As I’m reading the post on Amish people, I’m also watching the news. Something interesting made me pop my head up as the newscaster stated a headline consisting of young adults putting a video on YouTube. And how we always stated that our life is based on YouTube, with everything we do. But one question, what makes people put such horrible things on YouTube? Just as the news was informing me, a group of young adults decided to beat the life out of another girl, and taping it. Not only that, they decided to post it on YouTube. Are they insane? Can people really not get enough of technology? It’s gruesome, horrible and just disgusting that people get a kick of it. It must have been so hilarious to them that they thought people across the world would enjoy watching it. Well I personally, would never watch something like that. YouTube shouldn’t be the source to show EVERYTHING the world wants to show. Where did the whole thought of privacy go?

When I first heard about what those girls had did, I was horrified! The worst part was that it all started over MySpace drama, and that raises an interesting question. Is technology an instigator of increased violence or is it merely a new tool that expresses what is already in existance? What do you think?
