Re: People who get angry over crimes they read about

[(Anonymous)]

Would you prefer a blase reaction or apathy in response to horrific, preventable atrocities? Would that be better? Anger is a natural reaction to reading something horrible if you are functionally empathetic. Sure, undirected, uninformed anger won't do any good. But public outrage leads to laws being changed and prevention programs getting started. Sooooo... I really don't get your point.

Laws changed in regards to specific incidents, are almost always universally terrible with a host of unintended consequences.

The real question is how effective the laws are. If they're enacted due to public outcry, the gains are at best short term, and a sense of buyer's remorse can take over in the long run.

So...I can kind of understand the OP's confusion. I'd recommend getting society to be angry but set taking action aside until we've all calmed down. The biggest obstacle to that is the evolution of the news cycle, so expiration dates form on outrage over a particular story. It's a form of hell, really.
