Too Sensitive

Gary Cruse notes a news item which isn’t making the news.

"THE video only lasts four minutes or so — grue some (sic) scenes of torture from the days when Saddam Hussein’s thugs ruled Abu Ghraib prison. I couldn’t bear to watch, so I walked out until it was over."

...

"In fact, just four or five reporters showed up for the screening at the American Enterprise Institute think tank, which says it got the video via the Pentagon. Fewer wrote about it."

Gary’s concluding comment on the news that isn’t making the news, in comparison to what’s in the news.

"A society too sensitive for arousal to self defense will die. It’s Darwin’s way."
