what is this country coming to when stuff like this is allowed to go on.
Animal cruelty isn't new. What this kid did, and puppy mills are not a new thing. We just didn't hear about it back in "the good old days." Ignorance is bliss -- if you didn't know it happened, than it didn't.
With our 24-hour news channels and the internet, we know so much more about what is going on all over the country -- and the world -- than we did fifty years ago. So, yeah, it can look like things are getting worse.
Maybe you are ready to write off the nation, but I'm not. What is this country coming to? A lot of good things, IMO -- and some bad things, too.
I tend to focus my energy on "what can be," rather than wax nostalgic over "good old days" that never really existed except in people's naive childhood memories.

Nice post CD. The memory does have a tendency to be rather conveniently selective while in a nostalgic haze. Thanks for the positive uplifting post.
