No end to these horrible events
Muse #146 - Canada in the news again for the wrong reasons
There is no end to “hate” events. And this time it was Canada’s turn. Four members of a Muslim family who for no fault except for walking on the street were run over by a driver of a truck with one 9-year-old surviving the event. I am aghast at this happening with no words to explain why such a senseless thing should even happen in the first place.
In such a multi-cultural society, every person is an outlier. But, yet there is the branding of some visible minorities as not meeting certain norms and just for being themselves. I feel the pain and empathize with the pain of this shocking thing that happened to this one family.
