I thought that was brilliant. It says something about humanity, how we try and make ourselves feel better by creating enemies and ridiculing others. Something to hate, something to taunt, gives the mob a unified goal. We see it in the schoolyard; we see it from our political leaders. It's also the old 'car crash' syndrome - we have this morbid fascination with seeing someone get mangled up - we daren't look yet cannot resist a peek. We can be heartless and cold - especially in a group situation where we forget who we are as individuals - perhaps this originates from the R-complex in our brain?
