Lake Day - On Sunny Waters #307

I was walking on the shore when I seen this couple with two kids sitting around a picnic table. One kid smack the other kid upside the head and laughed while the get that got smacked cried, the mother asked what happen and the smaller kid explain that the bigger brother slap him upside the head so the mother asked why he did it and the gibber kid said because he was picking his nose again. The mother told the younger kid not to pick his nose and didn't say anything to the older kid for the way he handled it.

To me this stuck me as....off for the lack of a better term? I see this a lot with adults in day to day life and to me it's just looking for an excuse to treat people bad. This falls in line with vigilantism, to justify your self to be a bad actor to a selected group that you think no one will defend is like a loop hole to be a bad actor as long as you do it to them only. We see this kind of behavior on a much larger scale with politics and thus the term Genocide was born back in 1944 when Raphael Lemkin coined the word in a book he had wrote about the Nazi policies of systematically destroying national and ethnic groups. Granted Hitler wasn't the first and surely wont be the last however it shows you the kind of thinking that goes on before it gets to that level of action. It starts with the children and they grow up to act out the way they know how unless they learn a better way to deal with people they don't agree with or see eye to eye with.

My take on the subject is to treat everyone with a common respect even if understand or agree it doesn't give me permission to be a bad actor just because I think I see one. A better person would try to figure out a positive way to handle things at first because you have laws that restrict any big bad actor activities. A few things call for human intervention, lets say someone tried to kidnap some one else well it's logical you would step in and defend the person being attacked. So the subjects and lines are always changing because to be honest while humans in ways are simple and repetitive they are also complex and unpredictable.

I know some people may agree or disagree or perhaps they have a better way of dealing with this kind of subject and if so please post it down below because you can make a difference .

Anyways that's my deep thoughts for the day.
