I have to agree with this, Without meaning to get too side-tracked from the subject of the post, I think social media proliferates how much stuff like this the average person sees. Whilst 10-20 years ago the same may have happened, it'd probably have made a small section of a local newspaper if it got any traction at all, nowadays it can be in front of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of people on their Facebook pages etc only moments after stuff like this happens. It only takes a few clicks and a publish button to reach them. I don't think society has necessarily got
