Really?

I don't know part of me thinks it's well deserved.

Another part of me thinks that if we we more honest about the weakness of man and didn't politely skirt the issues of what make a life a waste of oxygen maybe there'd be more fear instilled into those that will the future of this earth.

or maybe I'm just mean.. dunno

I don't have empathy for addicts I guess - I find these people to be very weak and worse unworthy of living as someone else's burden because of their weakness.

All that just to feel good - I don't get it.
