whole thing makes me feel 90% of the social issues we have in the US come from the incredible success the country has had, now many are acting like spoiled children, whining about this or that - give me a break. Of course we have some problems, but most seem trite by comparison. We have it so good here, but human gripes seem insatiable. Rarely do you see or hear of appreciation for all we have, what all we’ve collectively accomplished - no, only for what we’ve done wrong; who’s without mistakes or sin? Damn few, if any. Ok, we aren’t perfect but in so many ways we are good people. Just think hard for a minute about what it would be like to be taken away and beaten to death, it isn’t a fast and humane process. Think hard about it, visualize it, feel it. Compare that to our “problems.” I’m not giving us a free pass, only asking to think about it all and to keep it in perspective.
