Kirb Slam Rejection Boy

I saw a viral video of a young boy asking a girl for her phone number and then slamming her head down on the pavement and stumping on her head because she said no. I felt angry and disgusted at the same time. 

I was given the impression they were filming the incident because of a bet, a wager that hinged on her giving her number. Relationship bets on their own are already disrespectful to women. 

They were probably filming the incident as evidence of a bet outcome but it didn't go their way because the girl said no. The boy was angered by the rejection so he grabbed the girl and slammed her head down on the pavement leaving the girl unconscious. He then stumped on her head while she was still knocked out. She could have died from the injury she received. I felt very angry and I felt disgusted because that is a very cruel thing to do to another person. They were behaving like animals. 

I was also angry with the person filming because he didn't try to stop the boy from causing more harm, he sounded like he was enjoying the drama. It is like there were two phsycopaths that found eachother and we're working in tandem. 

Here is video about the incident Kirb Slam Rejection Video.

Then later the boys mum was interviewed outside a court room; no apology, no regret or remorse,  she was defending him: total shame. I even think her excuses were lies but even if they weren't, the violence wasn't merited. I didn't see the Dad there, in my experience I find that men that grew up without their fathers are usually like that, they lack self control and have a violent nature. 

Imagine if that is your daughter or niece. 

What can I do? I show the truth and I look at things knowing the world is the way it is. 

Scroll Away

Social media across all platforms has become very much like a stinking open sewer; they're filled with angry violent videos and hateful messages. I have become sick of it all. I don't want to be angry because of a violent video or annoyed because of false dogma. 

I go on social media to post my greetings and blogs, then I get out. I can go to the news articles directly and read science blogs. 

I like the Express site because they follow interesting projects like new railways and buildings. I ignore the other stuff they post. The metro is an all rounder. Bucks free press talks about stuff near me. 

Until I can get my feeds under control. I won't spend much time on social media. 

Flow Change

In recent days I noticed they managed to put lithium power cells inside standard cylindrical batteries and it is quite common to see batteries that can store 2500 milliamps of current. This means just one 'AA' battery can release 2.5 amps over an hour.  It can power my 50 inch TV for a while if it was connected. My radio can take 4 AA batteries. 4 of those things would power my radio all day. I don't know how long my radio would last on 10 amps though, I never tried it. I'm sure it can stay on all day and still have plenty of power the next day. 

AA batteries are small cylinder shaped batteries with a raised bump on one side for the positive charge and a flat side for negative charge. The negative flat side is usually held in place with a spring that doubles as an electrode. I don't know why they do it like that. 

In recent months, I noticed X social media spurts out videos full of violence, people fighting and throwing things and stuff like that. I started clicking the 'Not interested in this' menu, I don't want to get angry. I want to learn. Sometimes it is better to go directly to the news and science pages. 

I added a shortcut to my local digital newspaper Bucks Free press today. On the smartphone chrome browser, you can add a shortcut to the home screen, the link then appears along side the shortcut to your apps. 

Going direct to digital newspapers is the way I react to excessive violence on social media. I cut out the middle man.
