With headlines like this:

"6 Die in California Shooting"

"Man Beheads Sister 5 in Front of Cops"

It's no wonder I try to avoid 'The News' - I used to be so happy I gave up watching TV - Perhaps now it's time for me to give up the Internet as well....not to 'cocoon' myself off or insulate myself...but really what is the point of reading all these horrific accounts of mans obvious tendency towards violence...

Man beheads sister.
VIDEO. Kerby Revelus beheaded his sister Mona in front of cops. Bianca was decapitated by Kerby in front of cops after law enforcement walked in to investigate Kerby’s earlier stabbing of sister Samantha. Then police had to restrain Kerby who went after a third sister Saraphina.

People have become so desensitized to violence in recent years it kind of scares me.

That's probably why gorefest movies like the Saw films are so popular. I've only been to one true gore film at the theatre in the last decade, and I was shocked to see children in the audience.

Maybe it's just the price we pay for a global media desperate for headlines and viewers?
