Sick sick world what is wrong with people

I continue to believe that people are intrinsically good. And every now and then you see an exceptional example as per the bloke scaling the balconies to rescue the child. He fully deserves his accolades but I believe it is human nature to put ourselves at risk - or at least inconvenience - to help others.
 
Right on cue:
Some reaction to the incident has focused on a man on the balcony of the neighbouring fourth-floor flat, who appears to be close enough to the boy to lift him before Mr Gassama arrives.

But the neighbour told Le Parisien newspaper that he was holding on to the boy's hand but could not pull him up because of a divider separating the two balconies.

"I didn't want to take the risk of letting go of his hand, I thought it better to do things step by step," he said.

The father lived on the sixth-floor of the building in northern Paris, the building's concierge told BFMTV.

The boy had already fallen two storeys before somehow managing to grab hold of the fourth-floor balcony, according to this version of events.

LONDON (Reuters) - A man accused of being a member of a white supremacist group campaigning to start a race war in Britain pleaded guilty on Tuesday to plotting to kill an elected Member of Parliament (MP).

Jack Renshaw, 23, admitted buying a machete described by its manufacturer as “19 inches of unprecedented piercing and slashing power at a bargain price”, for the purpose of killing opposition Labour MP Rosie Cooper.

Renshaw also pleaded guilty to making a threat to kill a female police officer.

He was one of six alleged members of the far-right extremist group National Action appearing at London’s Old Bailey court.

I can see why deliberately displaying their poor humour in front of those involved in the tragedy should be considered illegal.

I absolutely disagree that there's anything that should be exempt from being considered funny or worthy of ridicule. That's an entirely principled and selfless opinion - nothing to do with me trying to increase sales of my World Trade Centre Jenga game.
