Japan 9.0 magnitude earthquake

[mahawirasd]

now now boys, play nice.

i do not mean to digress from the original thread post, but really: the death of one man is a tragedy, but the death of a hundred is just statistics.

personally i feel that man has did this unto themselves with their ceaseless and haphazard exploitation of mother nature. Hopefully one day man will learn that they are not the masters of nature and should not be too proud of themselves.

We all live, we all die, what matters is what you do in between. Have we really contributed something to this spaceship earth or are we just going through the motions?

because although the tsunami is a disaster, i feel that there is a greater and more ominous disaster that we have -and seemingly perpetually- omitted from the headlines: inequality. This man made beast actually debilitates more lives, and continues to do so over the centuries, compared to a tsunami.
