Your heading said it all, that's a mouth-full.

I used to be a news junkie. I had to go off the stuff as if I were on a diet. Now I watch and read in moderation. I take a current events quiz every Friday and my scores are exactly what I got when news was a 24/7 addiction. There's a great deal of stress in my life, things I cannot fix or change,so I seek peace and joy wherever I can.
I still think that knowing what's going on in the world is an essential responsibility of citizenship in a democracy. However, I don't need to hear the same grotesque stories again and again. During the tragedy in WI last night, they announced there'd be no update until morning. I turned it off.

I think people just don't care enough about others, not all ,but so many, it really does effect me, so many are just out for themselves, evil has always existed, we all know ,but we hear about it in real time.

In all of these thousands of years, we really haven't evolved into a more overall peaceful existence.
One would think, with all of the available education (via the internet), etc., that we would have taken a step or two forward and upward.
Well, all we can do is hope. Be kind and helpful to others.
Have empathy regarding various polarized issues, and do our best to get along with one another.
Life is short, after all.

Thanks so much @Porcelain.
I'm glad to know you too!
And I will try to remember that about the caring. Many have told me that. A wise woman told me how can I help others if I crumble about every sad thing, but to remain strong.
So I try.

I think people that are unbalanced to begin with get ideas from the News or Movies like those kids did in Colorado years ago. It seems like that was the start of it. It is very sad that some people give little regard to life of another. There are so many murders in Chicago killing children almost daily. I say call in the National Guard and put and end to the gangs in Chicago.

The "information age" age hasn't all been the awe and blessing we expected. I always try to remember that before we didn't have so much access to a mountain of news like today and I try to always keep that in mind.
Every smile, every kindness adds light to the world.
